South American sires in Oz

Postby wallinga » Thu Nov 09, 2006 9:15 pm

With Invasor doing so well stateside. Just wondering if there are any South American bred stallions standing in Oz, aside from Red sun (by equalize) and Investor's dream (by Spend a Buck). Those South American damlines are such a good outcross. I love Red Sun but having said that Savage Toss was a total failure. any thoughts?

I can't think of any offhand, but I do know that the U.S. bred SENOR PETE (who was such a sire sensation in Argentina) fell off the charts in New Zealand.

There are several Argentinian bred sons of Southern Halo who are doing well in Australia. Im sure our Aussie friends here can expand.
