Does a Stallion's Performance Record Matter?

@vineyridge

Stallions owned or standing at the Verbands are going to find opportunity from the outset, performance career or not. Once their foals come and especially after they go under saddle, the performance career means little or nothing.

These times are long long gone viney.

Ummmm, Totilas’ first crop was 2010. That makes his oldest foals 5 this year. I would not say that he “has produced very little” ---- Dressage horses do not reach the top levels until they are over 10.

And he already has Totally Totilas and toto Jr. who are making big splashes as 4 - 5 year olds.

Ummmmm… huh? Do explain. As far as I knew, “Totally Totilas” was some weird marketing club for Totilas offspring.
