Thank you, Fred -- that was very informative and answered a couple of questions I've had for a while now. However, there is one thing I would like to note -- the diploid NORTH WIND DANCER won the Stout Medal in 2011, but I suspect this information was written before that had happened.
Edit: YIKES -- And how could I forget that the diploid HEAVENLY ANGEL ICE recently won the Stout Medal for 2013? Getting old here...
