Broodmare potential??

Postby BridledObsession » Thu Jul 17, 2008 9:52 am

We're being offered a mare named Mary's Saint. I'm unfamiliar with the majority of her bloodlines. Any ideas? Opinions?

Thanks!

She's a two time winner of about $35,000 and she's the first foal out of a Saint Ballado mare who earned over $120,000 and that Saint Ballado mare now has a 3yo by Holy Bull, a 2yo by Pine Bluf, and a yearling by Silver Ghost out there working for her.

There's no black type close up so she's not a commercial mare right now, but there is a slight chance that something out of her dam could one day earn some black type.

If you're breeding to race and if she's a nice looker she might not be an a terrible choice since she could run a little and her dam was a nice runner without being a stakes horse.
