After this Saturday at Tampa Bay Downs, there might be a newcomer on this list. Watch out for AP Cardinal.

I believe Mr Jones is correct. It is his business and he can certainly decide how to price his stallions. In these difficult times some breeder's may not like that, but it seems Airdrie is willing to accept whatever consequences this brings about. He has certainly done a remarkable job helping to 'm...

I think she is a high quality horseperson.

But, she is a female, and we know she really can't be any good because Rick Dutrow says so. He knows everything!

For what it's worth, I made mention in another thread that we went and saw Divine Park at Airdrie. We loved him; great presence about him and very nicely balanced with good size throughout. My opinion is the son of Chester House will do well at stud. We also saw Lewis Michael and thought he was a ni...

For what it's worth, I feel good about Divine Park and Street Boss as new stallions.

From first crop to race in 2009, I like Eddington and Limehouse as two who might be flying under the radar a bit.

Hi madelyn,

I know Wanderin Boy is being prepped to run in the Cigar Mile on Nov. 11. Don't know stud plans.

Hello nymary, I visited Airdrie about a week ago with our bloodstock advisor. We both loved Divine Park. He has terrific balance and plenty bone. He handled himself with such class. An excellent example of how a horse should look. We also liked Harlan's Holiday, although the $30k fee might keep us a...

Like walaa, I find I simply read threads to find others' thoughts on certain topics; posting rarely on topics I feel I can contribute something. The mudslinging can get annoying and being that I am not a rabid poster, my thoughts, when posted, seem to go unnoticed. My involvement in this great game ...

While I don't disagree that Macho Uno's raise was inappropriate in this economy, I can't compare Midnite Lute favorably towards him.

Macho Uno has a successful stallion pedigree and has proven to get quality runners. Midnite Lute hasn't even proven he can impregnate mares yet.

I think it would be great for racing to have this champion running next year. However, the spin being put out by Curlin's majority owner that he would be "doing it for the fans and for racing" might be publicity. I am pretty sure that with the legal issues surrounding Curlin's ownership, making a st...

Maybe, but Kiaran McLaughlin's horse won the Met Mile beating Commentator by 2 lengths. His race prior he ran the 4th fastest dirt mile in No. American history dusting Grasshopper in the Gr. 3 Westchester.

If he can stretch his talent an extra furlong he could prove tough.
