Just came across this, and what a BEAUTIFUL mare this is... You have to check out the picture of her most recent foal. What a gorgeous baby.

They only want $200 for her, and w/ New Vocations even though it's an adoption, you're still able to breed them.

Actually I think she is this mare

They bred her to two REALLY good stallions. The pretty much shoot gold. I have to keep telling myself I must sell a mare before I add a new one. But I am going to have to inquire about this one. I've been wanting a big girl however the shipping will cost more than her adoption.

Helen,
Good catch on the pedigree. I've been drooling over this mare myself and would love to hear if you end up with her. Once her two babies go under saddle and start performing, this girl could end up worth a mint if they are anything like their daddies!

Well I knew Pikadero when I lived in California. None of his foals lived around my area, they were ALL owned by Orange County lifestyle people. I did not see a single foal of his under $20,000 and those were small unstarted three year olds out of thoroughbred mares. He frequently hits the $50k- $60k and I know he has kids in the six figures but those horses are never advertised because of the interconnecting circles of big name trainers and sellers they never need to be. Pikadero makes jumpers.
Ideal is just a freak of nature. You can breed him to a grade ewe necked, long back, steep hipped, legs going in four different directions mare and you will still get a foal who scores premium. The movement on some of these foals is jaw dropping. Normally the premium candidates average 8.1/8.2 with maybe one as high as 8.4, but his foals frequently score in the 8.7/8.8/8.9 catergories.
This mare was very smartly bred to two stellar stallions, their stud fees reflect it too.
