Tapiture to Darby Dan in 2016

Sounds like they will try for the BC Dirt Mile again. Multiple graded winner at 2 and 3, hasn't really progressed at 4.
I saw a conformation photo of him, and he is one good looking horse. His female side is interesting and doesn't have any Mr. Prospector/Northern Dancer in it.
Unless he is a knock-out at stud, I see this horse ending up regional - like Louisiana.
