Fred, I have to agree with you. I like the way the futurity works now. Hey, if you can't get a futurity nomination of $25 in over a three month period, I have no comment. I think that one thing that makes people fly all over the country is the quest for F/M V. I wouldn't miss that at all, if that was discontinued. As for Top Fut/Mat Producing sires and dams in the Redbook, that is an awesome predictor of who the next top producers are going to be in most cases.
