Any thoughts on this boy as a stallion? I haven't had the chance to see him in the flesh, but from the photographs I've seen he looks a nice type. I'd say he's done enough on the track to do himself justice in the stallion book. He was a fairly precocious two year old, and seems to have trained on. He probably isn't quite up to Juddmonte level so I guess he'll come on the market?
Based upon his performances and demeanour this season I think he might well visit the Vet for an operation that would prevent a future career at stud.[;)]

I wouldn't Geld him at this juncture, I'd say there might be something underlying inhibiting his performance, Give him the rest of the season off, They can come back, like Rio de la plata did to a degree today. If he keeps performing like he is at the moment, he'll nearly be back in handicaps.
