I think he broke out when he hit the dirt-Not to be stubborn, but this boy was good; I hate to give the credit to lasix instead of natural ability. About his offspring.........you're not hearing good things about his babies? What kind of things are you hearing? I am looking forward to his yearlings - with his pedigree and ability, Mineshaft should be a great sire.
I just emailed Lane's End and they said his yearlings look great - I know you can expect any farm to say that, but your post has shocked me. If you can fill me in, I'd appreciate it! Also, on the breeding note, what have you heard about Sky Mesa's foals (if anything)? I'm a huge AP Indy and Pulpit fan (any horse from that line, actually, but especially those two) and hope that they can carry on the Bold Ruler line. It's important for Indy to do it because he's Slew's best son. Thanks so much!
