Who will be the sire of sires for 05?

Postby TomFool » Tue Jan 18, 2005 5:05 pm

It seems like sons of Mr P are taking turns. In 03 it was all Forty Niner as he got super hot but has cooled off as fast. 04 belonged to Gone West & we will see if he can keep it up but my money is on someone else jumping up and having a huge year as a sire of sires but who will it be?

It will be a few years away but I'm very high on Johar. I really think he will be worth using I just hope he stayes within my price range.

He might get the spillover of mares that weren't good enough for Gone West. But those mares are better than the average mares that other stallions are getting.

I like Nureyev, as he has 3 more crops to surface. Out of his last 3 crops, Nureyev will have a good chance to add to his surname of sire of sires.

hi guys

Is it possible that with the sire success of A.P. Indy's son Malibu Moon (sire of probable 2 year-old champ Declan's Moon)...that we may hear plenty about A.P.Indy as a budding sire-of-sires...

...especially if Declan's Moon continues successfully on the Derby (and classics) trail.

Valid Appeal is starting to have quite a bit of success as a sire of sires.
