Readers voted 64% to 35% that Elvstroem was more likely to succeed as a sire than half-brother Haradasun which surprised me as the poll was held straight after Haradasun's Royal Ascot victory. Don't ask me where the missing 1% has gone. As was proved on this blog a long time ago, my math isn't up to much.

In my vote for Elvstroem, the fact that he is by Danehill sealed it for me, although Haradasun has possibly a shade more brilliance.
I was disappointed that the latter was rushed off to stud so quickly. If it was good enough for Starcraft to remain in training and take on the G1s in Europe and have a shot at the Breeders' Cup, so too Haradasun. I think the owners displayed a a bit of chicken.
Stumbled across your blog.Very witty,acerbic and entertaining.
...Oh and Thank God (or whoever) that "Tilly" looks a better sort than her pop!
