Elite Veteran Posts: 898 Location: Mountains of VA	Which mare's conformation best compliments FG? ( or visa/versa however you want to look at it). That would be the one I would breed to him. Conformation trumps bloodlines IMO

Expert Posts: 4625 Location: Desert Land	wyoming barrel racer - 2014-12-11 12:15 PM #2's dam has already crossed really well with him. Food for thought. And grand-dam as well. My friend owned Cash Perks and bred her several times to FG and most of them were sold to Brazil. My only problem with #2 is I am not a big fan of Fishers Dash - no offense, but they are not for me. BUT maybe crossed on a maternal line like that would change my mind.

Keep me outta the basement Posts: 1246	Thank you to everyone for you help and suggestions! I've decided to go with the Fishers Dash daughter this time. Conformationally she's the better cross of the two. Neither mare is hard to work with but my Bully mare has her stubborn moments and is the hotter of the two. I had my concerns with buying the Fishers Dash mare because I had also heard people's concerns with the minds of Fishers Dash horses. This mare is so easy to work with and is smart! I'm glad I took a chance on her. Lol Now to figure out who to take the BB mare to! Furyofthewind?
