I phrased it as a question so as to avoid coming across as telling someone they were incorrect :D . There's too much negativity in most of the threads on this board so was trying to keep it positive. It's like when you tell someone to make a right turn at the light and they get in the left lane... you say to them "the other right" even though you might have been tempted to say 'not left, right'....


Is TG the only son of DM who shows a lot of love for Ribot blood? I really wanted to look at him for my mare but he is in NY and I'm not sending my mare to NY. Don't mean to digress off the OP but the majority of TG's best offspring have Ribot in them.

Would point out that Delta Judge goes to Bleebok, a Blue Larkspur daughter. She is the damline for Roberto as well.

This thread makes me feel quite happy about my young riding gelding who is Bleebok tail female with Deputy Minister as grandsire tail male. He's also got a double to Graustark on his bottom side, and his bottom side is pure Galbreath breeding. RAN is tail female to a daughter of Padua, which would go well with the Blue Larkspur in Bleebok. I'm coming to believe that RAN needs Padua reinforcement for soundness.

In pedigreequery. Someone in Indiana has him.
I had one of his daughters and she was straight. Everyone was talking about the Ky Deputy minister sons.

Well after going back and forth for months I decided against the breeding. Jagger's post "This is tying up a lot of blood in just 2 horses." Finally won me over.

I'm going to go to a stallion at my farm named Peppered Cat. This was a John Franks colt who chipped his knees but showed blazing speed, tremendous toughness and ability before finally succumbing to the chips. This horse would train lame and on race day go out and run 21 and change 44 and change and usually just get beat at the wire. One day he went out and won by 15 in 1:02 flat for 5 1/2 furlongs. He's a gorgeous 17 hands and with a couple of test foals to race both winning early and competitive in first condition allowance out here. His babies are gorgeous. He's a Tabasco Cat.

I think if he gets any mares he will prove himself.
