Who would you breed to?

Looking back at farms in Texas that bred to race some 30 years ago. The farms that had the most success's were farms that had stallions that raced in New York or back east. The horses were multiple winners 5 or more wins and from good female family's. I know of one stallion that was actually siring better than the NAME stallion and they virtually quit breeding him and used mainly as a teaser. They also had mares that were multiplte winners also, with a few exceptions. I know at Red Barn Farm that they raced along the Midwest and back east. A typical year for them was leave the farm and go to Keeneland then Churchill Downs after Churchill they knew what kind of stock they had then go to Detroit or Rockingham or to Waterford Park. Then back home in late October to rest the string, break and get ready the lay ups and 2 yr. olds. Also most of the old stallions I knew had lifetime starts of 59,56,36,60,30,64,72. They sired tough racehorse who raced thru starts of 152-29 wins, 78/21 wins,98/18,84/29,198/25,97/11,194/19,96/10,54/9. These horses were hickory tough, trained tough and ran tough. Nowadays you can be a world champion in 5 starts. Used to be a horse was a good 2 year old , better at 3 and better yet at 4 and maintained his form at 5 if he raced on. Bull Hancock said never breed to a stallion with less than 25 starts. In this day and age who would you breed to????
