I see this boy hasn’t covered a lot of mares this season. Is Darley going to drop him off their roster? What’s the future for him?

Arkady, he hasn't really fired even given his oldest are only 3yo's, and is on the nose at the sales, so I'd suggest he may quietly disappear.

Great pity as he is a beautiful animal and well bred to boot.  But only served 13 mares last year.

I thought he was a big coarse horse and offset in the knees.

Big for a Lonhro but I'm no good picking leg faults!  Probably a fair bit of Danzero to the fore.

Only time I saw him in the flesh, I was up to my eyeballs in Chautauqua for the 2016 Lightning. If his knees were offset that day, then mine were at right angles when he walked into the yard.

Fair dinkum, mean as cat gelati. LOL

Well he certainly is both big and tall, and that may be the problem.

Ok some will be quick to point out exceptions to the rule, but 16.3 stallions or taller stallions have a pretty ordinary records in Oz.

Any news on this bloke since Darley dumped him? Hope he’s not heading somewhere overseas to Asia. Reckon would suit WA as a replacement for Demerit

Hi Arkady, not sure if you found the answer to your question?

But looks like he’s been banished to Oaklands Stud up at Toowoomba - standing for a fee of $4,950.
