I think he spent most of his breeding career in WY/SD. Gerald Kraul (sp?) of Gillette WY had him. He is pretty well known broodmare sire around here. I bet he didn't have a lot of foals on the ground. I bred my Firewater Finale colt to a daughter of his this spring. She already had a stunning palomino filly by Guys Piece Ofthe Pie on her side. The ones I have personally been around were very gentle natured and good looking.

Thank you
I just bought a 6 yr old gelding who is sired by Frenchmans Image and out of a Dashin Moon Shadow daughter and just didn't know much about the lines. Good to hear about the gentle natured part. I bought this gelding sight unseen and from all the videos and what she is telling me he seems to be extremely gentle. I contacted the breeder as well and he said that the mare the gelding is out of produces dog gentle horses so I am very excited about that as I have two little boys at home that will probably end up taking him over some day! LOL
We had a stallion who was similarly bred to Dashin Moon Shadow. He had the Streakin Six crossed with a Mito Moon mare but with a dash of Merridoc in there instead of Dash For Cash. We crossed him with a double bred Dash For Cash mare and they had a heck of a colt. I always eyed Dashin Moon Shadow bred horses for that reason.
