Generally, sons of Bettors Delight have not been good stallions.  Tall Dark Stranger might be the best and his stud fee went from $20k to $5k pretty quickly. This is odd as Bettors Delight is probably the best stallion of all time, you think there would be a few that would carry on his legacy, but it doesn't seem to be.  I think there are much better options in that price range, depending on where he wants to race.

"He was a pleasure to train and have in the barn.” - Casie Coleman, co-owner

One thing for sure, the horse will likely not have any negative reaction to the "yogurt".  ngc3

Are there any studs out there to a certainty that raced 100% clean?

I would feel better breeding to something with a little more size, he is a pretty small horse.

I agree…I’ve always found when it comes to breeding studs size matters.
