I have had two grand babies out of him and their minds are incredible. I did have an outside horse last year that was a jerk and he was a direct son, BUT I think it was his lack of training from the start. I would think that he would cross well with the RB mares because he is an all around stud, Kelsey did amazing with him in multiple events.

I don't own one but they have great resale value. I was debating on him or Traffic Guy for my JOH and decided on Traffic Guy because of his dam and he is a little bigger and I need some size for her.

Frenchmans Fabulous has a great mind and work ethic that he passes down to his colts! I rode him in high school and won the NHSRA finals on him in the goat tying. He was a great breakaway and head horse as well. I ran barrels on him and won on him there as well as a couple of gals from AZ would jump on him when they needed a horse to ride, he was absolutely incredible! I've ridden a bunch of his babies and they all seem to have his great mind. KN Fabs Gift of Fame has won about $125,000 now, after being sidelined a year to injury. KN Fabulous Chitchat was a 1D barrel horse, head horse and I tied the fastest goat at the CNFR on her a couple years ago. KN Fabulous N Khaki was out of Robbin Dobbin and she was also a 1D barrel mare. I had and rode Buggin To Be Fab before he was sold to Jordan Basset and hes won maybe 65-70k hes out of the Martha Six Moons mare, East Moon. Meghan Johnson has a good mare too, Flyin Frenchman whos out of a daughter of Cash N Balance. Ive rode a lot by several different bloodlines that are all very nice and have won a lot.

I love Fab and his babies! I would also like to add that Kenny Nichols, Fab's owner, is one of the nicest guys you'll ever do business with. I believe he is an outstanding cross on race bred mares.

We have a 2 year old filly out of my daughters Pleasure Dash mare and she is a NICE filly!! Kenny Nickols that owns Fab is just as stated above. one of the nicest, most honest people you will ever meet and let me tell you, thats worth ALOT when breeding your mares. My daughter actually had won a breeding to Kenny's junior stallion Trippin On Fame. When our vet called for the semen, it was actually Trippin On Fame's day off and Kenny didnt really want to collect him 2 days in a row, especially with his age and being his first year breeding. So he said he would if we were set on Trip, or he would be happy to send us Fab's semen. WOW!! Are you kidding me?!! He didnt have to do that and let me tell you, many, if not most would not have. They would have just took a sucks for your team attitude. He is a great guy to deal with and my daughter will forever always be thankful to Kenny Nichols and Fab blessed her with a super nice filly.

We were at BVEH Monday where he stands. He sure is gorgeous and I have heard great things about him but his little feet turned me off. I'd love to have a Fab baby but are his feet a trait he passes or ????

I had one I loved she was a super honest and kind mare. I sold her to a girl in MS and she is doing well with her mostly running 2-D. You could let her sit for months get her out and take right back off where you started. She didn't have little feet she had nice bone, hooves and never took a lame step while I owned her.

 The Fab filly we got has great feet! I have seen a bunch of Fab's as well and none of them have small feet like that either so he's obviously not passing it on.  I'm wondering, now that you brought that up, if it's a Frenchmans Guy thing that just pops up at randum? Only reason I ask is a friend of mine has a John Fame out of a Frenchmans Guy daughter and she has really small feet as well.I always wondered where those feet came from. However it sure hasnt effected her at all because she's won alot on that mare.

I love my fab horse. He is a cross on a six fols mare. He crosses great on DTF like you said, but I would say as long as you cross him on anything with speed it should be fine. I would also make sure mare had some size on her as he is on the smaller side.

We have a 3 year old palomino.  He is very smart and has good feet.  Can't wait for my daughter to get him started.
