Mr. Prospector that eiter ran on turf or is siring turf...Does anybody know offhand of any standing in the sim ..

I'd say Chester House looks like a potentially good turf sire for the SIM, with a stellar female family.

Susie Rydell · Post by **Susie Rydell** » 18 years ago

Chester House is deceased. There are three sons of Mr. Prospector currently standing - Aldebaran, E Dubai, and Scatter the Gold. Of the three, your best bet is Aldebaran. While be was best known as a dirt sprinter/miler, he was a stakes winner on turf. In addition, he comes from a lovely (and turfy) family that includes Good Journey, Denon, Spinning World, etc.

Other Mr. Prospector-line ideas are the active sons of Gone West (Elusive Quality and Johar), Kingmambo (Dubai Destination, King's Best), or Machiavellian (Best of the Bests).

The turfiest horses are those that are a few generations removed that Susie listed. Mr. Prospector is traditionally a dirt influence, and there are only a few cases where that changed. But a rant on why Aldebaran can sire turf will come later, I've gotta go to class soon though.
