I even have thought down the line I would love to have one of his offspring, like maybe offering a permanent pet status to a gelding in retirement, I would spoil it to death and brag on Daddy.

the significant thing to me about MDO besides all the things you mentioned is that his offspring should act on turf as well.
I always wanted to see MDO run in one of those Grade 1 turf races at Del Mar at 8 or 9f.
think he would have done very well, but obviously he had more money to make in the handicap division.
only time not to run top 2 was the KY Derby and Preakness if I remember correctly.
should make an excellent sire and its good that we will have some of the Sadlers Wells blood in this country.
