Strong Contender to Stonewall

Doesn't seem a good strategy to me since the majority of the horses would be better served on the track this year but I guess they can blow their millions however they want.

Currently I have a hard time seeing any of the stallions they stand having any major success.

Me too but at least if they have six with little chance of success their chance of one succeeding is a little better.

Not really

oh, you know those pages and pages of ads in bloodhorse will ensure all the success they can handle...

who needs a broodmare band to support a stallion when you can just run ads for second tier horses--other than medaglia doro that is. and i'm being too kind to some of hte others by calling them second tier!

Though we dont have any idea what their goals are, they probably should have gone after an established sire to build around instead of the current "throw enough crap aginst the wall..." theory they have now. Not that I am a huge buyer but I usually have around $600k - $1 million a year to spend for clients. And I can say that I don't have a great deal of interest in any of thier stallions. I will look at the babies but personally I hate buying horses by young stallions that I dont think will be good stallions.
