Thank you!

The breeder told me the colt is for turf...and to classic distances... (a mile and a half, maybe)...the filly is more a sprinter...but he didnt told me her surface, yet...

I'm no expert either but the progeny records don't seem overly impressive and if they are correct and up to date (not sure whether Brazilian horses are kept up with) these would represent the 1rst winners for each mare???
If both horses are sound though I don't see how you could go wrong (pricewise) especially for the colt.

The colt´s damn has 3 classic placed sons out of 5 that raced....(one of them, former track record holder at 7,5 furlongs on the dirt surface)...all of them won at least 2 races on their campaigns...She won 2 races herself at 3 and 4

The filly´s damn has only one race son, which is a classic placed colt. She won 2 races herself at 3

They are sound i think...i will send a vet to take some exams next week

Then I think you answered your own question. Hopefully they pass inspection and Good Luck as a new owner..

Thank you dellinger!

But are their pedigree good? Besides the record of their damns? Does they have good family bloodline, which may increase the expectation of a good career? If they race well...will they be well valuated on breeding?
