I think there are a BUNCH of horses that are a better value at $10,000 than T-berg. Hell, Point Given is now standing for $15,000, and while he certainly hasn't dazzled as a sire, I definitely think he would be worth the extra 5 grand.
Obviously each individual mare's best match is different, but if you want to find an inexpensive sire inbred to Mr. P, I think there are a lot better options than a horse like T-berg who seems relatively weak in terms of pedigree and on-track performance.
We're just going to have to disagree. It'll probably be years before we know what his foals are capable of anyway by which time I'm sure we'll have forgotten about this thread. Maybe by then they'll have found a surface on which TGM will have excelled.
