Does anyone think Lycius would be a good cross on White Wedding?

I sometimes believe my thoughts are the poster children for the "pooled ignorance family."
Random thoughts: Three crosses of Count Fleet has produced 27 stakes winners from 350 foals (about a 7.5% strike rate). The Nasrullah, Native Dancer and Nearco are all sex balanced with elite individuals. Goodish (3rd dam of White Wedding) and Mr. Prospector dam share 50% of the same blood:

The hypo mating does not show much speed:

The linebreeding is a who's who of old quality bloodlines:

If they match up physically, I'd sure give it a try.
I love the high concentration of Hyperion and Teddy. Great old article from the Pedigree Post:

A Broad Brush stallion might be considered. TrueNicks rated a Siphon mare on day 3 at Keeneland the highest:
