Question about breeding

[Pedigree Ann]

I would also suggest that if you aren't trying to breed a 12f horse, you need to find some speed in the mare. Lemon Drop Kid was a stayer who beat lesser horses with his class at shorter distances. It is my opinion that dirt runners who turn into 'turf' sires, like Affirmed did and LDK seems to be doing, are transmitting more stamina than is called for in today's dirt racing and need a mare with an injection of speed to get offspring suitable for the US market.
