Won almost $38K on the track and was a AAA. Used for trails and a Pony horse at the track afterwards. They person that currently has him has only had him about a month. She hasn't ridden him yet, as she is to busy and wants a horse already patterned. |

| I like the name. It raises a red flag that she's only had it for a month and hasn't ridden it. I'd try the horse for yourself, get it vetted, and if the price is right THINK about it. Just cover your bases first. Maybe contact the previous owner and see what the story is too.  |

Just curious, why do you say that? |

I agree, nice set of papers to me. What did I miss that turned almost everyone else off? Just curious. |

Just as leery about people selling horses who came back from the trainer, but they haven't rode the horse yet. |

 Own It and Move On
Location: The edge of no where | How much do you know about the riding ability of the current owner? I'd probably go ride him and see what he was.....depending on age. If he was cheap, vetted and I liked how he felt when I got on, I'd probably take a chance if I wanted a project. There's about a million more variables that would go into the decision other than breeding that it's impossible to say off a set of papers. What distance did he win at running? |

Location: Missouri | I love a lot in his pedigree, Easy Jet, Raise Your Glass, Streakin La Jolla... So yes, I would definitely look at least! I have an awesome trainer friend that I would trust to help make the decision.
Let us know if you get him! My mare is bred to a son of Fishers Dash and due in a month. I've only read good things about them, besides the negative comments on this board. So, hopefully it will be a good choice :) |

May I ask why? Just out of curiosity... |

| I am going to look at him Saturday. I don't know what distances he raced at. She has been sick. IF I do buy him, he won't be just a barrel horse, he will be a ranch horse and possibly a pick up horse. He's got three "chances" to work out for us, then he's gone! |

I noticed they are selling some Fishers Dash grandget through the WYO sale. Surely they know how to work...
Good luck!

| I like his breeding myself, but I probably wouldn't based on that he had 27 starts. If he was super cheap and passed a vet check, I may be reconsider though.
