Overbrook Stallions

Postby Pacific Classic » Tue Jun 09, 2009 3:42 pm

The "closing" of Overbrook and relocation of the stallions, including Jump Start is the best news I've heard in a while. I do not have a very high opinion of that outfit, based on my own experience buying seasons from them and breeding to their horses. I think Jump Start is a nice horse and hope he will be handled better and more honestly elsewhere.

There is a Jump Start 3-year-old at Hastings who won by 4-5 lengths to break his maiden a few weeks ago. That horse can run.
I'd love to see him in BC, but I think he is far to good of a sire.

Here's a question: Do you think these stallions will remain in Kentucky, or do you think they could be moved to a regional market?

It would be nice if Jump Start could come to Oregon, but I highly doubt that will happen.
