Holy Bull as broodmare sire? [Hi; 94]
I'm not sure this is the right forum for the post, 
but what does anyone think of Holy Bull as a broodmare sire?
I'm looking at Hip #94 in this sale, Wonder Bull by Holy Bull out of Pure Vanilla. Not much of a race record & no foals of racing age, yet, but her family seems to like Turn To line horses (Vanlandingham & Temperence Hill, to name two) & there are a couple in the NY & MidAtlantic area I could breed her to.
Opinions?

I was shocked at the prices and no bids...I had thought after the May sale that this one was going to be a nice mid-level sellers sale. I am sorry that neither of yours sold. I cant believe a mare with a foal couldnt sell..you got to see the foal for petes sake!!! I started being tempted during the yearlings but kept reminding myself that I really didnt want to make the 5hr trip back and forth on Sunday.
Do you know if Breezewood sold #152..I was the underbidder on her yearling filly.
From reading the catalog there will be no November sale?

Imagine our surprise, too - we really expected this sale to be better than it was.
But the timing wasn't very good. No one wants to buy a broodmare this early in the year & the people who wanted to buy anything were looking at yearlings or horses of racing age -- and most of the potential buyers of racehorses were probably at one of the MidAtlantic tracks, since they scheduled the sale for a day all of them except Penn were running.
