I didn't realize DH had such a mediocre year as a debut sire.
I have got where I really look for them. Especially with trainers with low first out win%, where I know they will be a price.
I did cash nicely on Power World at CD for Neil Howard.
He broke dead last by a lot, passed them all going 5f and paid $52.
