Just looked at the leading sires on the all weather over here for this year so far. It's interesting to see that Dansili is top (he finished top last year, too).
Looking down the list for a mainline American sire i have to go a fair way down it before i come to Rahy who is the highest placed (currently) American sire in the list. Then followed further down by Danzig and then Giant's Causeway, Theatrical, Fu Peg and Kingmambo.
None of these sires have had many runners so far on the All weather surfaces, so their winners to runners percentages are all fairly high.
Looking back to the 2006 season, which should give us a better idea, again i have to go a fair way down the list to fins the first mainstream American sire..... and again that is Rahy and then Aljabr and Theatrical.
