MUCHO MACHO MAN - Thoughts?

Postby jellac » Tue Aug 17, 2021 10:27 am

Am considering acquiring a mare sired by MUCHO MACHO MAN for breeding.

Without any vet exam as to her broodmare suitability at this point, she meets most of my other basic requirements of a prospective broodmare. Would like to hear this board's members thoughts on MMM as a broodmare sire? Also your thoughts on who/what sire lines/inbreeding offer the greatest potential for producing a race horse with an MMM mare?

He and his sire are solid but underappreciated performers and I've gotta believe he will be a solid BM sire. Depending on what you're trying to do, being unproven and his stud fee not that high, his foals wouldn't bring too much at a sale based just on that unless he throws great specimens or the female family is great up close.

Thanks for your reply Joltman - definitely gives me more 'food' for thought on this decision.

Hey, jellac— did you end up with the MMM daughter? Wondering what you think of her.
