He was 29 years old and retired since 2007. He was a great stallion and an even more famous broodmare sire.

Good article. Correct me if I am wrong, but I seem to recall reading somewhere that Linamix was the first stallion to sire classic winners of the fifth generation of the Northern Dancer male line.
