So..Testing the Waters
Top 5F AW work of all time and very speed 4f AW works. Checks off as versatile Cant decide if I want to debut over a mile or route..so letting you guys decide. I plan to have him go back and forth but I just cant make up my mind.

I voted for Mile. Getting a win at a Mile will only help his confidence and give him a boost for Route races. What a nice colt!!!

Hang on, Midnight Aria is a *route* sire?! I thought he'd be more like Midnight Lute and be miler/sprinter. Well, MA over Stephen definitely screams mile to me first, particularly from the female family of Allvar. It'll be interesting to see how he likes running over 1 1/8 m. Very nice colt Rocki! Good luck with him!

He does all the things, but leans sprint/mile as his favorites.

He is versatile and worked well in almost every division but I struggled to get a win out of him for the longest time even in his strongest division. May be worthwhile to wait a bit.

However, I voted mile bc that's cool
yeah
