Pedigree Query

Does anyone know who owns him, or where he stands? He only has 2 fillies listed as offspring in this database, and I can't find anything else on him anywhere.

Thanks,

Jodie

He stood in CA as of 2004. (Google)

He's ranked on the "Blood-Horse" top sires list in CA with one runner/winner.

Brisnet lists his owner as George Baker of George Baker Ranch (209-668-3806). It only lists a few foals (none for several years), and only two to race.

He was one of our favorite horses when he was racing. He held his head really high and had a beautiful, long, elegant look - the look of eagles. His trainer generally raced him rather than work him out, so he had (shudder) 144 starts. He and stablemate Jacksonport seemed to race every week for years, so we had sort of a sympathy fan club for them.

I just looked around and found Jacksonport died in 2003, darn it. But there's no death listed for Federal Funds. With how hard he worked, I hope he's still around.

I think he's still around. I think he was owned by Grey Willows Farm. The doctor and his wife both died in a short period. They had a complete dispersal and sold their other stallions at auction, but he was not put in the sale. Just before they died, they must have felt like they were getting old and wanted to reduce their herd. They put a BUNCH of horses in the Pleasanton auction, but it was a disaster. The horses were dirty, no one kept the stalls very clean, and they all looked shabby. They hardly drew a bid, and they took them almost all of them home. I have to say this though: I thought the FFs were fairly decent looking, considering the quality of the mares. He had a nice pedigree and a chance at success if he was bred to some decent mares and managed well. There were several yearlings and weanlings by him. Maybe a lot of them didn't get registered after their deaths...
