Focusing on the ten colts who have earned or drawn in to the final, four are sons of Kadabra while three are Striking Sahbra. The other three starters are by Angus Hall (Senator Hall), Southwind Lustre (Mopey Corey) and Malabar Maple (Mapleson).
In recent decades the dominant trotting line has been Valley Victory - Muscles Yankee, but with the line nearly absent from the Gold Final, with only Mopey Corey (Southwind Lustre is a son of Valley Victory) to defend the champs, Ontario is proving once again to be the home of outstanding outcross sires.
Furthermore, of the other nine, none are by Speedster or Speedy Crown line stallions, but rather all are from the resurgent Volomite line (even pacing sensation Somebeachsomewhere is of the Volomite sireline):

Among world-class trotting sires, Kadabra is probably exceeded only by Revenue with regard to obscurity of top line.

For a long time the Super Bowl and Supergill offspring were the second major line after Speedy Crown and his great grandson Valley Victory, but the emergence of the Garland Lobell sons has threatened this second line status. With Striking Sahbra and Malabar Maple, the line is well represented in the race for the cream of Ontario's two year old trotting crop.

Garland Lobell son Angus Hall and his full brothers Conway Hall and Andover Hall are the ascendant outcross line transitioning to dominant line. In the same way that there are three dominant lines in pacing (Abercrombie - Art Major, No Nukes - Western Hanover, and Cam Fella), it can be confidently stated that the success of Garland Lobell sons and grandsons has established his line as a third dominant force in trotting, already challenging the Super Bowl-Supergill lin sires for second spot (after the arguably still supreme Speedy Crown - Valley Victory males).
