ALL stallions are now on a First Come First Served basis here at The Grey Stable this year. The only stipulations are 3 mares from any one stable per stallion and only 20 spots are available per stallion. All stud fees have been REDUCED. Formal Occaision and Belanso are $5000. Spock is at $15,000. Highland Magic is at $30,000. No multiple mare discounts but I will reduce the fee to 50% for newbie stables. If you have agreements with me that I may have forgotten, please PM me early.
Can I please get the following slots to [color=blue]Spock:-
Mar 3:- [color=red]Decisive Victory §, 15yo by Meadow Victory (S) out of Pretty Awesome (B). She already has a 2yo colt by Spock, No-Win Scenario, who is due to start racing this year. She is due around Feb 5th, so should be ready by Mar 31st at the latest.
June 1:- [color=red]Choose to Forget, 7yo by Cross Roads (S) out of Forgotten Promise (B). She is due around May 1st, so should be ready by June 15th at the latest.
August 1:- [color=red]The Orca Spirit, 7yo Created mare. She already has a 2yo filly by Spock, The Voyage Home, who is due to start racing this year. She is due around July 1st, so should be ready by Aug 15th at the latest.
Can I please add one more to the list for [color=blue]Spock:-
[color=red]Scottish Time, a 5yo by Highland Laird out of Fog of Time. She is due around Mar 4th so, if I could get an April 2 slot for her, that would be great.
I know that this puts me over the 3 mares per stallion per Stable so you can take out the booking for [color=red]Decisive Victory.
NOT to put anyones nose out of joint here and I do appreciate all the business BUT… This is the reason for the “First Come First Served” this year… I simply do not have the time to do all the booking and juggling that is required. I barely have time to come on and run horses in races and do this checking as it is. I am sure that when your mare has the foal she is carrying that there will be a spot available for the stallion of your choosing…
No problem. Does that mean that when we are ready to breed our mares, if the particular slot we want is available we are to just go ahead and carry out the breeding without confirming it with you first?
