早熟，短途性能，宜跑一哩或以下路程。
Dam
其母AALIYAH本身贏1700米，其後產下KATIE’S DIAMOND 2勝1200米，退役後誕下神殿錦標與瑪麗皇后錦標兩項二級賽冠軍「演戲」（DRAMATISED）。另外PERENNITE 2勝2000米及2200米。家族成員初期可應付短途，成熟後宜跑一哩或以上路程。
MEHMAS, a son of ACCLAMATION, was trained by Richard Hannon with a record of 4 wins, 3 seconds and 1 third in 8 starts including 1st in G2 July Stakes and Richmond Stakes, also place-getters in G1 National Stakes and Middle Park Stakes under his usual partner Frankie Dettori’s control. He joined the stallion roster in 2016 with 45 black type contests winners, including G1 winner BELIEVING, GOING GLOBAL and SUPREMACY. His service fee in 2025 is EUR€ 70,000. GIANT BALLON was sold at tender price HKD$ 3,000,200 in 2025 Hong Kong International Sale where he finished 200M in 10.72s during the breeze up run. His sire MEHMAS is a precocious runner while his next generations ran on well in sprint events. His dam HEAVENLY RIVER was trained by Karl Burke and were place-getters from 1200M to 2066M while his full-sister QUATTROELLE ran on well in middle distance events in United States including the success in G2 and G3, also place-getter in G1. The bay gelding should be most suited from 1400M to 1800M and prefer good going.
