I really want this mare

but you all know i'm out of the business.... so someone else go steal her!

an unusual distaff (does anyone recognize these stallions Match the Hatch, Authenticity, or Sky Ship???) with an even more unusual inbreeding to the Uruguan mare Colonia, dam of Pleasant Colony's dam.

And as the ad states, the 2nd dam, Good Heaven's Girl, did produce More to Tell, who won the Stymie H twice and ALMOST a million bucks. ($995,804). I'd love to know the 1/2 sis who is a show horse, but you crazy show people never keep registered names for showing!!

She's big bodied and lovely, I think.

looks to have great bone and nice pasterns, too.

I finally found the half sis, No Angel, by Northern No Trump, that was a show horse.... owned and ridden by Billy Madigan, she apparently is registered as a Hosteiner too and was doing pretty well in the 2000-2002 timeframe. More oddities... she is being shown as DEVIOUS ANGEL, which is the name of her dam! You show people confuse me so much!!! I also found the same guy riding a horse called DISTINCTIVE ANGEL, so maybe there is some naming confusion?

At any rate, the Pleasant Tap mare sure looks like a deal to me.

That mare is in GiGi's family through Colonia's daughter Lakeside Drive.
