He has also become one of the best sires in North America. His stud fee is now up to $75,000. In 2008, he was 3rd leading sire in money won behind Smart Strike and Giant's Causeway. In 2009, he was 4th behind Giant's Causeway, Distorted Humor, and Smart Strike.

I like this up-and-comer, Spectacular Bid. I guess some are just calling him "The Bid." I think he could be a good one.

I've heard a lot about this horse that ran second to Tiznow once.

Something Causeway I think.

Can someone fill me in?

His name was 1985 Causeway. He has become the greatest sire in the history of the universe. His most successful son was Noble Causeway.

And I'm sure you've never heard of the movie Dreamer based a smidge on GCs dam, Mariah's Storm. Perhaps you'd enjoy it.

Well, now that you can't watch those old races on Youtube anymore, good luck with that!
