Very well written although I disagree with some of it. If you are the guy who runs the Churchill website, excellent job. You should hire yourself out to Darley because with all their money they should be able to put together a better site.

Darley has a ton of upside, but they are still unproven in the states. You would think with 50 stallions they would be able to do better than they do here. Sir Percy is from their Mark of Esteem though so I guess right now they are red hot.

Expect Corinthian to give Discrete Cat a run for the money in the Dwyer although if SNS shows up I would give him the edge over both.

Can't argue with Bernardini, although I still think Barbaro was the better horse, mainly because of his proven ability on all surfaces.

Watch out for Lael in the future. If they stop selling their horses to the Sheiks they could be the ones dominating american racing. Grandera who Darley now owns was theirs. George Washington and Barbaro were both theirs at one point and they have Showing Up and some nice mares.

Winstar is also interesting.
