Storm Cat wouldn't be in my top 10.
Is Tinners Way still alive? I'd go to him....keep that Big Red sire line alive!!

Yes, he is. He's out in Texas.

I'd rather Innkeeper, though. Although, he's more a performance horse sire, he's well conformed and still breeds to a few race mares.

Default Thorograph Numbers

It is interesting using the average thorograph number for sire offspring how many sires start to look like decent bargains when you compare them against their much more expensive counterparts....

Indeed, apparently Tinners Way is standing for $2000.
That is really the kind of stallion I would take a shot on though. The ones that were fabulously bred, and were excellent on the track, but have not been that great at stud.
Grindstone and Skip Away would be on my list as well.

For their bloodlines, More Than Ready, Devil His Due, and Pleasant Tap.

Do I have to race the baby or may I sell?

To race, Distorted Humor, Cozzene, Dynafomer, More than Ready (a filly, please) Smart Strike or maybe Johannesburg.

To sell, Storm Cat is still the most likely to sire a sales topper followed by AP Indy. Distorted Humor has also become a very good seller. Mr Greeley has suddenly become a monster seller too.

i'd like Two Davids and Connecticut for the lines. and i would recommend Alladin Rib and Mr Brilliant for theirs.

Then a more commercial route would be Easyfromthegitgo and Lost Soldier for the mare i have in mind.
