Rainbow Quest gave us G1 St. Leger hero Nedawi when brought to a daughter of the champion Dahlia. Nedawi sired Mr. Nedawi, a G1 winner in both Brazil and Uruguay.
Thanks a lot for a very interesting piece. May I just add another example when Juddmonte was on the losing end regarding DQ:s in classic races: Price Tag (Dansili) passed the post first in the 2006 Poule d'Essai des Pouliches (Gr1), French 1000 Gns, but was demoted to third at 33-1. All to the obvious disappointment of Khalid Abdullah who was already on his way to the podium. Price Tag did win a Gr1 later in her career though, when transferred to the US.

Mandaloun's 5th dam Song Sparrow gave us Cormorant, and she is also the 5th dam of Copper Bullet.

Nedawi stood in Brazil at one of my favorite farms over there, Fazenda Mondesir. ~ Sid
Great things were expected when Dahlia was brought to Northern Dancer. Did Nedawi possess any of his damsire's known physical attributes?
I would say yes. He was a compact and muscular colt, but a chestnut like The Minstrel and his dam.
Was there a valid expectation that Northern Dancer sirelines would work with the champion mare when her mates were selected?
That’s a question for Nelson Bunker Hunt
