I like alot of the Dixie Unions , I used to gallop him and he was always a class act , I like the War Chants , very sensible horses that have alot of charater and real intelligent looks about them.
Most of the Grand Slams I have been around I like , they are usually hearty horses with the ability to go short and long on the grass or the dirt.
Its hard for me to pick a favorite sire line because we get so many well bred horses thru the barn , but as you can see I can tell you the one's I dont like lol.
We do have a Mineshaft baby that I like , he has in incredible way of moving but is just a little bit immature right now but down the road I think he is going to be something .
I hate to tout horses because sometimes they dont live up to my expectations so Ill just leave it at that , we do still have some 2 yr olds for Wayne Hughes that I havent seen yet and some more for Diamond to come in so hopefully we can keep the winning trend going with our babies.

Yeah Dixie Union! I think B. Wayne Hughes has bought every yearling I've ever liked at auction. LOL

It will be interesting to see who really pans out next year between the Empire Makers, Vindications and Mineshafts, all of which I think Wayne picked up one or two!

This yearling sale in July at Keeneland has some Olmodavor and Action This Day babies in it. Mr Hughes' horse manager Seth has said that the Action This Day babies are good looking , he said he was suprised at the strong looking hips they had on them coming from the Kris S line .
Olmodavor was an A.P Indy horse we had , he came from France and never ran as a 2 or 3 yr old. He was beautiful horse with such and intelligant eye , he ran second once to Mineshaft and second to Medaglia d' Oro I think he won a graded race at some point , not a real fancy porfolio , but I think he could be worth a taking a chance on .
