His success in the shed only goes to show just how gifted a runner he was.

He went off favored in the Derby... says a lot right there. Horse was really good. Too bad his career was so short. Interestingly, he's really the only sire success story of that class that I can think of...

Not at all!!

Old Trieste was doing very well before dying at a young age.

Real Quiet, while not a resounding success, has sired a few good horses while getting a crappy book of mares.

Grand Slam has done pretty decently.

All four of those have sired BC winners, btw.

I think that crop has been much better at stud than the previous year. The only sire from that crop that's done anything is Awesome Again.
