Needs more Shamus Award or Savabeel.

It should only contain winners. Lonhro & Our Waverley Star out, Northerly & Surround in

Out

Lonhro
Our Waverley Star

Would also be tempted to try and sneak Surround in there, dominant 3yo filly with 47 would create interest

he probably would have won 1 more then retired to stud.
anyone rate his stud career? seems to be a tiny bit disappointing to me although he gets a lot of winners.

Lots of runners, reasonable output . Horses are generally very large. On the underperform side of expected but still very good. Will be a consistent sire of derby/oaks for winners for some time yet.

Was surprised to see them knock 25k off the stud fee this year but they’re trying to keep his numbers up and stayers never fashionable.
