Montjeu looks to be a cracker jack to me.

I think Lion Heart will throw some runners also, he definitely will have a good chance to have a champion with as many mares as he has visited. His miler speed will come through well. Especially down under.

Yeah, I like Lion Heart as well....not many horses alive that are more attractive than him...he was not only fast he is a looker....beautiful horse..

As for Montjue, he is off to a great start in Ireland and now Coolmore is really sending the better mares to him from what I'm hearing....Hurricane Run is considered by many as THE best European Classic performer that Coolmore has ever campaigned over there and he was just in Montjue's first crop, as was Motivator, etc......nice young stallion...

Empire Maker is going to be the NEXT SUPER STUD, no doubt in my mind. With the book of mares that he is getting, he is going to throw horses that win from 6f to 12f, turf/dirt or poly, it will not matter. I actually think he is going to be a better turf sire then dirt sire. Anees, of Unbridled progeny, was a great turf sire and his bottom is not NEARLY as strong as Maker's is. When his horses hit the turf, LOOK OUT!!!

I LOOK FORWARD to unloading against his 2 year olds going 5.5 furlongs or less, lots of money to be made there I think because people are going to unload on his horses. Once they start running 7f and longer with his horses, it is rubberband time....
