A little too much inbreeding to Northern Dancer so close in the pedigree and a 4x3 to Mr. Prospector with Danehill and Nijinsky and a double of Sir Ivor. This colt is going to be severely limited in his mates. Not sure why they chose to breed this colt this way. One positive is the closest N.D. will be in his offspring's 4th generation thru him....closer if his mares are granddaughters of N.D. If I had a 100% total outcross to Niagara, he would be interesting to breed to.

Watcher,

True, the farm has paid to make Niagara's hypothetical mating reports available to breeders at no charge. We occasionally announce new stallions that have joined TrueNicks, but I wouldn't necessary take it as an endorsement just because they're mentioned here. But still, you have to admit, Niagara does have a pretty solid pedigree.

Who can believe any stallion endorsement by TrueNicks when they have been paid by his owner to heavy-load the B.S.?
