| Which ever is the grittiest, least stubborn, and on the hot side no lazy mares lol oh and height would be a factor I would look at as well
I've had 3 currently own 2 with one cooking for May 2015 and just got my contract for 2015 :) I love them

Both are bred nice so pick the one that would cross best physically and mentally. |

And grand-dam as well. My friend owned Cash Perks and bred her several times to FG and most of them were sold to Brazil. My only problem with #2 is I am not a big fan of Fishers Dash - no offense, but they are not for me. BUT maybe crossed on a maternal line like that would change my mind. |

| Thank you to everyone for you help and suggestions!
I've decided to go with the Fishers Dash daughter this time.
Conformationally she's the better cross of the two. Neither mare is hard to work with but my Bully mare has her stubborn moments and is the hotter of the two. I had my concerns with buying the Fishers Dash mare because I had also heard people's concerns with the minds of Fishers Dash horses. This mare is so easy to work with and is smart! I'm glad I took a chance on her. Lol
Now to figure out who to take the BB mare to! Furyofthewind?

| What's the sale value on Lions Share of Fame? I don't keep colts so always look at what they are worth if I get one?
I'm not familiar with Five Bar Cartel, I'll have to look him up. |

You want high resale you would be best to use the "Hot" sires. Dash Ta Fame, A Streak Of Fling, Epic Leader, Firewaterontherocks, Frenchmans Guy, Blazen Jetolena, ect. Not sons of. |
