What are your feelings about Mohaymen as a sire? Tally Road 2 F Mohaymen - Abby Road (Ire) by Danehill

This is what Anne Peters wrote in Feb.
Mohaymen is a Grade 2 winner by Tapit out of the outstanding mare Justwhistledixie by Dixie Union. She was not only a Grade 2 winner but has been an outstanding producer, dam of four Graded stakes winners including Breeders' Cup Juvenile-G1 winner New Year's Day. Mohaymen was a $2,200,000 yearling, the joint sales topper at the 2014 Keeneland September Sale. Undefeated in three starts at two, his wins included the Nashua Stakes-G2 and Remsen Stakes-G2. At three, he won the Fountain of Youth Stakes-G2 and Holy Bull Stakes-G2 but was fourth in the Florida Derby, Kentucky Derby and Jim Dandy Stakes-G2. He tailed off inexplicably, off the board in the King's Bishop Stakes-G1, and could not win in four starts at four, his best being fourth in th Weschester Stakes-G3. Mohaymen is similar to his great sire physically, being a medium-sized horse at 16.0 1/2 hands, nicely put together with a deep shoulder and big hind end. He entered stud for a bargain $7,500 and got 121 mares his first year but dipped to 52 and then 59 in his second and third years. His yearlings averaged $45,305 last year, a nice multiple on his stud fee. Being a good juvenile himself and half-brother to a Breeders' Cup Juvenile-G1 winner, he could be a late season surprise among the freshman sires.
# 4 freshman sire right now with 8 winners from 25 starters
