Some idiot on a racing forum years ago decided that UBS were "fragile" and were "ruining the breed". That fallacious opinion has taken on a life of it's own repeated here. Sure...the people who pay hundreds of thousands of dollars for UBS's progeny are all" stupid" and just like to "waste money on fragile UBS racers". UBS sires alot of fast, very good racers. Injuries are an occupational hazard for ALL thoroughbred race horses...UBS is no more "fragile" than any top sire who has been breeding for years. I's like someone to present a valid statistic that proves UBS sires more fragile horses than other sires vis a vis his number of foals who raced and "broke down" vs other sires with comparable time breeding w/ same amount progeny who race. That doesn't exist. All internet bs. |

![]() ![]() DrugsS is somewhat of an "expert" on the topic of race horses racing...so I agree with him... You add nothing to the thread except what you think is a "clever" comment. |

![]() LOL, drugs is entitled to his opinion. I have watched enough horses over the past 15 years to know what I see in US progeny.

Unusual Heat was a drop down claimer who had stakes level ability - but a lot of issues .. and he's like the one a lot of people are starting to consider for the best blending of decent quality and decent durability in his offspring. A lot of his offspring happened to have been trained by a guy who runs his horses like crazy and is more a fan of Lukas like spacing between starts than say the Frankel like spacing that has taken over. Also - a lot of his offspring are in California .. and it's not hard finding races for them because most handle both turf and syn very well and many are Cal breds which leave them with options in both Cal bred and open races. Many also handle any distance from 6f to 10f |
