How about you run a TrueNicks broodmare analysis report? For $195 you can select all the stallions that you like and they are rated against your mare and a report is returned to you with all the ratings, an up to date pedigree and a ranking of the stallions.

My Boundary mare's True Nicks rating with Lewis Michael is C+.However her rating with Rahy is an A.I am confused by this especialy since the best horses bred on this cross are obvious the same. Thanks Guys

Byron's Reply: Thanks for the question. It gives us a chance to explain some of the program. TrueNicks works on a series of logic flow questions which require parameters to be met before the actual calculation is made. In the case of Rahy/Boundary mare it is able to complete the calculation when it gathers the data on Rahy when bred to mares by Danzig and his sons. There are enough examples of the cross being tried for a calculation to be made. In the case of Lewis Michael he has no foals to make such a calculation on himself, so he is treated as a generic son of Rahy. In this case we are looking at Rahy and his sons when bred to mares by Danzig and his sons. The addition of Rahy's sons into the equation (the likes of Fantastic Light, Noverre, etc) is what is making the difference. In Europe and Australia these sons of Rahy have seen an awful lot of Danzig line mares with limited success. Their failure to at least be as good as their sire with Danzig line mares is what is influencing the rating for Lewis Michael as their results are included in his calculation.

I have always loved Point Given from the first time I saw him. He should have been a Triple Crown winner and in my book, he is. I would love to visit Three Chimneys just to see him.

Point Given is my personal favorite, though all the others at Three Chimneys are top class.

Let us not forget Dynaformer,s European 2 year old filly champion

Rainbow View.It might be said as a 2 year old champion she has disappointed at 3 but I thought she

ran creditably well in all her races as they were all at the grade 1 level and looked good in winning the Matron Stakes in Ireland last time.Hopefully she will become a good broodmare and I am looking forward to seeing who she will be bred to when her racing days are over.

Big Brown should make a GREAT sire, he was a horse who could run on any surface, any distance.
