Underused Sires – Second Edition
In looking for a stallion for my sprinter mares there are
several stallions that get a lot of interest.
Run Missy Run, Deux Francais, Parisian Sheikh and Reining Money seem to
get their fair share of broodmares. So I
started searching for a stallion that shows promise and has a significant
amount of availability.
I my search, I found a sprinting stallion that could run on
everything but a rainy day. Active Duty
prefers Hard Dirt, Soft Dirt, Hard Turf and Soft Turf. He is poor in mud though.
Active Duty was bred and is owned by Snowbank Farms.
Active Duty is the only foal from the list stallion General
Nediym. Active Duty is out of the
broodmare Diabla. Diabla has 8 foals of
racing age, 3 have become millionaires.
Diabla is the 2nd oldest foal out of the great broodmare
Demoness. Demoness has 13 foals of
racing age, 7 that have earned a million or more. Regal Son with over 33 million in earnings is
her best earning offspring.
Active Duty won 13 races during his career. He won 1 Grade 1 and 7 Grade 2 races. He cashed checks of $100,000 or more 11 times
during his career. He won races from 5.5 to 7 furlongs. He posted PSR’s of 110 and higher 12 times in his racing career.
This season will be his 3rd season at stud. In his first 2 years he has only seen 2 mares
in his first breeding season and 5 in his second season.
He is currently being advertised on the forum for a $10,000
stud fee. At this writing he has plenty
of availability. Only 3 spots are
currently reserved.

A very fast horse who never seemed able to compete at GR1 races. If I had any sprinting broodmares, I would give him a shot.
He has comparable stats to Deux Francais, so would be a good alternative when DF is booked.
Also, I wish this blog could send notifications when there are new posts.
