Holy smokes, he's waaaa over at the knees. This tells me why his daughter Balletic ended up with knee surgery and retired as a runner. That's one thing I notice about his get, they tend to end up not being sound and retired. What's with the quarter cracks in his off front hoof? You'd think they could afford the best farriers and, if needed, supplements so that wouldn't happen.
As a shareholder of Balletic I was very disappointed in her knee issues because she could run but the two surgeries didn't help. So, she's bred to Mage so we'll see what that foal does and hope the knee issues don't follow her foal.
Harlan's Holiday was lost too soon. Into Mischief is the best Storm Cat line currently standing at stud. He's overhyped imo, but, he's gotten lucky with the books he's had.
At 4:34 his foreleg issues are extremely concerning. His best sons seem to be better, so breeders of his offspring should focus very tightly on correctness and grit.
He is a great stallion in terms of the performance of his children, but bad in that there are too many of them. I don't know any good mare that wouldn't be covered by them. And that's bad.. I am silent about the fact that he has serious problems with his front legs. It is not surprising that they try not to photograph him in full height or choose an angle where no obvious problems with the front legs are visible.
Sorry, but... This is a TERRIBLE stallion, from breeding perspective. His line will get inbred at some point. There is already little to know diversity in the horse racing lines. His hooves and knees are terrible. Not going too see him as a stud for out mares here at any point...
@@kayeroskaft9619 he is getting bred to 200+ mares a year which is considered abusive by many vets. It puts a huge pressure on the heart and makes it a risk to even exist for a horse after. He is either going to go down because of the heart issues, or because of his god awful hooves. It's not about the stallion himself, it's about his breeding career that is sett up by his owners that sets up for failure a lot of future horses
Yeah, I just watched this video and saw the profile pic where he is soo over at the knee!? Also, what is with his hooves!? why are they so flat and dinner plates? I am not a hoof expert by any means but I know something very odd looking when I see it...read the comment below about the breeding schedule...yeah, when is this industry going to have some integrity! Pushing horses to their limits should not be glamourized and there should be some laws in place because humans with dollar signs in front of their eyes cannot be counted on to have the integrity to do the right thing. These poor Thoroughbred horses who have to hand breed each one!
@@kayeroskaft9619 I don't think they are bashing the horse but more so the industry/farm....look at the profile pic at 4:34 and look at his front legs...why is he so over at the knee!? Also, there is something very weird going on with his front hooves! I don't know how he walks right...and the breeding schedule he is under....he looks deformed...my guess it is something that all that breeding has done to him. This freaking country and trying to milk every last bit of money out of something when you could make just some money and be happy enough with that and give that poor animal a break!
@@myronschabe we have some of them in our care in our stable. I don't think racing breeding lines can see a good future with current breeding practices. It's the same with arabians. Other sport lines (bred for dressage, show jumping, etc.) have a lot more of a genetical diversity and health. But, unfortunately, racing lines are bred based on results on the track, not health and exterior. His hooves are a direct result of the bad care. Justify and American Pharoah, who are triple Crown winners non the less, are also suffering from these hooves. Justify even suffers from laminatus, which is a killer of his ancestor, Secretariat
"Into Mischief" is a gold mine like sire¡¡¡There are some sons from him running in Chile right now¡¡Best of luck¡¡¡¡
Amazing sire¡¡¡

Even this video featured the children of Into Mischief, not himself.

The king of future handicaps and inbreeding

I think you can state your misgivings about Into
mischief as a stallion without labeling him as terrible-in caps no less.
