Yes, you'd have to factor in the fact that he's going to be 9 when he starts covering and so has a more limited shelf life as a stallio.

But what a prospect - maybe he'll start a small trend for breeding staying Flat horses again. It's his battling qualities that you'd want passed on. In a very much smaller way, those are the qualties Songy passed on to both her colts as that's how she raced and it was why I wanted to breed from her, so if YEATS does the same with his get, we could see some wonderful racehorses appear in a few years time, Flat and NH.

Wouldn't you like to be able to send a quality mare wth a miling pedigree to him!
