I think of the Lanes End Stallions War Pass may be the best fit.

I think A.P. Indy could possible be one of the worst.....Unless you want a foal that could win the 2.5 mile jump races at Saratoga.
I would breed her to Smart Strike before A.P Indy.

They will have to be careful with who they breed her to because of her size.
You don't want her to visit Rock Hard Ten or you will get a Clydesdale.

Not sure. Some of the farms used to allow you to look up nicks w/ their stallions (Gainesway comes to mind), but I haven't tried to do it that way in a while.

airdrie does as well

Just realized that they have free enicks for every Lane's End stallion linked from their site.

Bloodhorse's Stallion Register has free hypomating TrueNicks through Equineline, for the farms that pony up for the service, I assume. The smaller the operation, the less likely you can do a TrueNick hypomating. Just look up AP Indy for example, look on the upper right of the page, there's a link to click on, and you enter the mare's name. It opens in another PDF window. AP Indy gives her an A++ http://www.equineline.com/extendedco...areRef=7156465

Midnight Lute is only a B+ and the results of the crosses it lists don't seem flashy, but he is a young sire, a ginormous specimen, and obviously has speed per his status as Champion Sprinter and two-time BC Sprint winner. Probably unlikely, and not my first choice, but not a complete disaster. Biggest plus, at 17.1 hands, he doesn't have to use a stepping stool.

If anybody's interested in trying to breed an uber turf horse, go to Dynaformer and you get a cross that's led to G1Ws Riskaverse, Film Maker, Barbaro, Gozzip Girl, and White Moonstone. Clearly Barbaro got his G1s on dirt, I just noticed the turf talent trend. http://www.equineline.com/extendedco...areRef=7156465 Hey, a good inbreeding to Roberto never hurt anybody. :)

I heard AP Indy didn't exactly throw the biggest footed horse. Is that true? I don't imagine a smaller hoof does a foal out of Zenyatta any favors.

What on earth does Smoothie wanna do to AP Indy? Do we need to alert the authorities?

Somebody wake me up when the foal is entered in a race.

If you go to eNicks.com, set up an account, you can type any mare into the 'Get an eNick' and it will shoot out the info.

You can also type the stallion and it will tell you if it is free or you gotta pay.

Where or when doesn't matter, I just want the opportunity to play against this massive underlay.
