I'm anxious to see how both produce but even if they don't the owners have enough money to promote the crap out of them. |

    Location: Dubach, LA | It should be Reds Western Native. I don't know what's keeping him local. His babies are doing super things. |

      Location: NE Texas | Blazin Jetolena, kind of already is, but I think he's going to continue to produce and his offspring is going to be in high demand. I know i'd sure love to have one!
I also know that some of the El Scorcho babies have gotten into very capable hands. I'm anxious to see how they do!

I think you either have to invest a lot of money into promoting a stallion, or have a superstar that wins a bunch of big ones one year. I can think of some others that are in the same boat--lots of outstanding babies winning stuff but not many people know who their daddy is. Jesses Double Dee comes to mind. One of his daughters won the 1D average at the Crawfish Craze race this year by a half a second (won Saturday's race by 3 tenths with almost 400 entered). He's had a bunch of other winners in futurities, rodeos, and barrel races, not just the one, and I am in love with my mare by him, but not many people outside of east TX know who he is. I had never heard of him before I traded for this mare when she was a yearling, and if not for her, I still wouldn't know. |

I really want one of his babies. Really really! IDK what keeps him local either. I do know I've had no success getting emails replied back to when I've emailed about him.. might just have to pick up the phone and call. |

He is a very nice horse without a doubt and so happy that he is producing. He was pretty tough to beat himself when he laid one down!
I think for a horse to really be a big deal nation wide, the futurity trainers have to get their hands on a few and we have to read about them in the Barrel Horse News, etc. Publicity, publicity, publicity. |

While the horses mentioned are all nice horses - I also agree and think this - the more money you have to promote a stallion, the more people are going to look at it.
Like mentioned - getting them into the hands of the trainers that all they do is futurity is the biggest step. And, again, that takes money.

Agree, these two are getting all the best mares right now. They will be the next greats, I think. |
