its Gribaldi you mean!! My friends horse is by him, bit on the hot side, quite quirky, generally not an easy ride as are most of his stock. However they do have nice temeprements.
I wouldnt have him cover anything but a fine mare as his stock can be quite well built, so anything to chunky on the mares side and you might end up with something a bit too large bone wise. however it does depend what you want him for.

I kept meaning to ask about him, as a friend of mine has been sent one to school on.. she's a racing girl, and knows nothing about dressage etc.. the owner was just having trouble riding this hores, so my friend said she'd see what she could do.. well she's in love, and wants to buy said horse (having heard horror stories about the way owner teats the horse).. but she wont pay much more than meat for it, obviously not knowing what the sire was about!!
So do his offspring sell for much?? this is a really sweet horse, that'll come right, just needs a lil time, and the idiot who used to ride him, taken off!!
Should i tell her to put her hand a little deeper and buy it??
i know they can as my mare is a cob and competes medium, however i was just saying that it depends what she is putting him with and what she hopes the end product will be.
Oooo... I have seen a lot of his offspring for sale and I would do anything to have one! However, at this moment in time I cannot afford one so will have to sit and drool too
OOoooo bloody hell!!!! Hmmmm now I'm NOT supposed to be putting B back in-foal, but OOOOOOOOOoooOOOOooooooOOOOooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WOW!!! I like what I hear about him adding substance too!!! hmmmmmmmmmmm
