Sire Prediction Points (SPP) on sires announced so far for 2026... it’s notable that Coolmore adds two new 9/9 sire prospects, DELACROIX in Europe and SIERRA LEONE in the U.S. With their CITY OF TROY also going to stud with a 9/9 rating in 2025 Coolmore has now retired the only three 9/9 sire prospects
since Too Darn Hot in 2020. Nine of the first 12, or 75%, who scored 9/9 became top 10% sires, namely A.P. INDY , BERNARDINI , EMPIRE MAKER , GALILEO , GIANT’S CAUSEWAY , GUN RUNNER , MONTJEU , SEA THE STARS and TOO DARN HOT . BILL OPPENHEIM, SSR
