Opinions on futurity prospect?
  • This guy is *Star papered, with a PT of 13.5. He's up for free live cover and has sired some foals, so I'm considering whether enough people would be interested in breeding to him! Opinions?

  • He’s untested. Think that’ll put some people off.
  • I understand he's boostrapped, and that's why he's not tested, but that would also put me off to using him. I tend to lean away from bootstrapping for breeding stock personally. I've only used it occasionally for producing higher PT show foals from yellow or red mares.

    For those looking for bootstrapped babies, I think there are other stallions out there with fancier genetics or **star status.

    That's just my two cents though. There could be folks out there who will love him.

  • For bootstrap breeding I personally would pass. He has a decent pt however genetically isn't what I look for.

    If he were mine I'd add him to the show herd or give him away to a player looking to start or improve their own bootstrap pt.

    Just my thoughts.
  • It is worth asking yourself why someone might choose your colt over his sire as well, as the sire is still standing for stud.

  • I really appreciate all of your thoughts! He's still intact mostly because I'm disorganized (LOL), and I used him for a little bootstrap where I didn't want fantasy genes. I'll be gelding him after this month. Thanks!
