Coolmore fees for new stallions

Im assuming you're ranking them in order of class of pedigree? If thats the case, I would putt Aussie Rules first, followed by Oratorio and then Catcher in the Rye. Of course, these are unproven studss...

Interestingly enough, Danehill Dancer has every right to be a solid stallion. For those interested in pedigrees and class of female family, both Danehill Dancer and Street Sense hail from the bluehen Lianga, who is their 3rd and 4th dam, respectively.

As a type of racehorse, Aussie Rules fits in between those two.. not quite up to Oratorio's level and the latter did win a G1 at 2 and 2 of the biggest 10f races in Europe at 3. and better than what the Catcher showed. dont know enough about breeding to class them by prospects at stud..

Oh ok, thats what I was asking... if you ranking them on pedigree or performance. My ranking is more on pedigree.

thanks for the HRun opinion.
I was thinking the same, but I dont always have a good feel for the Euro market.

as for next year's first crop sires, I can not wait.
2003 was awesome with Hawk Wing, Dubai Destination, Dalakhani, Alamshar, High Chaparral, Nayef(my favorite) and of course the big horse, Falbrav running.
now we will start to see their offspring.
clear something up for me though.
where does Falbrav stand?
Im assuming in 2 locations depending on the time of year, but I thought it was announced after his retirement that he would stand in Japan along with other 2003 retirees Moon Ballad and Grandera.
but a friend told me he was in Newmarket.
wherever he is,
I just want to see his offspring run.
he was so game at 8-12f.
I guess we are a year away from Rakti and Doyen's runners.
want to see those also.
