It's hard to imagine another horse ever coming along even like Skip Away in terms of combining elite quality performances, consistency, durability, travel, and constant campaign from the latter part of a 2yo season all the way to the end of a 5-year-old season.
I don't see how another Skip Away is even possible in this climate.

It'll never happen again, you'd need a perfect storm in horse, owner and trainer and their ability to fend off the breeding offers.. Horses like Skip Away are gone for good and won't be coming back.
