* Elusive Meteor displayed natural ability with a 1 win and 2 seconds in her first 4 career starts as a 3yo and then won a metropolitan race as a 4yo.
* Elusive Meteor is out of the stakes winning mare Golden Pedigree and is a half sister to the multiple group placed mare Aristocratic Miss.
* Aristocratic Miss is currently in training with the Tony and Calvin McEvoy stable and hasn't been beaten far at her last two starts in stakes race.

* Exceed and Excel will stand at a fee of $120,000 this season and his yearlings averaged just under $370,000 at the sales this year.
