Wow, that's interesting! I love the Turn To and Herbager in there (the old Claiborn).

Two questions: What are the St Ballado babies like temperment-wise, with the Halo in there?

Conformationally, Sumwon needs the most help with strong, straight front legs (she toes out) - what is that like, in that lines' foals?

This is fun - learning alot about pedigrees!

Riot, to be honest, I think that it depends on the dam of the stallion too. If you have a quiet mare and breed to an unruly and temperamental stallion, your chances are probably 50/50 that the resulting foal will be either quiet or temperamental. Using Jazil as an example... his sire, Seeking the Gold is a nasty SOB, but Jazil didn't inherit that demeanor. I would guess (and I'm only guessing because I have never personally been around Better Than Honour) that Jazil inherited a quieter personality from his dam.

In regards to conformation, some stallions with what I would consider poor conformation have sired perfect specimens in the conformation department. Sometimes I wonder if it's a total crapshoot.

Here is Holy Ground:



and here is Straight Man:

Barbaro must have inherited all the looks in the family.

Straight Man has "that head", doesn't he?

Both nice stallions, with their pluses and minuses. Too bad you can't "cut and paste" the two together to get exactly what you like It's always a compromise, hum?

I think they're both good looking, but I like the shoulder on Holy Ground a bit better...
