Thanks Checkmark, that Equine data is helpful but not quite on the button. In olden days I subscribed to Track Stats by TSN (Thoroughbred Sports Network). They sold a spiral bound book (Sire Stats) that listed sires whose progeny won first out (marked by A+). Brisnet Ultimate PPs list first time sire stats but I am trying to find something more definitive. In olden days you had an edge if you subscribed to TSN because they also listed Hot/Cold--Jockey Trainer stats, Sire Stats, Trainer Angle Stats. Now all that info is in the PPs which crushes the odds. I also subscribed to The Goldstein Report (jockey/trainer stats) which focused on CA racing. It was helpful but I believe the author, Jeff, passed.
