What about Eddington? Even though I don't really remember if he did anything memorable as a 2yo, I do remmber that Unbridled was a pretty good as 2yo, and the dam-side is loaded with top juvenile performers (Chief's Crown, Sir Ivor, etc.).
On paper I thought Eddington looked like a good stallion prospect. He was versatile (a graded stakes winner on dirt and turf I believe), Unbridled is a good sire of sires, and Eddington always looked to me like he had a good deal of (not always realized) ability.
Does his first crop of runners look like anything?

CD R7 tomorrow ($30k MCL @ 4.5F) has what I believe to be the first starter from Eddington.

*Edited to remove Southern Image.

i thought southern image already had his first winner?

edit~yeah, he did:

Grade I winner Southern Image , whose first winner won in Mexico, was represented by his initial winner in the United States May 14 at Hollywood Park. His daughter Southern Fireball set a track record of :50.67 for 4 1/2 furlongs while winning by 4 1/4 lengths for King Arthur Farms, Michael Lewis, and Robert Masters

Wow! :50.67?!?
These things are too hard to keep up with. Grand Reward has one in there too, he has had a couple starters, any winners yet?
