I wish you the best of luck, but do this only with money you can lose, just like playing the slots, because no money is likely to be made with a mare like this.

There is a very good chance she will pass her unsoundness on to foals, and if not, she didn't have any speed anyway.

Ok, guys, we've established that this mare shouldn't be sucking air, is not commercial. Not very many of them are.

I mentioned Sir Ivor in my previous post because although her sire line goes to Mt. Livermore, her phenotype is more like her bottom side and Sir Ivor. And I don't know what her damsire Nikoli looked like. From my perspective (and who really knows) it seems that when choosing a stallion it is useful to look at phenotype.

Still pouring over the catalogues. Its part of the FUN, guys. Otherwise none of would own horses.

I'd stay right in Oklahoma and go to King Of Scat

Aurora,

You are absolutely correct. It should all be fun, or none of us should do it.
