| I love my boy BHR Frenchies Socks! My 6 year old by him made the derby finals at Ft Smith with a 16.81 and he drug the first with his hip in the finals and eased through after that and was a 16.71 talk about make you sick to your stomach! Also my 5 year old Easy Goin Guy had a 17.1 in the trials and drug the first or he would have made it back and he runs in a smooth mouth O-Ring with no tie-down! I LOVE LOVE LOVE my BHR FS babies and if people overlook him that's fine by me I will have some for myself! Lol! We have our first cross with him on a DTF daughter for next year and have bred better mares year after year so it should be a very exciting future!!!! |

| JL dash ta heaven will have a first crop of 2 foals hit the arena next year, if they make it. His first real crop to hit the arena will be in 2016. They should do good, but at that price tag, most will be out of Juds program.

For some reason I thought he has been breeding for a few years, since his futerity year? I thought I read shed have to take him to be collected on the way to one. I must be rather mixed up on what stud that article was about!! LoL

| Sorry, I wasn't very clear. Those are the years they will hit the arena. The first 2 foals were born in 2011 and the two additioal crops of about 40 foals were born in 2012 and 2013.

No kidding! $5000 is a little steep for one with no performers yet. Firewaterontherocks is $3500 for 2015. Frenchmans Fabulous is sure sireing some big time winners. He's at $1,850. Blazen Jetolena is another one who is sure putting alot of top horses out there. I will be interested to see what Epic Leader and Slick By Design put on the ground. They sure have bred alot of VERY good mares so if they dont make much noise, it sure wont be because of lack of mare power under them nor will it be because they didnt get in to the top hands. |

   Location: Texas | 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 :( :( :(

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…

I didnt even know what his stud fee is, I just remembered his futerity year lots of people thought he was the next great sire and I never seen him mentioned so I was just cerious as to what's happned to him is all. |

Oooohhh! That is a beautiful baby but I say if all goes well when you start running her, don't stop!! You two were a great team. I am a slick fan though, I think whichever mare you use your breeding on will have a phenominal foal |

      Location: north dakota | I really like Firewater Ta Fame, A Smooth Guy and Firewater Finale. I have a really nice Firewater Ta Fame filly that's 3 weeks old. I'm breeding a mare this year to A Smooth Guy that crosses well on Sunfrost/ Frenchman Guy. (She has a really nice Frostman San Peppy filly on her side. Frostman San Peppy has produced some really nice barrel horses, but he's not a new sire). I also am breeding a mare to Firewater Finale next year. She's already produced a nice foal from him.
I really like the Tres Seis line also. My friend and I partnered on a son out of producing mare and plan on raising some barrel and track babies. |

I like him ALOT too! I remember getting to watch him run in I think Broken Bow and loved him! His babies also look fun to ride!!!
LOL... I also remember looking at Kiss This Guy tied to the fence at the BBR and the drool coming out of my mouth! :-)

| Slick ended up breeding between 225-240 mares this season. We feel very blessed so many people have seen in him what we see. Not very many studs can be in the breeding barn and on the road running at the same time and mentally handle it. It doesn't seem to even phase him. He loves his job of being at the barrel races. Thank you again to all of the supporters of Slick. |

Do you think it will hurt the resale value of his foals by breeding that many mares? |

| In my opinion the horse market doesn't work like that. I buy a horse for the quality of that horse. If I am at a huge barrel race and the top 3 horses are all from the same sire I'm not going to not breed to that sire or not want one of his offspring because there where too many of his babies winning. If anything I am going to breed to him next year. I'm sure everyone will have their own opinion on this so I guess time will tell.
