Pedigree Query

I have one in the early part of Monday's session. We should know after the first 5 or so if this sale and the new format will be a success. I sure hope so.

Another bad day for the breeders in Ontario, especially the smaller breeding outfits. Gross sales, median price and average price were all down around 20%. This Saturday's Open Session should be brutal.

Our mare, Goldie's Road, foaled a Niigon colt early this morning (3:00 am). Everyone is doing just fine

The Mixed Sale was very disappointing. The Broodmare results were just plain terrible. Of the 96 offered for sale, 50% (48 horses) did not sell. Of the 48 that did not sell, 66% (32 horses) could not even get a bid. The average dropped from $6,380 in 2007 to $3,363 this year. The median dropped from...

If you are not part of the “in” group or if you are a small breeder, you do not have a chance of making a profit by putting your horses through the Yearling Sales (CTHS Ontario) . It was another dismal sale for myself and I am sure for many many others. The little guy just doesn't stand a chance. Ju...

Ditto for me too!!! Our mare, Goldie's Road, foaled a Mobil filly early this morning.

Who were they in foal to?

Happy New Year to everyone and Happy Birthday to all our horses.

As a new year begins, everyone is full of optimism especially those with new foals to be born, mares to be bred and horses to get ready for opening day. I want to extend best wishes for success to everyone.

Thanks to the last two individuals who posted. Nice to see that there are some decent people on this BB. I have learned alot since getting into this business. One thing is, that everyone is an expert. Everyone is quite willing to tell you that you are doing everything the wrong way. I also learned t...

Yes nythoroughbredvz, I bred her according to YOUR formula for success. I now have for the filly version of Secretariat. It's no wonder that you want to be a part of it. You know a good deal when you see one. But sorry, I wouldn't want to take you away from the bayponys partnership you wish to be pa...

i dont recall bayponys saying they were breeding to sell?

If that is the case, then he gets to keep and race YOUR version of Secretariat all to himself. And he will have you to thank for it.

My apologies bayponys .... by all means breed your two mare according to the recommendations of nythoroughbredvz or crystal . I don't want to go down in history as the one that stopped you from breeding the next Secretariat or Sir Gaylord. I have bred some poorer quality mares to some decent studs a...

Correction Jenny.... that's two horses for $975 (in total) and have two horses in training for $90 - $200 a month (in total). Let's face it.... the cost of a horse is the least of your worries. It is the expenses that will kill you. This partnership tries to minimize the expenses while at the same t...

Hey Crystal did you actually look up the mares before you made your selfish little recommendations. Your suggestions definitely make you the winner in any breeding that "Bayponys" will do. Bayponys ... as a breeder myself, I would advise you not to breed these two mares. Gracie Lu is unraced and her...

Hey Ryeno Why would you ever breed to Western Trick? The stud only raced 3 times and is still a maiden with earnings of $12,060. I know you like to race horses on the cheap...I guess you like to breed horses on the cheap too. I would bet my left nut (as you like to say) that when you try to sell the...
