How come Enicks gives Danzig cross with Buckfinder mares a D..when there have been numerous SW from that cross Big Miss... Yatsko...Master Dunker...Polones Voader Bold Kelly etc Truenicks gives it an A++ Is it because Truenicks looks at the dam side??

Then..what about Dumaani.Modigliani.. US Ranger etc for my Buckfinder mare??

Truenicks and Enicks work in very different ways. I personally think Truenicks is a better product. I suggest you read their own descriptions of how they calculate a rating.

As far as breeding to US Ranger, who is your mare?

Both US Ranger and Military would work. Somebody else interesting is Temple City, bred on the reverse cross of US Ranger.

Military has the advantage of being proven and of linebreeding to Gay Hostess. US Ranger was faster, getting his big wins in European turf company, and younger since fertility is always a concern with the Danzig line (and you have an older mare).

You might look at Belong to Me if he's in your budget.
