Low quality picture of a high quality horse.

There is no waitlist at this time.
I don’t like to waitlist the young stallions for lots of reasons but I’ll try to explain some.
1: I want to know they are fertile and they have not been collected at this time. Until I see swimmers… I’m not taking a dime from anyone.
2: A young stallion typically has a lot less drive, and even at two, is not able to collect as much to cover a decent amount of mares. In my opinion… if they do have a lot of drive, that c**t will likely not end up as good of a competitor, because they clearly are looking forward to one thing over another.
3: I will usually breed a handful of mares myself, or a few outside mares, just for quality control measures. It’s a ton of time and money to have and promote a stallion, so I better like what they are putting out or it’s certainly not worth all the trouble.
4: A good temperament is not enough to keep their cojones. 🥜 Of course I hope all these guys get to keep them, but they have to show they can handle training and workload. Socialization. Hauling. Mental clarity, etc.
Flodios pictures today, he is a yearling and will likely cover a few mares next season.
