   Location: Arkansas | I have a daughter of Judge Cash who is out of a daughter of Cash Not Credit. I have an opportunity to breed her to a son of Dash Ta Fame. My question: is it too much Dash For Cash? |

          Location: Texas | Probably not. But something to think about. That sounds like a great pedigree, so I'd pay as much as I could afford to a proven stallion. In the words of the old timers, "breed up." |

Agree, although I would say that whatever you are looking to "improve" on your mare...be sure the sire has it... such as if you want more bone and hoof, along with more athletic ability, look for all those things. I tend to look more at confirmation over pedigree though.  |

| I may be the odd person out here, but I would say too much DFC. I love DFC lines, and we have a mare that’s double bred DFC, but we wouldn’t breed her to a stallion with any DFC. There are so many other stallions that would complement her more than anything bred similarly to her, so I would be looking for more of an outcross. There are definitely a lot of people that think “the more the merrier” (look at all the racing QHs with DFC on all four sides), but I would be more inclined to widen the gene pool. That decreases your chance of some bad recessive trait popping up. |

| This would really depend on the look of both horses and the rest of the pedigrees. For me The foal would be a great grand and a great great grand get X2 I dont feel its too much too close. It would only be on the face of the papers 1X if I drew this out properly lol (I need to LOOK at it to makemy choices lol) Also I have no life and its cold. Depending on what the boxes are id do it. Its not crazy heavy with dash for cash IMO.  |

       Location: Peg-Leg Julia Grimm | I think it would be better if the DFC mulitples were sex balanced. But I've seen lots of good horses that were all male crosses. I would pay more attention to physical and mental attributes in the parents than how many crosses on DFC. I think he's an awesome individual who (like Three Bars and Jet Deck) only comes along once every 20 years or so. I have a 4 year old that is double bred DFC (DTF on top and Judge Cash on the bottom) I wouldn't have any problem breeding him to my daughter of Brookstone Bay when the time comes. |
