Impeachment will be standing at Rockin' River Ranch in Iowa in 2009. I haven't seen him yet, but I think he matches up well pedigree-wise with my Beau Genius mare (crossing full brothers Vice Regent and Viceregal). Would anyone like to share their impressions of him? I am curious about his physical attributes and why he retired from racing so quickly.
Thanks,
Jason

Impeachment is very correct and physically looks great, he stands 16.2.
He ran 11 times in 8 months, the final 5 races were Grade 1 (including all 3 triple crown races). Following the Travers he came up with a tendon problem and that fall decided to syndicate him (for $750,000) instead of returning him to the track.
Here is a link to the Rockin River Ranch website (where he will be standing for 2009) they have video of his races and his progeny that you can watch.
