Title: Catch The Fire
Post by: Pacingqueen on November 23, 2020, 02:48:40 PM: I see he is standing stud next year at an advertised stud fee of $3,500 in Ohio. Very fair price bringing more of the Beach/Captain line to Ohio and also if the horse ever had a real trainer or driver he would probably be standing in Pennsylvania for $7,500 or $10,000.

of course the real test for ohio is to improve the broodmare band which understandably takes time and money

Pretty amazing to be sub 150 on every size track. As well won the Adios on a sloppy track against the same 3 year olds excluding Tall Dark Stranger. I think he has a shot. I am planning on breeding 5 mares to him myself. Including one that made 250k. Not a lot of sires to choose from in ohio and I do agree with the comment about the mares in ohio.

PA is overloaded. He seems like a decent deal in a state with a ton of money up for grabs and a decent middle tier for 2 and 3 yo.
