Pensioned / Deceased Sires 2009

[Knightmare]

I am going to maintain a list here of sires that are pensioned (retired) or that pass away this year. This means this is the last year in the sim the sire is available for two year old breeding.

As you come across these type sires let me know I will add them to the list. I like to do this just in case I have never used a sire and want to I now have a deadline to use the sire.

It has been a tough year for French sires.
