Pine‐Tree‐I Pursuit (son of Imax out of Pine‐Tree 9882 Prof 7019‐ET, by Profit) makes an outstanding debut at #4 Pro$ and #6 LPI, which earns him the accolade of being the highest newly proven sire this round. In fact, only four other sires achieve Top 10 status for both national indexes. Two of these split the 1‐2 placing honors as Westcoast Alcove (Duke x MVP) maintains his hold at #1 LPI and #2 Pro$ (#2 Fat, #3 Protein) while Peak AltaHothand‐ET (Hotline x Montross) maintains his hold at #1 Pro$ and climbs a notch to now occupy #2 LPI spot (tied #7 Protein).

Moving up from ranking #16 in April, S‐S‐I La Syracse Alvarez‐ET (Syracuse x Josuper) climbs to #9 LPI (tied #17 Pro$) and completes the list of Top 10 LPI sires this round.
With an increase of $248, Blumenfeld Gdanc Rumble‐ET (GateDancer x Rubicon) climbs the Pro$ list from #9 to #5 position (#12 LPI). This advancement moves him ahead of Progenesis Montfort (AltaHotrod x Defender) at #6 Pro$ (#23 LPI, #3 Fat, #6 Protein).
