Freud's been a regional standout for a bit now. He's actually got 25% stakes horses (admittedly most in the NY program). He's probably benefiting from rising to the top of the heap in NY, and getting the best mares available. He was more a sprinter than Giant's Causeway (or at least that's the way they campaigned him) and that might help getting dirt runners.

Has anyone checked the 2 year old sire list lately? Anywone see the little New york horse by the name of Freud? Not only does he have 6 winners from 12 2 year old starters as well as 2 stakes winners and 3 stakes wins but he has also climbed from 90th to 68th on the General sire list in the past3 months. Id like to see what would happen if he got His big brothers book of mares one year because he surely isnt getting the quality of mare that any of the horses that he is competeing with gets. any thoughts?

True, Alan. If they're this good this early going short, the sky's the limit. He's also got a SW in Italy who's about to stretch out to a mile as he preps for Group 1 company.

Southern equine already owned 1/2 of Mi Sueno before she went to auction. They were disolving a partnership so they really didn't pay 1.7 mil for her but still quiet a lot!

Daniel: thanks well spotted. Pollard's Vision is a real surprise. He wasn't really a typical Carson City, getting better with age and going a distance. Another Carson City, City Zip, is currently the leading sire of two-year-olds.

For a surprise, how about Pollard's Vision, with 10 winners, 5 stakes horses, 4 two-time winners and 3 full stakes winners, not to mention a top-5 frosh as the sales approach.

Smart Strike continues to get good winners after the retirement

of Curlin and getting a grade 1 two year old winner Lookin At Lucky

should keep him in the limelight

Good to see classic winner Afleet Alex get a grade 1 winner in his first crop and the way Dublin was running on at the end of the Hopeful there should be more to come from him.
