Tanner is here in MN. We actually have one of his foals in for training this month. But we've only had him a couple days..so I can't give you much feedback on him. Nice big, well built colt.
Tanner himself is a 3D barrel horse. Seems to have a good mind. Their daughters have all ran him.

We owned a filly by Frenchmans Tanner for a couple years a while ago - bought as a yearling and sold when she was 3-4... She was smaller, but proportioned well and very pretty to look at. She had an attitude but was coming around with more time being worked, I think she really needed a job to do and we never really gave her one. Have always wondered where she ended up.

Thanks guys, good to hear feedback on Tanners disposition. Sad to hear he's not a faster pony but what I've found is he's also spent a fair amount of time in the roping box. Boyfriend ropes and wants to teach me, so that's a plus.
She is cute and well built. I'll be pretty close to her in a couple weeks and might go take a peak.

We had ours in a pen with some young bulls the other day and he kept trying to herd them. Kind of a character.
