Babamist was a stallion that had a profound impact on the American breeding industry, especially in the sport of eventing.
Babamist was foaled in Maryland, and ran in steeplechases for four years before his breeding career. His record was not particularly exceptional: out of 13 starts he had a record of 5-0-1 and earnings of $10,620.[1] He later was used as a fox hunter, show jumper, and eventer.[2]
Babamist is legendary as a producer of event horses. He is one of only a few American stallions to consistently produce offspring who compete at the top level of eventing.[3]
