"Idaho has all the right credentials for success at stud" - Irish Field
“Idaho was a very solid, consistent racehorse – sound, clear-winded with a good mind. I think he would have been an impressive winner of the St Leger but for almost getting brought down in the straight and he showed that when winning the Hardwicke Stakes at Royal Ascot.” - Aidan O'Brien
