It is surprising, but horses with this kind of record - good but not outstanding - succeed at stud as often as the stars. The giants of the last 20 years, Storm Cat and Mr. Prospector, were good horses, but not quite at the championship level on the track. The horse who beat SC in the BC Juvie and won the 2yo championship was Tasso, whose stud career is better not mentioned.
