Has anybody heard about Buddha and More Smoke going to Pin Oak Lane?

Yes, that's the word from Doc Solomon at Pin Oak Lane - also Service Stripe.

Talked to Real Quiet's manager today and he said that now he won't have an answer until Friday.

I so want Real Quiet to have some kind of stability and the opportunity to get good mares. I hope Midnight Lute will have made that possible for him.

Here's the deal on RQ - they're trying to keep him in PA but he is a high maintenance stallion and they don't have a farm for him. Really hoping it works out.

Sorry for my ignorance, but what exactly is meant by a high maintenance stallion?

Didn't Real Quiet have a bout with laminitis earlier this year? Boy, I'd breed to him in a hot minute if I had the geographical opportunity.

I don't know if it was ever published that he had laminitis, but he did have abcesses in I think both hind feet, which I suppose could have been a precursor to laminitis.
