Just noticed that you've only got Tiers A-E, but that you're using some horses in higher tiers than their sire's stud fee would qualify for. Technically the way I wrote the rules doesn't really allow you to use a $7,500 stud fee sire in Tier D (for example). I actually wouldn't mind changing the rules to allow it, but I'm reluctant to make changes now that other owners have picked teams. Any objection to making the changes so that your horses are all within the range for their tier? (and we'll make the rules change for next year) If you want to discuss, feel free to email me.
In light of the new Lindsay Rules- awesome name, btw, hehe- if at all possible, I'd like to take out Distinctively and put in
Exploring Dora Tumblebrutus x Parish Business
Do the Lindsay Rules apply to stallions like Came Home who stand overseas, or would I use his 2007 stud fee? If not, leave the stable as is, but if so, take out Broadway Ticket in favor of Frolic On Home, and replace his Tier C spot with
unnamed Silver Deputy x Multiply (30k)
And oh, I just realized I was combining Tiers D and E! Properly separated, the tiers look like this:
Tier D Arabian Peace He's Shameful
Happy Bull Yonaguska x Readout (10k)
unnamed Congaree x Trepidation (15k)
Dear Marylou Birdstone x Call Your Bid (10k)
Tier E Billregard Carolyns Rose Domonique Locke the Doc Spirit of Dubai
Tier F Gulch Point Mr. Camilo
Be Mine Valentine Drewman x Minister's Secret (2.5k)
Blue Suede Hooves Mud Route x Gypsy Soul (2.5k)
Key Frolic Fabulous Frolic x Proud Frolic (1.2k)

Also, are these your final picks, based on the rules I posted?

Crap. Just realized someone else picked Blue Suede Hooves. Then I'll use
Joe the Indian
Touch Tone x Ragtime Tune (1k)
From the rules: "If USD stud fees are not listed for a horse, currency conversion rates should be based on 1/1/08 exchange rate."
If you can find Came Home's current stud fee overseas, I'll figure out what it converted to on 1/1/08.
Looks like it's private. I'll just do what I mentioned above and stick him in Tier A, taking out Broadway Ticket.
There. Provided that all of the horses are alive and I haven't overlooked anyone else's picks, that would be the final draft of my stable.
The only Be My Valentine that I could find in Equibase Virtual Stable is a French filly born in 2007.
Huh. Well, in that case-
