So horrible that he is now a Chef-de-race. Check the Roman site.

Yeah ... and so is Appalachee ...

Give it up, honey.

List 5 improtant horses that Chief's Crown sired...I doubt you could even list that many....I'm telling you that danzig blood on the paternal side really isn't that great relative to how good of racehorses they were and the mares they got, etc.....I love Danzig as much as the next person, but he just has been very average as a sire of sires.....I like him on the broodmare side, though

Anyone know who else is headed to the Super Derby? (If Lawyer Ron goes, of course...). It would be good to see a few of the old gang clash again -- LR, Bro Derek, SNS. There are still quite a few good 3yo's out there if they can stay healthy.

Ward claims they are pointing Strong Contender there and i think Pletcher is consderuing High Cotton, too.....it will be a strong race this year.....

I told you all that Lawyer Ron wasn't overrated. Is he in Bernardini's league right now?...no way...I don't think any horse is. But, he is a very nice graded stakes horse that has a very, very promising future. His comeback race was spectacular. He'll only improve off of that start. I am really looking forward to BD's and Sharp Humors returns too. Has anyone heard anything about SNS?

REad on TTimes that SNS returned to Trombettas barn Friday and the plan is to have him racing in late October or early November. No real plans or races mentioned just he is back in his barn and I assume will be resuming training.

I was there in person for two of Danzig's three races ... the second time specifically to see him run.

Despite his own unsoundness ... he sired some very good race horses ... but you're right ... his line seems to not be breeding on ... although such things can be reversed quite suddenly. Antonius Pius and Survivalist may become the greatest stallions in the world.

The final chapter won't be written for another twenty years.

Are you guys serious? Danzig's male line is the Absolute top of the heap in Australasia right now. Danehill's sons are running the board over there. And some Danehills are doing fine in Europe, like Danehill Dancer (who had a G1 winner this morning in Ireland) and Tiger Hill in Germany, not to mention Desert King who sired Makybe Diva (3 Melbourne Cups). Sinndar has had group winners with his oldest only 4, Polish Precedent has sired Pilsudski (BC Turf among other G1 wins) and Rakti (Champion S, etc) and Polish Summer (Sheema Classic). . Lure was subfertile but he left G1 winner Orpen, who is sired a classic winner in his first crop. Bellamy Road will represent him over here, although his dad Concerto is still with us as well. This is not a struggling male line.

[Danzig]

danehill is the sire of rock of gibraltar, as well as cacique, banks hill, dansili, elvstroem, intercontinental, landseer, oratorio....countless others who have earned 6 figures, many millionaires.
as a shuttle stallion danehill has influenced racing from europe to hong kong, from australia to here in the u.s.
langfuhr sired wando and mobil....the influence of northern dancer thru sadlers wells and danehill thru danzig is worldwide, and will remain so thru the sons and daughters of those stallions.

danzig is the top stakes sire in north america by far. sadlers wells, also by northern dancer, is the top in europe. danehill, by danzig completed the triumvirate in australasia.

i'm not sure how much more danzig can do then what he's done....

Yes, we know....Danehill is the lone bright spot.....and that is Australia dude, which is like breeding New Jersey breds....

Wow, you are showing your vast knowledge here Joel.

Let's hear your dissertation on Australian racing and breeding.

Yeah, alot of champions come from that part of the world, mood...

I'm still waiting for him to produce the post where he claims that I called Sheikh Mo a terrorist. Hes a liar, plain and simple. I deleted or edited nothing, and the administrators here certainly will be able to determine this. He got emotional, misinterpreted something that i said, then made up outright lies. I really expected more out of him than that. I also expected him to go back and take a look and see that he was wrong. Apparently it would dishonor him too much to do so.
Word of advice while writing for the new gig, don't put words in people's mouths and lie about what they said. Most guys won't give you a second interview if you do so.

danehill isn't limited to australia anyway. he shuttled every year til his last couple at stud.
look at the international sires list for 2005 for example. he's third, behind sunday silence and brians time...most stakes winners in europe that year.
fourth in '04 and second in '03.

the one bright spot? langfuhr finished the year last year as #12 in the sire list here..ahead of the likes of unbridleds song, kingmambo and his 300k stud fee..ahead of pulpit, awesome again, fupeg and hennessy to name a few.

was #15 in '04....belong to me #23...ahead of gone west and pulpit....

Yeah ... but how are they doing in Mongolia and Belarus?

Nobody cares about Australasia, honey ... not even the Australasians.

Stick to cutting and pasting ... and stop insulting everyone else's intelligence with your fatuousness.

Yeah, maybe, but unlikely...Antonius Pius is a freakin lunatic and Survalist is a Grade 3 type but he could pan out in a smaller market like New York in the breeding shed.....Danehill is carving out a phenomial legacy but that is about it if you ask me...Langfuhr and Belong to Me are solid for $15K - $20K stud fee but thats it....War Chnt is a bust if you ask me...he got way too many good mares to not have any super racehorses IMO....

Hey, I think Danzig'z grandson Rock of Gibraltar has a solid chance to do something though....we'll see...
