Stonewall... wtf???

I think that Barbaro was all out that day, but Barbaro was actually slipping on the dirt a little bit while coming down the stretch and that actually cost him a little bit. Barbaro was better suited to that distance IMO too.

Value Plus has a nice pedigree, not that it made him much of a racehorse.
half to Roll Hennessy Roll and Majorbigtimesheet.
his dam was a stakes winner and I read somewhere 5 of her 7 won at first asking.

he should be an ideal win early sire.

I get why breeders would have interest there.
MDO should make an excellent sire of both turf and dirt runners.

the others, well its a lot of speculation and wishful thinking.

like mentioned earlier in this thread, the listed prices(which I am sure are not set in stone) seem very random.

I get Stonewall is trying to jump right into the market and make a splash but they would have been better served to bring in some of the very nice and productive sires that stand in Florida.

oh,
and on the Sharp Humor subject.
very nice racehorse.
just did not get a chance to run all that much.

why are so many good Distorted Humor runners NY breds?
he has never stood in NY has he?

I know you can have a state bred come from any sire, it just seems like I see a lot of Distorted Humor runners on past performaces sheets listed as NY breds.
i know he has stakes winners like Sensibly Chic, Commentator, FCide, and Sharp Humor.
but he has a lot of NY breds in general also.
can anyone shed some light on that for me?
thanks.
