Location: Pennsylvania | Never experienced this bloodline. Did a little research, curious what others have to say. Thank you in advance. |

| I had a little bunch of them when I was in highschool. Old school blood lines!
Fast, strong, hard workers, but mine were all a bit waspy. |

Location: MI | My 1st stallion that I ever owned and stood was by Kid Flash (Tiger LeoxWarLeo's Carla) His bottom side was Sugar Bars. We bought him 2 yrs after he was retired from track but was still only track broke. He was a ton of work and energy and could be really frustrating. The last show I took him to, I won the High Point performance horse title with 26 points and Reserve had 12. He telescoped and died a week after that show. We had 5 of his foals after he died but none ever showed the talent their Daddy did. Maybe I just didnt put the time and effort into them like I did him |

| my gelding is out of a mare that is bred that way... So he is a grandson I guess.
that's too far back to matter I suppose but he is SMART, too smart. Was late to mature but was worth the wait. I love him. he's also absolutely massive. |

Location: Pennsylvania | Glad to hear all of this, thank you for sharing. A first look I was like oh no it's a pleasure line but dug deeper and it's way more than that. I'm purchasing a filly that is Firewater Flit x Easy Dozen on top and Tigeraflame (Tiger Leo x Flaming Jet), Tiger Leo (double bred) on the bottom. I'm really excited about her. |

Location: Roping pen | Had a grandson. Not the most athletic, and was very flighty. Ended up being a fairly decent head horse, but was 8 before I considered him ready to haul. Sold him to a lower mid-level header that is winning on him. I wouldn't go out of my way to buy another. |

Location: Arizona | Just thought I'd mention, Tiger Leo had a full sister named Connie Leo who was a AAA race horse and also had an arena ROM. When bred to Sugar Bars, she produced Connie Reb (stakes winner), Connie Reba (AQHA Champion) and Quick Henry (AQHA Champion). You might have noticed Connie Reba on the bottom side of A Streak Of Fling's pedigree (as the dam of Calamity Jones). Both Tiger Leo and Connie Leo seemed to cross well on Sugar Bars and Jet Deck lines. |
