The mare is also a full sister to Inflamed, who is the dam of grade 1 winner and five-time graded stakes winner Mo Forza .
A 9-year-old son of Munnings , Om became a winner in his second start, a maiden special weight at Del Mar that he won by 7 1/4 lengths and defeated future Triple Crown winner American Pharoah . At 3, he was tested in graded company six times, coming away the victory three times and placing in the other three. He won the Del Mar Derby (G2T), Twilight Derby (G2T), and Mathis Brothers Mile (G2T), and was third in the Hollywood Derby (G1T). Om was runner-up twice in the Breeders' Cup Turf Sprint (G1T), just missing by a nose to Obviously in 2016 and was a fast-closing second to Belvoir Bay in 2019. He retired with a 7-7-6 record from 32 starts and earned $1,355,082.
