"I do think Sleeping Indian's yearlings look nice. I've seen a good few and they have good minds and look athletic." Stephen Hillen, bloodstock agent
"I've been impressed by Sleeping Indian's progeny. He was a very good racehorse who was unlucky not to win at the Breeders' Cup." Peter Doyle, bloodstock agent
"I bought two foals by Sleeping Indian and both are exceptional, probably the nicest stock by a first season stallion. They should make very impressive yearlings." Paddy Twomey, Hawthorn Villa Stud.
