Best Sire of the last 40 years
 
be honest

41 years since Nijinsky II was 1st foaled, otherwise I cannot understand why Northern Dancer is not on the list.

Storm Cat. I do not believe any other stallion stood for 500K.

Danehill

I believe Northern Dancer should be on that list, 2 of his sons and 2 of his grandson's made the list, his more recent sires with his blood are Danehill, El Prado and Deputy Minister. However if he isn't I'd vote for Sadler's Wells as my second choice.

Voted for Mr. Prospector, would've been for Slew but he wasn't an option.
