In the last 20 years which horse that has won the Derby, has done anything at stud, that was really important? This horse will suffer the same fate if not worse, because of his lackluster breeding. In the end, he will be as valuable as Funny Cide and Mine That Bird.

That's embarrassing.

I think thats more society based, if you are not winning your a loser (or performed like one), with few exceptions.

Real Quiet and Thunder Gulch got some good runners here and there.

Super Saver is one of the hottest freshman sires out there.

Street Sense has been a very good stallion as well. Two domestic Grade I winners (Sweet Reason/Aubby K), one international and 11 graded stake winners in three crops.

Agree. Good article in American Turf last month about Super Saver.
