Trippi

Postby Derby2004 » Wed Nov 23, 2005 10:24 am

up to this date, how would yall consider trippis stud career? He is a top 10 freshman sire, but he hasnt had the first stakes winner yet. however he has had 6 real nice stakes placers with 3 or 4 being graded. Maybe when his first crop turns 3 they will really run better and win some serious races. Trippi did not run as a 2yo.

A friend of mine was his exercise rider when he raced. She said that everytime he set foot on the track, she and everyone else was worried he was going to break down. His conformation and way of going were horrible.

I haven't seen any of his two year olds, but from what I saw as yearlings, they weren't very nice.

hi guys

Trippi is quite pretty, easy on the eyes and has a racy look about him...but (from my perspevtive) he is a bit on the fragile side.

I recommend that if you consider breeding to him...select a VERY strongly made mare with PLENTY of bone.
