Looking at 2 yearlings. Both out of the same stud who is a son of Haidas Little Pep. Filly is granddaughter of Skeets Peppy. Colt is grandson of Gay Bar Lena. Which is the better cross on the Haidas? I can't decide

I just sold one who was out of a Haidas Little Pep mare by a son of Dual Pep (Rey Dual, full brother to Dual Rey).

He was/is neat - on the smaller side at 14.1 but quick and wasted no time.  He went to a 12 yr old girl who is cleaning up on him at Jr High rodeos now.

Only bad thing I really have to say about him would be his feet were tiny and very upright.  Once we figured out how to shoe him no issues - but he was a shoe pulling son of a gun before that and then got sore being barefoot going down the road due to a slight club foot.

id take another one in a heartbeat if they were closer to 15hh

I'd have to go with GBL, but it's the cutting enthusiast in me!   My "it's their fault I have 5 horses" great friends have a son of HLP; they of course bred him to tons of cow horses, but also some racing bloodlines.   (I believe there was a DFC granddaughter in the mix.)   There were some nice barrel horses that came from those breedings.   That said, I wouldn't turn down either of them

Good luck with whatever you decide!
