In terms of impact of recent on the breed, an interesting way of looking at it is that there are currently only eight stallions that stand for more than $150,000. Two of them are Canadian-breds (Awesome Again and Smart Strike); two of them are by Canadian champions (Ghostzapper by Awesome Again, and Awesome Again by Deputy Minister). And let's not forget that the 2007 North American Champion 3YO, Older Mare, Turf Horse and Horse of the Year were all sired by irrelevant stallions born in Canada.
