The one's I have been around have all been hot, nervous , iron jawed and dumb but Im sure there are nice one's out there. If I were an owner or breeder I would get away from the Storm Cat line, I dont like most of them but thats just me.

The Storm Cat line is too prevelant. It getting harder and harder to find breeding without it somewhere. Storm Cat has a habit of producing nasty, brittle horses. The good ones are really good. But the bad traits are passed off too.

Best sire: A.P. Indy and distorted humor. Most overrated: Kingmambo amd Broad Brush. Most underated: Quiet Am. and silver deputy. Best Future Sire: Bernardini and Ghostzapper. Best broodmare sire: Relaunch and Deputy Minister. Howevever, the best sire in the "world" is Sunday Silence.

By the way, I would think that Street Cry is headed in the right direction.

AP Indy.
I know it is one of the more obvious choices, but there is a reason for that.
