Who do you like for this mare?

Mare is Ben's Sister. She is in OK and I won't travel very far to breed her. I'm picking up a mare in NE in another week or so that I sent to Blumin Affair and they have Dazzling Falls there who I also like. Which of these two are the better pick for her pedigree-wise?

If you only have those two to choose from, probably Blumin Affair who at least is from the Hail To Reason/Turn-To line... your mare's dam seems to nick well with that like (see the Cox's Ridge and Best Turn SW siblings)
So Run for the Roses, as fast as you can.....
