Cody’s Wish would be awesome! I’m a big Curlin fan and was a little sad he wasn’t a FF stud longer.

I would also love to see Flightline on FF. I don’t believe we have any Tapit lines on here yet.

Flightline

He won the Pacific Classic by 19 1/4 lengths and timeform assigned him a rating of 143, the highest number ever given to an American-trained horse.

Entered stud in 2023 at Lane’s End, KY

I’m happy to set up polls to pick potential new famous studs, may need reminders to continue them though. :wink: Lucky Past Me streamlined creating famous studs a while ago so that’s no longer such a painful process.
