| What are some of your must haves? Anything particular you want to improve? Race type breeding? |

| I would cross her on a FWF stud, there are a lot of nice ones out there to choose from! Or Blazin Jetolena. :)

Lions Share of Fame for sure. My friend is running one and I love him. He's sweet and kind and is so athletic!!! Someday I hope to have one. |

I agree with this. What are your ultimate goals and concerns with the foal? Is marketing a specific concern. Do you only want to keep a filly? a colt? Do you want allaround or just barrels? Do you want to breed later. With a mare that nice, you have lots of options. |

| I am mainly looking for A stallion that is proven and speaks for itself. (keeping budget in mind). One that will have great re-sale on its babies, but will also be a great prospect for my barn if I decide to keep. If I get a colt I may even keep as a stallion for future breeding. I am still up in the air with what I want to do for sure. But I want an impressive cross that people will be seeking for their next prospect if thats the route I go...
I know, this probably doesn't help much :-) |

Location: Gainesville, TX | A dash to fame bred sire would certainly be a great outcross as would a firewater flit. There are several options. As far as one that might throw a good enough one others would be interested in a stallion prospect.
Blazin Jetolena (my personal pick for her in your price range, not a complete outcross but you have a few generations between common names--purported to be smaller)
Chasin Firewater (booked full but may still be available via stallion auctions--I've heard some were hot though I had a filly who was decent minded but definitely not a dead head)
Slick by Design (has a big book, could affect market, super popular and gritty though)
Shawne Bug Leo (I've heard good things about the mind on these and they tend to be STOUT)
Firewater ta Fame
LSOF
Alive N Firen (also purported to be hot--Pozzi's Duke)
However if you were willing to jump up your budget just a touch, you would really jump up in terms of market value and DEFINITELY in terms of stallion prospects. All at 3500 with significant resale and quality
Eddie Stinson
A Streak of Fling
Firewaterontherocks (also booked full for 2015--check stallion auctions)
Another Sunfrost one I would consider that I bet you could get in a stallion auction at your budget is PC Frenchman's Hayday.
