Hello Jen, Louise is the one to check
out. As a breeding program devoted to the Russian Line and in
particularily *Menes she is the best shot, so call her now. Lynnes loved
her *Menes son Chagall (the name of the farm is Gold Medal Farms w/in the
Registry, hense gm til they got one and then it was GM or was bred by GM)
She looked long and hard for a *Menes mare and just by chance one showed up in
my back yard that i had sold years ago. There are not that many left as
*Menes was shipped back to Europe where his get won 3 of 4 Championships a get
could. That was in Paris and the big winner was Emperator and he was one
heck of a horse. Michael Byatt showed them there. He was more
appreciated in Europe and his owners did not fit the correct political
persuasions here...and Michael was a little like *Menes. I'm sure the
Europeans have some in Endurance. I just remembered a grandson who was a
raffle horse in the OD and was hurt bad in a field accident and it wasn't
thought he would ever be sound but he has over 1400 miles. His name is GM
Judas Forgiven (named after Jesus' brother,Judas) out of
Dickens/Carda.
