Da'Tara

Postby Affirmed1 » Mon Aug 08, 2011 10:09 am

Does anyone know if/where Da'Tara will be standing at stud?

I seem to remember he was sold last year at auction, but I never heard anything about finalized plans to stand him at stud. Given how well received the Tiz Wonderful's and Colonel John's have been, I would think there would be considerable interest in standing any G1 winning son of Tiznow. Thanks! :)

Maybe Margaux? Seems that Foye bought him for LaPenta..

There was talk about him going back into training but I don't see any workouts for him.

Frankly, I think he'd be a pretty good candidate for export. I can't see him attracting any interest to speak of in the US any more than Sarava has, and there are better sons of Tiznow either already at stud or soon to go there.

...to everyone who replied. I sent an email to Margaux asking if they would be standing Da'Tara, but they seem to be studiously ignoring me.

I really hope he gets a chance in the U.S. (or maybe Canada). I'm a firm believer in spreading the Tiznow genes around. Maybe New York would be a good place for him, since he won the Belmont, and N.Y. seems to be stepping up their breeding program. :)

Turkey might be more my bet, or perhaps Brazil.
