| First to shine, I picked up a 5 yo mare about a month ago and she is the by far the smartest, easiest horse I've ever worked with. You show her once and she has it down. No questioning, no arguing, just begging to show her something else.

I have been lol.....I believe he will be a broodmare sire too (but that's just my thinking). I wouldn't be sad if I had a few of them to try out. His dam really was a good producer and runner. I am pleasantly happy with the First to Shine cross on Streakin Six/Tinys Gay too. Wasn't expecting what I got.
But, don't listen to me lol....most of the time I just want to quit it all. |

One of those being the palomino stallion Martha had. And the only one I would have had was mine. He was the nicest barrel horse you would ever want to see. I loved him. And I like all that have been listed on here too. |

He did well on the track. I have a daughter of Leaving Memories that has a SI of 92. She is my broodmare and is every bit of 16-3 too. I have a couple of big babies out of her. |

What is her bottom side? We just bought a mare out of a Tolltac daughter. You know how I love my Beduino . Anyhoo, she has a really interesting disposition. She seems to me, like she has been spoiled by people. Almost like she has been harrassed. I played with her for a week and she really came around to liking me. She's not mean, but if you just keep after her and don't relent, she will pin her ears. We haven't had her long, but so far I really like her. She's about 15 hands and super soggy. Here she is in all her winter splender. SHEZA CLASSIC ROYAL F, QUARTER HORSE, 2001

Oh man! I love how she is bred though. I really want to breed this mare to Jess Jones. Just have to convince my husband. Sadly it's not the stud fees that bother him, it's the AI and vet bills associated. Apparently he has a problem throwing his money around  |

Ill second A Regal Choice. When I was in Arizona I saw many of his babies smoke everyone that ran, and I knew I needed to breed to him. We have 3 mares booked to him this year. A Shawne Bug daughter, PYC Paint Your Wagon daughter, and a Firewater Flit/ Pass Em Up mare that is a daughter of our champion producing mare and a full sister to that mares best colt. I also have a Sun Frost Wonder daughter booked to Leaving Memories and I am very excited about that one also. |

I know right, I totally should have just scamed someone by selling her online as a freindly horse! JK but, dont ever spay a mare with nice papers. Because when it doesnt accomplish what you wanted you are stuck with her forever!! |

My white tie mare was also out of a moon lark daughter, and she was the most docile horse I have ever been around. So I blame A Classic Dash, since I've never been around any others. I never knew her dam. |

| I don't really have a favorite.
I can say, my Fighter On Fire filly is outstanding and I've heard really good things about the ones people have in training. We're expecting foals by Stoli and are breeding to Tempting Dash and Dash Ta Fame this year.
We've bred to several sons in the past and liked them also.
He doesn't have a son that I just HAVE to breed to if that makes sense? Because he was bred to some of the very best mares, he has a lot of very nice sons. I will say, I kind of want another Fighter baby...she is just classy! |

I agree with this. There are so so many of his sons that I just love. Several I would prefer to own a daughter out of, but would breed to so many of them that I can't even begin to list them all. |

I have a Two For The Dough son. He is 5 this year. I absolutely LOVE his disposition. By far the most gentle horse on my property. We bought him off a match racer so he was scared and obnoxious when we first got him. He settled down so much you would not believe it was the same horse. As far as trainability he was SO easy on the dry work and slow pattern work! We are still working on some issues at races. A contribute those to his previous career.
I would love another Tow For The Dough that had never seen the track. I think they would be amazing!

I have yet to find any one who has anything bad to say about Two for the Dough's get. I really think he is a super nice stallion that doesn't get noticed much. I will be breeding my Judge Cash mare back to him this year. I already have people asking me to sale my colt and it hasn't hit the ground.... "Dough boy" has impressed me every time I have been around him with his confirmation and mind. I am so excited for my baby, just don't want to wait years to swing a leg over it, lol!
