Follow-up Thread on Double-bred Turn-To horse/more questions

This is a follow-up on the link below:

His pedigree is at:
http://www.pedigreequery.com/mountain+top

If someone can advise me how/where to post a picture or a .pdf of his catalog-style pedigree, I'll be happy to make that available, too. [Or I'll e-mail it to anyone who wants it].

Now that you've been very helpful on what mares you might breed to this mare, if you were me [and please -- keep those comments coming -- you have all been very helpful], what about if you were, well, you?

Here are some questions [that I'd put into a poll, if I knew how]:

1. WOULD you breed to this stallion, if he were in the region in which you breed?

2. IF SO, why -- is it his pedigree, race record, the fact that he has no Northern Dancer or Mr. Prospector, or something else entirely? If so, what?

3. If you would breed to him [in theory] at what price range? I've looked at the other PA-based stallions, so I've got an idea of an asking price [but don't trust my own research enough to believe I can predict what a mare-owner other than myself would consider reasonable].

4. Would you need a picture of him to help with the assessment?

As always, thanks for your advice & opinions.
