Great Athletes have that X factor but Bymyside also
had a wonderful temperament, and she would follow Tony around the paddock never
seeming to leave his side and so the naming of this great mare became easy for
Tony and Bymyside was born.
The Sire of Bymyside, Kambea Thunder Chick is by
the imported son of Jet Deck in Thundering Jet a prolific sire of winners in
the early days of sprint racing including the undefeated Battle Deck.
The Dozen Editions line will live on through her very
talented progeny with Tony already looking to the future having bred Steal The
Thunder to the brilliant Louisiana Senator $500,000 Si 111
