Showmaker - Opinions on this Stallion please.......

What Showmaker seems to bring to the table is proof of ridability and trainability two invaluable qualities and Im sure most of us would be pleased to have him in one of our stables!
The foal is worth looking at purely on that point of view and the dam will her own characteristics to the table. This forums are surely for reference only then make your own mind.
 
i personally wouldn't use Showmaker on my mares for some of the reasons stated above.
i have seen him twice and thought his trot and canter were both very static without much forward movement- hence his trot looked more like passage and his canter almost 4-beat (also imo, why his changes were so bad). whether this is through training or genetics, i'm not sure, but his movement was not my cup of tea.

HOWEVER...if i saw a foal of his that i liked, that suited my criteria and that was within my budget i would definitely buy it.
