I've re-read the Herald about three times already.. and I really like that mag. :) Has a really good feel to it. > Carol really does a fine job of marketing too.

I think I'd tend in his direction since he looks more of a saddle horse with refinement.. although I saw the picture of one of his sons in the Herald and I'd say he doesn't throw himself. :/ That's a feature you look for in a stud.
