His pedigree is actually quite good. SSS was very talented but fragile. You have to remember that Saint Ballado also made his reputation at Ocala Stud and Sweetsouthernsaint appears to be on his way. His female line is also quite good. He gets quite a bit of stamina from Waquoit's daughter Ice Beauty.

If SNS were to run in the Belmont, which I have heard he might just do, I think he would be the horse to beat.
