Who's next?
I hated it when Forty Niners Son went to Japan, and now Peace Rules goes to Korea. Japan got End Sweep and Coronado's Quest, too. It's probably a good thing that some of Forty Niner's other sons have been just useful stallions without making any real noise, because they would be gone too! I'm kind of shocked that they didn't take Roar!
I know I've posted on this before, and it probably gets old, but what is it with those guys over there across the Pacific pond? Forty Niner has been very successful for them, but he's no Sunday Silence! Why do they seem to want to snatch up his bloodlines?
Nobody here in the States ever really expected Distorted Humor to be what he's become, and I still say thank gawd for Funny Cide, in Distorted Humor's first crop, winning the Derby, because who knows, we may have lost Distorted Humor too!
I just hate seeing the good ones from Forty Niner keep getting plucked like this. He himself should never have been sold to them, and I really think it's a loss for American breeding.
