I don't love him as a potential great sire. Even though I also loved him as a runner. Eskendereya on the other hand, kinda surprised that his have not looked good. On paper hes the total package.

They were both really good horses. I would have thought that they both would be good potential sires. I wouldn't have been nearly as high on Super Saver. But I think Super Saver is actually by far the best looking of the three. That is why I always check with people in Kentucky. It's always good to know which horses have the best conformation. The ones with the good conformation have a better chance of producing horses with good conformation. Not that that always matters. The Tapits are nothing special to look at but they are great horses. It's definitely not an exact science. That is for sure.

Belmont, Race 3 this upcoming Friday.
650k Super Saver baby for Tony Dutrow. 3 blah works then the obvious tightener. Based on the work, the price, the jockey and the trainers stats at the meet the horse might be odds on.

I hate Eskendereya's conformation. Too downhill.
