Abraaj to Canmor

Postby Cree » Mon Dec 14, 2009 4:52 pm

He's a Carson City son who they purchased at the Keeneland November sale. He will stand for $2500.
I like Carson City sons at stud. Any thoughts on him?

He's a graded stakes winner with a nice page.

My only knock is my informal rule that "If I can't pronounce it, I'm not breeding to it".

And there are others that follow that rule which could hurt his popularity.

I was very impressed by this horse, was bidding on him for a client in a sprint regional market. His win in the Alfred G. Vanderbilt is worth a watch, very game. I also liked the look of Leelanau, would have been nice to see him start him off in a smaller market, hard to get much done in Ky with his numbers, All Trumps sold at kee and looked the part not sure where he is standing?

This cell phone pic does not do him justice
