Where are we getting this 571 foal number? According to the Stallion Register, Northern Afleet has sired 348 horses of racing age, 244 runners, 70 percent winners, and 14 stakes winners. Skip Away's numbers are pretty similar. Considering - again - the mares one probably got versus the other, I'd suggest Northern Afleet has done pretty darn well for himself.
This is a great discussion though as both are sixth-crop sires and it makes for a really good comparison.
