He's got the papers, but does appear to lack a bit in comp record... and that in bloodline. Though he does go back to FF Native Dancer that does have a good record.
I assume you're looking for stud and not to sell. But I'll give you both with the understanding that my pricing is sometimes a bit off and differs from others from time to time.
Stud... 250k? 350K? He might well and easily be hiding something, so I think that's a minimum-maximum to start. If he pops something that can run, then upgrade his fee another 100k. However, his bloodline has a bit of something and for that, it's worth it.
Sale... This is a lot harder. A person would be purchasing for pedigree alone or also use as a grinder. Considering these two uses only... I think minimum sale price around 400k. He's just an unknown in the breeding shed and his line is also unknown (relatively), except for that Dancer stud. But it's not his sire, it's his grandsire, so that also dilutes the blood a little. So I think I'm decently fair considering all he has.
However, of course, that doesn't mean somebody will drop a million or a billion on him.
