Pedigree notes

Cordon Rouge is inbred 4x4 to 1852 English dual Classic winner and seven-time English champion sire Stockwell. He was produced from Framework, who was imported to Argentina in 1888. She, in turn, was produced from Stitchery, a daughter of 1863 St. Leger Stakes winner St. Albans. Stitchery's dam Patchwork was sired by Young Melbourne from Makeshift, by 1850 Derby Stakes and St. Leger Stakes winner Voltigeur.
