i know other horses have had issues at first, but his have dragged on for years now. slew was a timid breeder at first.

i think war emblem would be worth working with, if you can find the root cause....

Initially, he would cover some mares and totally reject others, without rhyme or reason; no pattern could be detected in which he would mate with and which he would reject - not color, not markings, not experience (maiden mares vs veterans). He just liked some mares and didn't like others. That's why he has some foals on the ground.
