King Top

Hello everyone. Can anyone help me with tracking down a picture of King Top (GB) 1969 by Queens Hussar. He relocated in the states for stud duty in the early seventies untill his death in 1991. I have a OTTB by him and would love to get a hold of a pic. Any ideas? Thanks!

Hi,

I can say that King Top's last 3 registered thoroughbred foals hit the ground in 1988.

They are:

Kin to Trouble (dam Betty Reel) Breeder John Armstrong in Illinois

Sir Top Hat (dam Lotta Poise) Breeder John Armstrong in Illinois

Don't Tell Lou (dam Miss Bluebarn) Breeder Leonard A. Paskon in Illinois


that trio earned $430 between them

Perhaps King Top stood in Illinois through the 1987 breeding season, so best to begin your search in that general direction and time.

Hope this helps somehow.

Wow $430 between the three of them? wow! Ok well my gelding by King Top earned $159. Maybe this expalins why he is hard to track! Thank you again for your help. Any reccomendations as to where I should start? Where did you get that info on his foals? Thanks so much!

I too would love to find a picture of King Top. My stallion, Diamond Bill is out of a daughter of King Top. He stands as a sport horse sire and is known for his beautiful movement and jumping talent. I have only seen a few of the King Top's but they were all beautiful movers, very elegant. If you find a picture of him I'd appreciate hearing of it also. Thanks so much.
