Location: Arkansas | Wow, definitely LOTS of food for thought!! My Lajollas Gold daughter has a filly by Ain't Seen Nothin Yet by her side and is being bred to Mr.Cinnamon Roll for next year. My Scrutinizer mare is being bred to ASNY for a 2015 foal. |

Location: Cocoa, Florida | I've been following the bhr frenchie socks Colts on Facebook and it looks like they're kicking some butt in the futurities. Of course I could be biased because he's standing in FL but I like their style and it would make a good cross with my packin sixes mare.
I would say slick by design would be the next up and coming big sire, a lot mentioned earlier are already pretty popular. I'd like to see what the next big superstar lineage will be, there's so many great ones already! |

| I'm a huge Ain't Seen Nothin Yet fan. I have a filly by him now that is gorgeous and breeding two back next year. Can't go wrong with his pedigree ! Not to mention he looks more like his sire then any other I have seen and sure stamps his foals with that same look. |

| What about Tres Seis? He maybe priced a little too high for the barrel industry though |

Location: Way down yonder in the indian nation~Oklahoma | Not sure if the stallions name is French Brigadier or Frenchman's Brigadier ... either way he's a Frenchman's Guy/Trouble In Texas horse that is very under promoted. I own a five year old by him, and know of several others in this area that are really really nice horses. I believe one of the colts did really well at the Greg Olsen Futurity... I'm at work and can't really check my sources right now... so if anyone knows the true scoop feel free to correct me... I'm really excited about my colt, and I know that the ones I've seen in action have all been impressive! But I'm afraid that this stallion is going to end up being a well kept secret~ |

| I think most- if not all the Frenchman guy sons are producing pretty good. The problem is that there are soooo many of them that none of them can get enough foals on the ground to really stand out. The only exception to this is frenchmans fabulous, and that is likely because he is on the older end of the spectrum. |

Location: NE Texas | I have a Frenchmans Fabulous daughter i'm riding for a BB right now to start on the pattern and i'd sure take another one to ride! She's the first Fab i've ever ridden, and was VERY nicely broke when she came to be, so that in itself makes my job easier, but she's an athlete and in a week she is handily loping a nice pattern. I have ridden some own daughters of FG and I think I like this Fab mare better. VERY nice mare!!!

| I bet. I think all the fg grandget are great, especially when crossed on the right mare and broke by the right trainer. But like I said before the Fabs are one of the few to stand on their own, rather than just on fg's name. Another one I am watching is Guys Real Deal. Pozzi is laying down some really nice runs on the one she has. While they are nice horses, I dont see them becoming the next DTF. |

casualdust07 - 2014-06-05 3:32 PM Sad day…my Stoli mare is open :( No Slick by Design baby for me next year. Bah Humbug. I'm going to put her under lights and try again early :( :( :(
Is this the mare that you had bought to rodeo on and then got sick? It's been awhile and I always liked hearing your updates for her.. I thought I remembered something about breeding her but wasn't sure lolÂ
No that mare had a beautiful filly this year and I am legging her back up to run : ) : ) : ) : ) : )
This mare was one we bought to be a broodmare… but since she is open I am debating using the Slick breeding on maybe Lucy (the mare you asked about ) in the spring if I decide to breed her.. can't decide.. as you can see my mind has changed since like2 pages ago…
WHAT AN ATHLETIC LOOKING BABY!!!!! |

The difference with Frenchmans Fabulous may be the maternal line he has. While its always great to breed close up to the big name (as in FG himself) Caseys Charm sure isn't doing anything but improving the lines. |

 Scooters Savior
Location: "Si Fi" Ville | REDS WESTERN NATIVE!!!! His babies are making a name at the futurities, division racing, and rodeos. I was curious and looked at the futurity sire numbers. He has been bred to all kind mares and have seen him produce on all. His get really showed themselves at the recent futurities.
I made the decision, pulled the trigger, and will be picking up my black colt of a VF mare Wednesday!!! |

Awww. thank you girl!!!
You are doing so good with her
I really appreciate your hard work with her!!!
She has been an athlete since the day I started her. Super nice heel horse and anything you show her, shes got.
I would definitely take another Fab baby in a heartbeat. I like their versatility and the responsiveness.
I personally think he is actually under rated for the type of horses he is producing.
