Makes a lot of sense.

He didn't have a very good look as a stallion prospect here.

But there's no interest or market in American horses Internationally according to the anti-Lasix crowd..

On a similar topic, Big Brown had his first starter go and was a winner. And it came in Russia.

I don't see the connection between I'll Have Another being worth more in Japan than here because of a different value system we have with stallion prospects and a $15,000 Keeneland yearling winning a race in Russia ... with any of the lasix arguments.

Like most arguments in favor of Lasix, it's ludicrous. Silly.

Sounds like it could be something he's capable of saying.

Making a generic point against the drumbeats that claim American bloodstock is a scourge in the International marketplace.

Exactly my first thought when I saw "Russia".

Don't sell Olga short, she has 10 wins in 2012 including the 7th at Suffolk yesterday. $42 winner.

3/5 Olga is a spy working directly for Putin...

No better place to hide in plain sight than Suffolk

Default That was quick

Is Havre de Grace sold overseas too?

Hope we don't lose another Sunday Silence type stallion opportunity.

What a bitch. I was hoping to see this horse some day on the farm. I'm getting bad flashbacks to the 90"s and Sunday Silence. I hope he has as successful a stud career as SS.

Pretty much impossible.

Sunday Silence was a great stallion and he had a far better pedigree than IHA.

Sunday Silence had a big turf pedigree that IHA doesn't have. He was by Halo and his dam was a Graded Stakes winner on turf.

SS was also a much better race horse.
