"When those of my generation come to be asked by their grandchildren: 'Who was the greatest breeder, the outstanding sire, the best racehorse of your time?' the answer will probably be: ' Tesio, Nearco, Ribot'.
For it is unlikely that any modern breeder will achieve comparable success to that gained by Senator Tesio, while the influence of Nearco on the breed of the thoroughbred becomes more pronounced each year and horses of the caliber of Ribot are few and far between.
