Thoughst on these fillies pedigrees

I'm looking at purchasing one of these two fillies to race and possibly breed with my stallion Ingot down the road. I'd like some opinions on their pedigrees. Both fillies are by Porto Foricos but one is out of Conservative Lady and the other out of Lady Josephone. Thank You!

Thank you Maven and Brendan for your replies. I really appreciate it because I know that pedigree advice is a livliehood for some folks on this forum and that the information you gave me is worth good money.

Looking for pedigree analyst

We decided to bite the bullet and go to a pedigree analyst who will tell us who best to mate our stallion with. I am looking for recommendations of pedigree analysts if you could PM me. Thank You.

I wouldn't go with the "Backyard Racehorse" methods becuase I think she needs more consistency and speed work. Not every horse can gallop only 3 days a week and be race fit..... !!! I am a big fan of the "Backyard Racehorse" book but I agree with you about the speed element. My question is, if you ...

There are tons of sites, Equine.com, Equinehits.com, Dreamhorse.com, Equinenow.com are just a few with this capabil...

We do some of that, and we mostly advertise on our own web site and in local Thoroughbred publications. What general area are you looking in? Maybe someone here can help you find s...

Leasing broodmares?

Could someone please let me know how I would find owners who would lease out mares. I've been having problems in my search. Maybe it's too uncommon a practise?
