Jorge?

I posted this in Color Corner, with no responses. Thought I'd try here.

What's happened to Jorge? I noticed a lack of posts, then checked and found out that he hadn't posted since mid-May. I always enjoy his comments--hope everything is OK.

Just curious.

Blue Eyed Streaker colt third in debut

Koda Chrome, a 3-year-old frame overo colt (Blue Eyed Streaker X A Beauty Black), recently finished third in his debut at Belterra. Congrats to owner/breeder Echo Hill Farm!

Re: Best tempered Stallions or bloodlines?

French Seventyfive had a very good disposition. Our 4-year-old filly by him apparently inherited it--and having a dam and grand-dam with similar dispositions just made it all the better. One of the quietest youngsters I've ever worked with, but admittedly I'm a little biased...!

Website errors aside, I'm not impressed with any of their stallions. I think you could do way better elsewhere, especially with the upcoming service auctions.

Did Snowbound Paisley die? I saw an Equinenow ad today that said the filly for sale was by the LATE Snowbound Paisley. Can't find any information about it. Anyone know anything?

French Seventyfive--the last known stallion w/Ambiorix sireline in North America--died last year. Ambiorix was 5 generations back, so not close. F75 sired very few foals (<45?) and unfortunately all the colts were gelded. Is this colt a viable option to save Ambiorix tail male lineage? http://www.p...

Since pedigreequery data can be entered by anyone, sometimes inaccurately, it's possible that a horse could be listed there but not JC registered. Better to confirm registration with brisnet.com or equibase.com (if racing age), which are JC databases.
