Group 1 winner only one year for 60 odd mares and moved on. Why is that.

Very easy decision for those involved with the stallion to move to a much better stud. No brainer really

I have no involvement with either the stud or the stallion but this magnificent young stallion will be much better off under the management of Russell Osborne & Dr Caroline Duddy at Riverside

R Osborne knows what he is doing when it comes to breeding. In the right hands.
Karl and Susan Kennedy are my heroes

Odd tho that he only got his first season at stud then moved. He could gallop. Looked at him.

Hello,
maybe you are interested to read. Bon Aurum (Bon Hoffa-Goldsmobile by Promentory Gold), his 3rd dam Mauritania is by "The Brianstan", a rare European descent of the AUS foundationmare Juliet.
The Granddam of 'The Brainstan'is by September Errand, a HB of Felstead (Rockefella).
 
regards, Ticino

I rate this stallion a good chance on pedigree pattern & performance.  He will suit a lot of mares
 
Question is will he cover enough good ones. Ken King is giving him every chance apparently from looking at the studbook list of mares covered

Suspect you've perhaps gone to the well once too often regarding that mare.

Totally missed the above mention of Juliet blood!  It's going to be hard on him with only 61 mares served.  It can be done but say taking I am Invincible (who wasn't a G1 winner) his first crop was from 133 mares served.  But all it takes is one good one in the bunch to up the anti.  I find it more interesting that he is from the 1-u female line which has given up Todman, Noholme and Montjeu.  Would be interested to see crosses to any with those in the pedigree or obviously any with the Juliet line or Sovereign Edition blood.
