I would hope everyone knew that:
Darley Arabian
Byerly Turk
Godolphin Barb
The Darley Arabian's line through his great great grandson, Eclipse is the most common. Matchem, the grandson of the Barb produced the line that gave us the likes of Man O War and Seabiscuit while Herod the great great grandson of the Turk has given us such stars as Ambiorix, Ambehaving and My Babu.
