Here is Forty Niner's best son in terms of stallion success... with debuters.

Distorted Humor:

2011: 55-7-5-6 (13% wins) 1.26 ROI

* One of the 2nd's was at 60/1 odds. Winners included sky-high speed figures from Maclean's Music and Machen.

2010: 63-14-5-10 (22% wins) 2.76 ROI
2009: 83-18-13-8 (22% wins) 3.23 ROI
2008: 73-10-7-6 (14% wins) 2.00 ROI (2nd at 61/1 odds at CD)
2007: 93-13-16-9 (14% wins) 1.59 ROI (five 2nd's at double digit odds)

2002-to-2005: 24-for-124 (19% wins) $17.24 avg win mutual.

I didn't realize DH had such a mediocre year as a debut sire.
I have got where I really look for them. Especially with trainers with low first out win%, where I know they will be a price.
I did cash nicely on Power World at CD for Neil Howard.
He broke dead last by a lot, passed them all going 5f and paid $52.

Good stuff guys. Seems like I see a lot of Wildcat Heir firsters winning. Am I just making that up or is he a pretty good sire of firsters?

[Calzone Lord]

He had a great first year -- so good win percentage wise that it probably hurt his value a little.

The past two years, he's had quite a few more 2nd's than wins.


Wildcat Heir:

2011: 64-4-10-8 (6% wins) 1.07 ROI (three 2nd's at double digits odds)
2010: 80-12-13-8 (15% wins) 1.83 ROI
2009: 60-17-11-7 (28% wins) 2.36 ROI

Dehere was one of my favorte debut sires before he got deported. Since coming back to America, he's starting to do well again.

Last year, Dehere's debuters won 9-of-44 (20% wins) with a $3.05 ROI.

However, Dehere is killing the world as a broodmare sire of 1st-time starters:

2011: 69-15-5-8 (22% wins) 3.31 ROI

* 2nd place finishers at 10/1 and 17/1. 3rd place finishers at 10/1, 14/1, 43/1 and 54/1 odds!

2010: 61-11-4-4 (18% wins) 4.34 ROI
2009: 56-10-4-8 (18% wins) 2.46 ROI (28/1 Zito debuter 2nd)
2008: 63-14-7-9 (22% wins) 2.50 ROI
2007: 70-13-8-10 (19% wins) 2.50 ROI

* in 2007 alone, 2nd place finishes at 13/1, 21/1, 27/1, and 37/1 odds. 3rd place finishes at 12/1, 16/1, 30/1, and 46/1 odds!!


Freaking amazing. Every single year he had a massive profit from a sample size of at least 56 different horses.

I think Dehere got shipped out again. He went to Turkey with Lion Heart.

Ouch.

Salt Lake is a pretty sneaky good broodmare sire of debuters.

2011: 94-12-5-9 (13% wins) 1.94 ROI (Includes 10/1 winner Agave Kiss)
2010: 76-14-7-4 (18% wins) 2.20 ROI (2nd's at 26/1 and 46/1 odds)
2009: 80-11-8-8 (14% wins) 3.64 ROI
2008: 89-16-11-14 (18% wins) 3.25 ROI

* In 2008 alone, 2nd place finishes at 15/1, 15/1, 30/1, and 47/1. As well as 3rd place finishes at 10/1, 12/1, 13/1, 14/1, 30/1, 35/1, and 46/1.

2007: 73-5-4-7 (7% wins) 0.59 ROI (23/1 and 83/1 shots both finished 2nd. Would have REALLY reversed the ROI in a surprisingly bad year)

Dehere has really been at it again in 2012.

As a sire, he just had a debuter win by 2+ lengths at Oaklawn and pay $132.80 to win last month.

As a broodmare sire, this year he's 8-2-1-1 (25% wins) $5.05 ROI. His 2nd place finisher was 34/1 odds. One of the winners paid $31.60 and the other was Greydar (100 Beyer on debut at the distance of a mile just a few weeks ago and $8.80 payoff)


Here are Dehere's stats with debuters over a 3-year span from 1999 to 2002 right as he got deported...



34-for-151 (22% winners) and average win mutual of $18.76 !!!


It's really remarkable stuff. His offspring must really have a way of fooling a lot of trainers in the morning.

[Alabama Stakes]

still remember him (Dehere ) winning at Saratoga with a breathtaking late run as a 2 year old. He just gobbled ground. Might even have had Eddie Maple riding him.

[Calzone Lord]

He was a great early season 2yo sprinter.

Dehere's incredible Sanford Stakes win:
