Lac Ouimet

Postby Gallop58 » Wed Feb 15, 2006 10:19 am

I've talked to Matt at Starquine off and on, but as I said previously, it wasn't about getting a date with a sire in exhange for my donation, only a side deal where he was trying to help me out to get a reduced fee through his connections, basically as a consolation prize.

In the mean time my mare (Angel in America) has foaled a Tethra filly on Jan 30th and needs to go to the shed imminently. I'll be staying in Ontario to go Ontario sired again. The only reason I wanted to go south was that I felt that Lac Ouimet is (was) a bargain sire for breed to racers and a reduced fee would counter all the hassle of shipping etc. We were looking at NY sires but when you're in the <$7500 bracket shipping anywhere doesn't make much sense.

Now I just have to figure out who to send her to. And quick!

My AEI>CI criteria is pretty tough to find in this market. (I think Bold Executive is the only one @ $10K) I went to Ascot Knight already and may again....(But that's all another thread...)

Good Luck with yours.

Sorry, this should have been tacked on the St. Jovite thread. Not sure if it can be undone :D

after looking at the ontario sires I like your Bold Executive choice.

The other two papers I liked were for Compadre and Whiskey Wisdom and neither will have the numbers you are looking for.

Compadre doesnt appear to have had much success as a sire. Whisky Wisdom hasnt been at it long but a couple of the successful progeny have been with Turn-to.

Peaks and Valleys is in Ontario I think, as well as Where's the Ring (half to Service Stripe)

Have you looked at George's stallion Cache In. He is a son of Lac Ouimet and probably fits your mare better than Lac Ouimet.
