Fupeg? Seriously? City Zip has 6 stakes winners this year with 14 stakes wins, Fupeg has 4 with 5 wins. His one 2009 graded win was the Derby Mexicano (no joke.) City Zip is ahead of him in every category.

Ok, so, like I'm totally bored and said, what the hey, why not compare FuPeg to City Zip myself. Here's what I found in the first stallion list I looked at.
Fupeg ranks 6th on the General Sire list with a hair under 9 mil in earnings this year.
CZ is 40th with 4.5 mil.
# of crops: Fupeg 6, CZ 5
# of starters: FP 394, CZ 168. Gotta be a dual hemisphere thing.
# of winner: 136 to 98.
Repeat winners: 51 to 40
Stakes winner: 4 to 6
GSW: 1 each
I have no idea how accurate the southern hemisphere stats are. I am pretty sure though that they are not complete, as I found an Aussie graded winner to go with the Mexican one.
I'm not really sure how Fupeg has 9 mil in earnings with stats like these, but after looking over those stats, I'd still go with him at 15k over CZ, especially since you have a chance at hitting a home run with him.
I'm surprised nobody on here has mentioned that filly of his that won recently, She's Funomenal, at HP.
I have no illusions about that filly staying sound or good for a long time, but still, that was a pretty impressive debut.
