With Approval

Postby vaponydoc » Thu Aug 25, 2005 1:19 am

I was sad to read that this guy is headed overseas --

Definitely a solid, proven sire and he covered a respectable 68 mares in 2004 (73 in 2003, 85 in 2002.)

Is the sale due to poor interest in the States or due to high demand in Britain? Any thoughts?

Welcome to the forum. This question is already in a thread on the STALLIONS forum. If you want to delete this one and chime in on the other, you'll prevent confusion.

Sorry for the delay, as I was out of town. The avatar is the May 20th, 2005 colt by Silver Ghost out of my mare Spanish Guitar (1998). He's a corker.

I actually do have a home-bred 2001 gelding by With Approval named Motion Approved, a winner of MSW and ALW NW2, that I sold last year before he showed any interest in racing. He started winning at four. He's in the database.
