Bernstein mare

Does anyone have any thoughts on matches for a Bernstein mare from the family of White Star Line?

Hi there, on a modest stud fee, Stroll is hitting well with the Storm cat line and with Bernstein mares specifically.

Quality Road is showing a lot on the storm cat cross, as in both his graded stakes winners and today's breeder's cup juvenile winner Hootenanny.

Pioneerof the nile, also very strong on the Storm Cat line.

Mizzen Mast is hitting on the Storm Cat mare cross.

Lots of ways to go, and the white star line is such a nice foundation female family.

What are your goals, race or sell?

I saw Quality Road just got a Breeders Cup winner today, Hootenanny, out of a Hennessy mare. Sounds like the way to go if breeding to sell. But, I would probably want to keep the offspring.

Karakontie's Breeders Cup win in the Turf Mile makes the breeding on this filly look pretty good.
