SO? Your point? It's still a legitimate topic on this forum. It still doesn't need to be infused with sexual innuendos or any of the other inappropriate stuff that has been appearing WAY too often everywhere on this forum. I don't care how a topic starts; if it's horse related it belongs here. If it's sexual in nature it doesn't.

nothing much, just that this thread from jump street didn't have much hope. at least that's my opinion

I've now seen first hand a little bit of both the potential and the soundness issues with Storm Cat as a broodmare sire. Have two 2yo fillies (Lunar Beach, by Malibu Moon and Street Sharp, by Street Cry), the first started pretty well running third first out at belmont and then finishing 5th in a MSW at saratoga behind Zayat's Freakstein. I'd expect she'll break her maiden and I'd like to think she has a shot at getting some black type on her. The Street Cry has yet to run and likely won't until her three year old year...she ran a bullet out of nowhere and knocked herself out a little bit doing it, and as a result I think she has some chips in one of her hind legs that need to be cleaned out. We got them for 80, and 110k respectively though, so I'm hoping with commercial breedings they'll pay for themselves regardless of where their race careers end up.
