I always liked GS. Almost bred a mare to him but even at the reduced price he was still too rich for me.

Florida geez people will take a shot on anything I guess. I guess if you want a 6f 7500 claimer he is your guy.

I think you can get a great deal on any reasonable mare to Grand Slam..

I think I could have had a season to GS at close to 1/2 price but it was still a little steep for my modest regional program

The industry is still messed up by not having Sunday Silience and his Halo influence absent from our stock..

Hancock couldn't give that colt away nobody wanted a Halo. Finally Whittingham took him and the rest is lure.

Grand slam at 1/2 price isn't too bad at all.

I dont know that he could make that much of a difference overall. A lot of his success was on the turf and his affinity for Northern Taste mares. He may have been a great sire here also but maybe he would never have gotten a real chance. It is interesting that only recently has anyone imported sons of his.
