Don't forget Frost Giant.

He is a solid turf sire, but that alone doesn't tend to be popular in the US.

Hold Me Back did run a 105 on dirt... I know he bombed today.

Ok, but the Travers prior to the running was considered a let-down of a race. Then it was run over an off track. Lastly, despite the Beyer, Hold Me Back was never seriously threatened the winner and was defeated by open lengths.

Really, flash in the pan First Samurai was his best dirt horse to date (and that was from his first crop right?).

Giants Causeway has a nice derby horse, Belmont Race 5 today.

My mistake. I meant to say Winstar, like I did earlier in the thread. They are both Winstar owned but they are not both Giants Causeways.
