Rejuvenate the thoroughbred

[sham]

Suppose you were part of a committee to select three stallions for cloning with the Jockey Club's blessing for the purpose of breeding them to rejuvenate the breed. The selections must not predate 1900. Which horses would you choose. My choices are:

Nearco- Point stallion for both the Northern Dancer and Bold Ruler lines
Princequillo- Leading sire, 1957-59. Leading broodmare sire, 1966-70, 1972-73.
Fair Play- Leading sire in America, 1920, 1924, and 1927 (sire of Man O' War). Top broodmare sire, US, 1931, '34, '38.
