great turf performances this weekend. Sidney was crazy fast (hope he wasn't ko'd by that one), and Wasted tears was pure heart in her victory. Didn't see Interactif back on the turf but have to think if Pletcher didn't "mess" with him he would of racked up a few more turf stake wins this year.

Lance,

Nice comment-- that's really interesting. It would be interesting to look into the actual number of A.P. Indy's purchased vs. bred and see the percentages...

Interesting that none of the many expensive auction Indy's purchased by the Maktoum family have ever done better than Gr III winners, yet they have bred no fewer than 7 Gr I winners: Tempera, Jilbab, Bernardini, Telling, Little Belle, Music Note, and Flashing.

I really hope some Kentucky Farm steps up and lands "Telling" for their stallion roster. He looks like a genuine stamina influence we need alot more of in today's Thoroughbred breeding. You got to love that A.P. Indy blood !!!
