I could be wrong, but i just don't see breeders rushing to use Discreet Cat.

Although Echo Of Light wasn't top class on the racetrack and probably could be classed as an under achiever. Being a son of Dubai Millennium, he is sure to get his admirers at stud, especially as they cannot really justify a big fee for his first season. I could see him getting quite a nice book in his first year.

I'm not sure what this horse ever did. So his signature win in this country was the Cigar Mile over Badge of Silver and a past his prime Silver Train?? I guess that's HOF material there.
