Location: Wonderful Wyoming | he's under new ownership now. I think they are breeding to approved only. He's nice and I think his babies will have a big value. I would love to breed to him someday. |

| Whoever has him had their work cut out. A college girl in this region was running him a year or 2 ago and he was a wreck. Too bad they let people mess him up that bad. He's a really nice horse. Hopefully his new owners can get him back on track. |

Jordon Briggs is already winning on him. . . Shes posted videos and he looks just fine.
ETA: He is owned by Jayme Miller Robison

Go to the "French Streaktovegas" page on Facebook, there is a video from November posted there 
I've also seen results in the Barrel Racing Report. Heading out to feed horses so can't link you right now, sorry!

Hallie got him back in to ride about a year and a half ago or so when he got new owners and did wonders getting him back to his winning ways. Now Jordan Briggs is on him getting ready for rodeos. Can't wait to see him have a fair chance in the rodeo world! |

Unless they have photo shopped his videos as well, he is much smoother put together and shorter backed as a stallion should be. I watched a video of him standing around saddled, not moving and he looked NICE!!! |

| Here is a picture of my Filly by him. She was born March 15th, this photo was taken May 3rd. I was around him when he was 4, he is not big but not Tiny. He is bigger then Slick by Design if that helps. For his size he has big bone and feet, that was one of the reasons I decided to breed to him. I was looking for a stud with good bone and feet but one that wasn't big bodied. Don't get me wrong he is stout but not massive. I personally really like how he is built. I know the ppl that had him his 4 yr old year also heeled on him, they said he was a really nice heel horse.
ETA: The reason I wanted a horse with big bone and feet but not a big body is because I didn't want to end up with the studs big body, but my mares fine bones. Streaks fit this bill the best of any of the studs I had it narrowed down to. Also I love his turning style. My mare is not a horse that works of her hind end, this filly sits on her behind to do everything. The last thing I was looking to improve on my mare was a lower tail set and nicer hip, as you can see in the pictures I think I got that. So far it appears Streaks gave me everything I was looking to improve. Here is a link to her pedigree http://www.allbreedpedigree.com/baby+uno

I'm glad to hear that. I've always loved him and it was sickening to watch that nice of a horse be so mismanaged. Its great to see that he's back to being the horse he was prior to that mess. |

| My mare is a daughter of merridoc. She is long and tall so looking for a stallion with a shorter back and some bone. Would french streaktovegas be a good fit? Or would I be better off with slick by design or blazin jetolena? I want one that could bring good resale as well just in case i dont keep for myself. My mare was off the track with lots of speed. Any other suggestions for under $2500?

Just personally, and I really like both of these stallions, I would choose this roan over Slick because of them limiting his book. I have seen video after video of him running and if he remains in good hands, he'll have a shot at a heck of a breeding future. He has won enough to command respect. Some don't like him, but you can't please everyone with a stallion. I wouldn't give his sire a 2nd glance and look how they sell and what they win. I feel this son of his is going to be one of the better ones. |

You are not going to get good bone with BJO if your mare is already somewhat lacking. Super nice stallion, but I would stick with a mare that is full of substance and maybe 15.1ish tops so to keep the foal balanced. I like a thicker made horse myself though. |

I got to meet Shawne Bug Leo in person a couple of months ago...WOW, what a knock out. He is even bigger in person than he looks in pictures. He has really good bone to him and quite a sweetheart. And I cannot say enough good things about his owner. She is just a doll and great to work with. |

My mare that I bred to Streaks is long bodied, I don't feel like my filly is any longer than her. One of the things I like about Streaks is he has won a lot of money with a lot of different people riding him, its not like he was put into a program for a length of time or really had an consistency with who was riding him. I think that speaks a lot to his abilities. The other stud you may want to look into for your mare is A Smooth Guy. He has a really short back, they said he wears a size 2 shoe. I was down to him and Streaks, I went with Streaks because I could get a better deal on the breeding but I'm thinking about breeding a different mare to him this year. He is in the VGBRA stallion auction also. |

 Emmy? I liked her!!! Good Luck to your friend! Streaks is the kind of horse you would run to the fence to watch run when he came down the alley at a futurity... not too many of those out there IMO.... |

I only got to watch him a couple of times.....my goodness, he can drag his butt and turn one! I'm betting his babies are super nice. It will be fun to watch Jordan on him! |
