At a glance I would say that he has some very good traits
Raise A Native on the Sire side and Nijinsky II on the dam

Maybe too much French blood he may tend to surrender at the drop of a hat

teasing.
Actually, Luthier and Carvin represent the old-style French breeding that was known for staying like a mother-in-law (as somebody calls it).

Exclusive Native, sire of Affirmed, is a good staying source, Heathen and Janus were both middle-distance performeres and sires (10-12f); looks like Solstein was a miler in France. Don't have my research library with me here in Paris so can't say much more until I get home.
