I also mean conformation not color. Which one throws the most balanced, beautiful babies? |

Location: North Dakota -> Colorado | The foals that are being thrown by a given stud are not decided on just by the stud itself. Mares play a huge part in how the foals are as well. So many people seem to forget that mare power is just as important as the stud power. |

That's fine, it just bothers me a little when everything is focused just on the stud. I also believe it is how the mare is built and how that will cross with the stud build, but maybe I'm just looking at it wrong. |

Completely understand! If I had the mare power, I definitely have a few studs that I would LOVE to breed to. |

Location: North Dakota -> Colorado | I've been following one Katie McCaslan's Ghost. He seems to have huge potential and if I had the opportunity I would cross him on any one of my mares. He doesn't have any on the ground as he is still young, but I'm definitely keeping my eye on him and what he produces. Lions Share of Fame is also another one of my favorites. |

LSOF sure is nice. Do you have any pictures of the Ghost horse, sounds interesting.
ETA: As you can see, mare power is not a problem. Meet Scarlet, 2014 baby. But I totally get your message.

His name is TKW Runaway Fame, he hasn't been hauled much but here is a video. He is by Dash Ta Fame out of an Ocean Runaway daughter

I'm sure I have other favorites as well, I just am drawing a huge blank right now on what I would breed to! Nice looking 2014 baby you had! |

Cold hands and Warm Heart
Location: oklahoma | Lions Share of Fame and bb Amy Schimkes stud Dazzler, can't think of his registered name right now. The baby's I've seen have been pretty but also successful. The studs have the looks but most importantly, pass that on and perform well in their own right. I don't breed, just always been partial to them. |

Without a doubt, Frenchmans Guy! His foals are so balanced and so very pretty and he produces that over and over and over again! . |
