Maybe Action This Day really did have back problems?

That was a nice debut by his very green son today at DMR, Majormotionpicture.

With this horse, ATD has already exceeded expectations at stud for a lot of people.

Shockingly, that was his fifth winner so far!

That was a really good debut... that horse has some serious talent. And I agree, ATD has already exceeded my expectations of him at stud... with one winner.

You mean "Action One Day"

candy rides are also very good

I was there, and thought the horse would run well, being half to Liquidity and all. That being said, to win first out from the inside is pretty remarkable. I hope for big things from 'Picture.

Del Mar rules, by the way. It's sacrilege, I know, but having visited both, Del Mar certainly gives Saratoga a run for its money.

Night Action (Action This Day) wins the $200,000 Cradle (for 2yr olds) at River Downs yesterday.

With him being a son of Kris S., I'd watch out for ATD horses on the grass as well.

It isn't just the sire either. He is also out of a Trempolino mare that was graded stakes placed on turf. Trempolino himself, of course, was an Arc winner.
Like most people, I never thought much of this horse as a racehorse, but you are absolutely right, his progeny certainly could be effective on the lawn.
