I hesitate to ask how you know so much about ball dropping.

I always enjoy a light-hearted subject at times.

My friend who owns the AP Indy son said that his cryptorchidism has effected his fertility. Makes sense when half of his sperm producing organ is out of commission.
I wonder if their going to lower SBN's testes surgically for breeding purposes or is it too late for that?

Just heard from the owner of Indy Talent, son of AP Indy, that at least one of his foals is a ridgling with both testicles undescended. She is going to check with the the Oklahoma State Veterinary College to see if the condition can be corrected. She says that the condition actually is common with both the AP Indy and Storm Cat line. Looks like there is a hereditary component there.
Will post if I get more info.
