Has anyone seen his babies? Thoughts?

Ok, all you CA breeders, have none of you seen any of these yearlings? I don't think they were offered as yearlings at the Barretts sale, there was a weanling that brought nothing in Oct, so I am wondering where they all are? He did not have a small book the last 2 years, they can't all be still on the farm. Now I am really kind of curious, as to where they are and what they look like. They were offering a money back guarantee if he is not the leading CA first crop sire next year, but if they are all invisible....

Visualize the Alphabet.

Visualize the letter "Z".

Visualize horses' legs.

I'm visualizing, and my visions are looking ugly.
It's hard to run all over the state looking at yearlings and their breeding package for him is enticing.
Thanks for the feedback.

We have had 2 foal by him both very correct and great looking big individuals. Love them. A yearlin sold in the CTHS alberta sale for $20,000 and that was an incredible price for that sale with nos hope of racing in Alberta in 2009

I bought my first mare in foal to MWC back at Barretts in 2007. I initially planned to breed-to-sell, but I have been so impressed with the foal that I decided to keep him. He is a yearling now, has good size, and is for the most part correct (he does toe out in his right front slightly). I had the same questions about MWC regarding the lack of sales horses (see separate post). I actually think it is a good sign... thinking that owners, including Tommy Town, are keeping these foals. I think Tommy Town is committed to him, which is shown by the money-back guarantee they are offerring.

I didn't see your post, I should have looked, although I did try the PQ "search" feature and obviously did it wrong. We may do Old Topper and Ministers Wild Cat for 2 of our mares. TT gives us a great multi-mare booking, but I was a little unsure of MWC. Thanks for your input.
