are they worth the price

.....would not know....SFR was an exceptional race horse....and a pick of mine at sale....Dianne Stenger had the older sibling(a filly) by Spectrum that was the dam's 1st foal...that was showing to be useful when he was on sale....also he was from 2nd the last crop of the aging National Assembly....did not think he'd be a world beater though.....a horse to have a bit of fun with.... :S
....labeled his next sibling My Cousin Eric.... to follow in his footsteps was sold to HK for a BAR....and over there.... he is no star..... :blush:

.....what I can say about SFR as a stallion is that he should do well with mares with Mr P + ND and or Mr P + BR....has more of a sprint miler genome....these big prices for a freshman sire progeny are a big gamble ....but if you have a sheikhs check book then the spend has no end... :whistle:

Looks so good you got to have a second look
Bob please delete (duplicated)

.....nice horse should do well....the dam here is a half sister to Caravaggio...in fact this whole female line has pretty much only thrown grey's ....Magnier has more recently paid a US$BAR for another half sibling of Caravaggio by American Pharaoh...
