He got six (i think) mares in foal. It will be interesting to see what his few progeny turn out like.
i wonder if they'll have crooked tails??


i think he'd have to really have some good swimmers in there before they try again--all those re-dos if he is still sub-fertile. yeah, i knew they said sub- not in-, but seemed the easiest way to describe it! hell, maybe they're just shy.





odd tho, isn't it. horse named for a guy with no children, and he's sub-fertile. what are the odds?!

If GW (the horse) was actually human he'd be like the popular kid at school who all the kids wanted to hang out with and then all of a sudden his girlfriend told everyone he was crap in bed

I hope his progeny turn out to be very good, i'm not sure which mares he got in foal, but he would have only been given the best mares possible.

It just makes me think that maybe something has changed. He was taken out of the QEII at the last moment, same has happened with the Champion (which doesn't look like a strong race), and there hasn't really been a reason.

In my opinion it is still favourite that he doesn't turn up at Monmouth, either.
