Interesting tidbits: Vinny’s sire Khartoum holds the record for maintaining the largest band (22!) ever documented in the park. He has sired more foals than any other stallion to date. Vinny was not so successful – although he occasionally acquired a few mares, the longest he ever maintained a band was for about a year and a half.
