Someone told me that Danzig was unraced? True?
Danzig was 3-for-3 on the track -- never raced against stakes company. Fragile, unproven, but talented horse and obviously a great sire.

And yes, of course there have been plenty of excellent stallions who weren't much as race horses. They appear through all time peroids of racing history.
