Certainly these two were decent. Man o' War sired American Flag and Crusader, who won successive Belmont Stakes in 1925 and 1926. Both colts were generally considered the best three-year-old colts of their year, and Crusader was also largely accepted as the best racehorse of 1926. |

Man o' War also sired War Admiral. War Admiral won 21 of his 26 starts, including the Pimlico Special and the U.S. Triple Crown in 1937. War Admiral was voted 1937 American Horse of the Year. |
