You sure about that?

To this point in their career they have very similar credentials. Cliff's Edge didn't run a real fast race at 2 either despite two graded stakes wins.

I stand by my $10k stud fee assessment on Court Vision.

You are wrong about that. The Cliff's edge got a 101 Beyer in his second to last 2yo start - and a 94 Beyer in his final start - while giving weight all around and racing wide. Both graded stakes wins.

He was already Jerry Brown's Derby horse at this point I believe.

It's all about consistancy....and Phil's just trying to keep all of his posts in this thread of equal inaccuracy.

If the Beyers were that high I stand corrected, I remembered them both being below 90.

I'm trying hard.

But my point remains the same: Court Vision would be a $10k sire if he retired today.

He was also the morning line favorite for the Derby. Didn't he lose a shoe or two in the Derby as well?

He still ran better than my pick (Master David) who is STILL trying to finish that race.

He's not only still trying to finish THAT race.....I think he's still trying to finish a $35K claimer at Delta.

His 101 Beyer in the Iroquios was the highest ever earned in the history of that race.

Harlan's Holiday's 99 is 2nd. Exploit's 98 is 3rd.

I know that there's absolutely zero correlation but interesting that two of the highest ML favorites in the history of the Derby topped the list.

I could be wrong but I believe Master David was sold to South American interests for 35k. May have been Puerto Rico, I dont recall. Whatever it was its a far cry from lexington.
