Default Quality Road

Quality Road is the 2014 Leading Freshman Sire. What made him so good and where does his future take him?

I would suspect there will be plenty more offspring of Quality Road at "theaters near by' for as long as he is alive and breeding.

He might be off to a good start, but he'll never be anything compared to Golden Missile as a sire.

Only time will tell. He has many years left to catch up with him.

The Golden Missle reference is one of the longest-running 'inside jokes' in Derby Trail lore.. I can't begin to explain. Should be safe to say that Quality Road will have a better stallion career than Golden Missle. He has already.
