Question for Paint Route Breeders
So I have the stud prospect, Into the Twilight (Gilmer x Blueblooded Indian [Indian Scout]), would there be any interest in him at stud this season? While he was no City Boy, he's been a good horse, got him from the Kya dispersal a few years back, MSW, earned $378,200, still going strong at 7.

It depends on how he hypos, which is always the hard question because you don't know until he retires. Female line looks OK.

What Alleyne said. Gotta be prepared to support him yourself if he's an average hypoing type... could still be a handy sire if given a chance but no one else is too likely to take a gamble on him.
Or maybe he'll hypo like a superstar. No way to know, haha.

Re: Question for Paint Route Breeders
When somebody says 'Paint Route' an alarm goes off and I'm summoned from the depths
Hypos are a big deal, be prepared to do some hypos yourself, including outside mares, if you want him to get the most attention. Lines are pretty soild, his half-sister has a nice runner this year in Jacopone. If you poke around his lines more you'll find more stakes horses along the way. That consistency is really nice to see. I'd toss him some mares this year unless his hypos are flat out awful. Gilmer has several sons standing right now but none of them have done very well. If you have a son of Gilmer that produces well that's some good $$$ right there.

Like everyone else said, Nicks are what everyone goes by. What they do on the track really seems to have very little to do with how they nick in the shed. This year I know if I were to use him it would be with very few mares because I'm going to have to try and throw whatever I have at City Boy - because there is no telling how he will nick at all. I've had other nice Paint routers retire who nick only average so I know there are no guarantees as in real life.
