Another full book

Petionville is now scheduled to meet my mare Hop to It, but their book is now officially full as of this week, and she was added only because we had discussed it with them last week. Nice match on paper, and I think he's an up-and-comer. :)

hi henthorn

Hop to It looks lovely in her photo...and her hind-quarters appears to be impressive.

Best of luck with your selection of Petionville.

Henthorn: Me thinks Petionville is up and coming too. I like the looks of his offspring, at least those that I've seen. Large bones, athletic, and nice strong rear engines. None of my mares match up with him, but I've got a winning gelding by him out of a Cure the Blues mare. He's got a swift second gear, can be rated, and handles distance and terrain. My daughter rides him in cross country events and is cross training for jumps. If he has one flaw it's that he toes out up front, but doesn't seem to bother him. I looked over another Petionville colt about year or so ago at Timonium and he toed out also. Best of luck - Shammy :)
