I've talked to Matt at Starquine off and on, but as I said previously, it wasn't about getting a date with a sire in exhange for my donation, only a side deal where he was trying to help me out to get a reduced fee through his connections, basically as a consolation prize.
In the mean time my mare (Angel in America) has foaled a Tethra filly on Jan 30th and needs to go to the shed imminently. I'll be staying in Ontario to go Ontario sired again. The only reason I wanted to go south was that I felt that Lac Ouimet is (was) a bargain sire for breed to racers and a reduced fee would counter all the hassle of shipping etc. We were looking at NY sires but when you're in the <$7500 bracket shipping anywhere doesn't make much sense.
Now I just have to figure out who to send her to. And quick!
My AEI>CI criteria is pretty tough to find in this market. (I think Bold Executive is the only one @ $10K) I went to Ascot Knight already and may again....(But that's all another thread...)
Good Luck with yours.

after looking at the ontario sires I like your Bold Executive choice.
The other two papers I liked were for Compadre and Whiskey Wisdom and neither will have the numbers you are looking for.
Compadre doesnt appear to have had much success as a sire. Whisky Wisdom hasnt been at it long but a couple of the successful progeny have been with Turn-to.
