no offer....yet to see any one improve on MDK.....here we have a horse with pure natural ability and not bred by the best nor fed the best....has no grass training track, no walkers, nor treadmills this horse has more than a ticket to the rest of the season's juvinile futurities the owner should sell half and go on a ride of his life as this horse can take people places that you could not imagine....(tu)

Always rated King of Kings as an above average sire and have been ridiculed for it....they will start to fire when mated correctly....

Soft Falling Rain something very special ... been saying that since his first win... would have dead heated with Welwitschia if the clock is to be believed.

Muhti,I have a credit at Clinton Binda's yard and 18-24 months ago I put the condition on that my next must be a King of Kings!
Do I think KoK is the next Jetmaster or Fort Wood.............no ,but I stated way back then that I believe it to be the best chance of fluking a star at a budget price..........still waiting for mine.......lol

KoK not a super sire....besides you need a good band of dams and they not finding him.....what is your dam...... as Kok imo is relitively easy to read.....there will be some good hits but plenty misses....

Muhti,there are a couple of pretty good progeny internationally and my mate Rob Knuppe,helps me by looking for similar female line match ups locally(there are common denominators)...........they are not abundent but will be one or two I think(or hope)

I have been told that Lonsome Dove is better that SFR even at this stage of it's career.

.....Rob Knuppe knows (t)his stuff and I really rate him....Kok got a few Gr1 and Gr2 winners in his 1st Aus crop namely Kings Chapel, Ike's Dream and Redwoldt and is one of the better sons of Sadlers Wells to find his way to SA....not a Fort Wood but way better than many others.....(tu)

Agra , is this tongue in cheek ? I prefer to see what they do on the track, not on the galloping course
