Off to stud after the BC this weekend.
Interesting pedigree-obviously DANSILI was a miler, but presumably the SADLER'S WELLS mare who was his dam imparted the stamina to allow him to win those 12f G1 races.
As a thought-would a mixed pedigree like this be more attractive to a breeder as the Grandsire of any offspring would be a speed influence? To a layman like myself, this would be a more attractive cover than a horse like Nathaniel (much discussed is he), who has a stamina laden pedigree on both sides of his page?

His dam line has good sires: Sadler's Wells; Shirley Heights; Ile De Bourbon; Habitat; Vaguely Noble.
Those good sires on the dam line were by good sires: Northern Dancer; Mill Reef; Nijinsky; Sir Gaylord; (Vienna, sire of Vaguely Noble the exception).
Flintshire has the racing record, and the ancestors.
He must have a decent chance of producing good ones.

Compared to some of the first seasoners we are seeing over this side of the water, and based on his pedigree/record that would seem pretty good value-although he's obviously likely to be an influence for stamina over speed.
