Thoughts about the late Zafonic?

Postby erins isle » Mon Mar 26, 2007 4:24 am

One of his sons Volfonic (same size!)will stand in Holland for his first season. In Germany he already sired a nice 3yo. Can you tell something about him, his pedigree?

I worked with 2 Zafonic offspring when I was in Ireland and I loved them. They were both extremely tall (which I heard was the norm) and they were very easy to work with.

Zafonic died at Arrowfield Stud (I got the whole story from the owners son who I worked with.)
