Looking for a stallion in KY

Postby 3nutmeg » Wed Jan 15, 2020 2:00 pm

Looking for a stallion in KY for this mare Wheely Pink. Looking to race potentially in NY+. Stud fee range $5,000 - $12,000. Willing to look outside KY too. Can anyone tell me about her female line and stallions that would work or help her pedigree? Also interested in City Zip lines. Mare is medium-light build. She had some siblings that could run.
Thank you

If you are looking to race in NY,
I would consider Majestic City. He's reasonable (you can beat 5k) and he's off to a decent start. He satisfies the City Zip desire.
Don't know the physical on your mare, but by Wheelaway, there's a good chance that she has size. MC would likely add speed. Drop it in NY, and you have an easier road if you're planning on racing in NY (as a NY bred)

Thanks ct2346, I love Majestic City! He's my #1 NY choice, but since I'm going to have a little more spending money I wanted to expand my search.

I have a chance to send my mare Wheely Pink to KY. I chose these stallions to consider. What are your thoughts on them?
Can anyone comment on these stallions as a match for Wheely Pink? The mare is about 16.2h, medium build. I don't know how to upload a picture.

Kettle Corn (OH) $2,500
Dominus $5,000
Ransom the Moon $7,500
Competitive Edge $12,500
Macho Uno $10,000
Mizzen Mast $7,500
Mucho Macho Man $10,000
Skipshot $5,000
Tale of Ekati $5,000
Musketier $Private
If I choose to stay in NY I'll breed to
Majestic City $3,500

Your help is greatly appreciated!

I'd skip Kettle Corn unless you are targeting the Ohio racing program and are willing to jump through the hoops to get an Ohio bred.. While I absolutely love Dominus' pedigree, I'm not sure he's the one for Wheely Pink. Time crunch prevents me from looking at your other choices.. I'll try later. You plan to foal in NY for a NY-bred?

Pedigree wise of your list I like Skipshot or Mizzen Mast - but Majestic City looks like a very promising cross also.

Mizzen Mast - proven

Run the race - the one that's really worth winning.
