I agree that he sired fragile horses, but I certainly wouldn't say "fast" ones.
He's actually won the four major Classic distance races for 3-year-olds with four different differnt horses.
Derby: Grindstone (who closed with a furious rally to get up)
Preakness: Red Bullet
Belmont: Empire Maker
Travers: Unshaded (who came with a big late run to nail Albert the Great)
Most of his horses were two-turn routers who came from off-the-pace.
