The Timeform Statistical Review, 2001.

“Hernando looks to have a bright future on the results of his first three crops... at least three smart colts in the shape of Asian Heights, Foreign Affairs and Mr Combustible are due to stay in training. Hernando should attract an even better class of mare in the light of his record so far and he seems sure to enhance his record further."

 

Tony Morris – World of Breeding – Racing Post, 28/12/01

“Most neglected significant sire: HERNANDO – again. When is he going to get noticed?”

 

Martin Percival – BBA Stallion News, 1/11/01

“HERNANDO is another horse who has done exceptionally well at stud. His first crop of three year olds in 2000 included the French Derby winner HOLDING COURT and this year his 1998 crop included MR COMBUSTIBLE and ASIAN HEIGHTS. Having made such a promising beginning to his stud career, he has to have every chance of being able to emulate his own sire NINISKI who was Champion sire with ten individual Group 1 winners to his credit.”
