I'd like to see Zenyatta with Bernardini or Einstein, or even the grand old man, AP Indy. As to Kris S. as a stud...wow...just look at Rock Hard Ten, one of my favorites....but I believe, like Blame, there would be toooo much inbreeding there. RHT's babies started the year great but seemed to wane during the last half. Will they pick up as 4 year olds as the old man did? Didn't Bold Chieftain just retire this year...what does it look like for him? I'd just love to see a little Slew in Zen's future.

Why not go with Blame - Acoma? Look at that nice inbreeding to Danzig, Alydar, Mr. Prospector...I love Empire Maker. I wish I owned Acoma because I would breed her to Blame in a minute. :)

I find the cross of Blame with Zenyatta VERY intriguing. What do you all think? Duplicates Kris S, Forli and Mr Prospector.

Definitely, Karen. Uncle Mo is out of a mare by Arch.

The Roberto line did very well at Breeders Cup. Kris S. is in the pedigree of Zenyatta and Blame, were there more? And has the Kris S. sire line shown more affinity for dirt than Dynaformer, who is one of the leading turf sires and is the leading steeplechase sire?
