He's in his bounce year and he cooled badly after getting hot prices for his first weanlings. I'm guessing he's going to be extremely risky commercially and given his premature breakdown, I think he's equally risky as a breed to race sire. For me, he's a definite wait and see horse.

Especially risky seeing that his dam and half sister by Old Trieste both suffered big injuries. Soundness issues are in the line.
