    I am not sure that I understand your post!

    Frankel and Bullet Train are three parts siblings because they share the same dam, and the sire of Bullet Train is the grand-sire of Frankel.

    Edit: having read your post a few times, I think that you are describing the Frankel/Bullet Train Situation. The "horse" is Galileo, the "sire" is Sadlers Wells and the "mare" is Kind.

    Yes I reckon that’s it!

    Although I think a three-quarter sibling might also arise where two half brothers cover the same mare. Say Sea The Stars and Galileo cover the same mare.

    I think Zarkava was covered by both STS and Galileo, but I am not absolutely certain.
