--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I have gotten a very good deal on a live foal season to him..what are the groups thoughts on him? I will most likely breed him to my mare Bobbie Gene (sorry to my stallion-George stealing your girl ), as spendthrift liked the mating. She won 5 races 3 2nds and 3 3rds in 19 starts and earned $69,058. nice mare for regional racing..(I think)..anyway Pike Pass has an A+ nick with my Devil his due mare but she is borrowed out and visiting Crypto Clearance..so my choices are limited. There is a mare I am looking at up in Canada her name is haggled kiss and she is inexpensive...which mare would be better for Pike Pass? Haggled Kiss earned $110,000. thanks all as always!!!
stacy

thanks!

Haggled Kiss. W/ Bobbie Gene I'd be concerned re. soundness issues from the 2x Mr. P.

JMHO

thank you. I was concerned about that too..but they liked the 3x4 to him? thanks!

It's done frequently, and occasionally quite successfully. I'm biased b/c we have an OTTB gelding 3x3 to Raise A Native in whom it didn't work, at least not from the standpoint of soundness. Sweet guy, good for light work or pleasure, VERY trainable, no bad habits whatsoever - but he's a 7yo standing on ~30yo ankles.

Hope you got a very good deal if you are intending to sell they aren't bringing much. If you are breeding to race, best of luck, I really like 49'er stallions.
