He is a nice horse for La given his obvious appeal as a racehorse. He is a G2 winner at two & G1 winner at a mile but was probley best at 7 to 7.5 furlongs. Wills Way was a super class racehorse & while he has been a bust at stud he is capable of getting a Lion Tamer & Willy O'The Valley was a real deal racehorse as well. I'm not sure what Lion Tamer really needs in a mare while pedigree is not really there ability is there so if I had his book I would just want more racy type mares at first thought. Thoughts?

I agree Lousiana is an excellent choice for him to stand with its strong breeders incentives and state bred stakes program. I think he has a good chance of putting up some decent stats. Maybe he can keep the Easy Goer sire line going!
