jess Posted May 12, 2018 Share Posted May 12, 2018 Be interested to hear opinions of others about this horse. Highview has rights for him for 3 years I think. Anyone seen him or have any comments? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huey Posted May 13, 2018 Share Posted May 13, 2018 On blood he'd be more inclined to work with Aus/NZ mares than in the states. You've got to love his pedigree and good looker too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chestnut Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 Green Desert mares are to the fore here, what is not to like and HC is not too shabby.. again.. if you have the right mare.. why so many are stuck on the stallion is beyond me.. if you don't have the right mare.. don't go there.. but he would appeal to many Sthn Hem given Kris, Sir Ivor, Natalma and Shirley Heights in his lines If you want a good spring into summer horse, and have the right mare, I think he's good value. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
