You'll love this, I know I did.
"It always seems to come back to the mare," Farish said. "You have to think that we wouldn't have an A.P. Indy ... if it weren't for Weekend Surprise and Lassie Dear. That whole family is what produced that great stallion. You have to say it goes back to the mare."
Finally, there was a quiet spot to talk mares: in the Lane's End cemetery.
Havre de Grace's sire, Saint Liam, rests on the right with other famous Lane's End stallions. On the left is Lassie Dear, her daughters on either side, with Prospectors Delite and her mother and grandmother.
"There are all the girls," Farish said, gesturing toward a crescent of gray headstones, the cornerstones of Lane's End Farm. "It's amazing what they produced. ... They all had probably five stakes winners apiece, which was really an important part of the beginning of the farm."http://www.kentucky.com/2012/11/25/2420515/fields-of-dreams-at-vaunted-lanes.html#storylink=misearch

I want sound horses to stand at stud, but sometimes unsound stallions can be marvelous stallions. For example, Tapit was not especially sound, and Malibu Moon only raced twice. Danzig raced three times. What a loss for the breed if he hadn't become a stallion. So sometimes you have to let the market decide.
On that note, Tale of the Cat has produced some lovely sound horses, so maybe Overdriven, who wasn't sound, will impart the magic of his sire in mares. You just never know.
