It looks like Judgement ISF and Fuerst Gotthard only do frozen...not sure about iron man. I know my vet can do fresh...I think I remember her saying she did not have the equipment to do frozen (I have a call into her to be sure).

The more I look, the more I seem to confuse myself.

I am not pushing Ironman but I do know he has been rated number 1 for hunter/jumper for several years.

All his babies are sellable and command good prices.

From another site this person posted some pictures of her Ironman babies. Here thay are.

What do you think of these stallion suggestions? - Chronicle Forums

Thanks for the photos. I also checked out the ironman offspring on his website. I will keep looking into him...he seemed to be quite popular on the conversation you linked to.

What are thoughts on Gatsby?

I personally prefer the Avalon Equine stallions - especially Mannhattan. Excellent OLD NA with amazing scope. http://www.avalon-equine.com

I also love Eldeweiss du Bonce. He's awesome.
My mare is in foal to Mannhattan due in a few weeks and I can't wait. She took first try, and she's a maiden mare, and Mannhattan is just impressive (check out the videos from his 100 day test on there and what not).

You're very welcome.

I was a very well-informed 16 year old (I think? 15? 17? 18?) horse breeder :P
