Inbreeding to Lion Cavern & Gone West

Lion Cavern and Gone West are full brothers. Whatsthescript, whom, after racing, may return to breeding at Tommy Town Throughbreds here in CA, has Lion Cavern as his broodmare sire. I like the idea of breeding my mare (gone west sire line) to whatsthescript to get inbreeding to these full brothers. Does anyone have any thoughts on this?

Thanks for that! Sounds like it just depends on the quality of the siblings!

I agree, that seems to be the point that the author is making.

So, I'm your opinion, how would Gone West's sibling, Lion Cavern rate to you? Seems like, out of all of his siblings, he's had the most influence, at least in Europe.
