Poster Boy Retires ?

I see Poster Boy has been retired. Really unlucky that the circumstances dictated it.

You may have noticed the ? in the title as they are keeping the door open

Hi Katie. We own Poster Boy and certainly some of the Lauriston mares will go to him. Established sires command the quality mares and young sires find it difficult until their progeny hit the racetrack. PB will serve some Group 1 winning mares and those that have left Group 1 winners in the Lauriston broodmare band in an effort to give him a good start. Some will be Art Major mares giving the foals a 3x3 reverse sex cross to Artsplace.I expect PB to get some AM mares as this has been a successful cross. Without looking at the full pedigree of your mare , a Dream Away mare provides the 3x3 Reverse sex cross to Artsplace. Good luck with her whichever sire you go to.

A good way to do it for sure and I'm glad he gets that opportunity! There are quite a few small sires that I wish would get a few really really good broodmares to give them a chance to prove themselves otherwise small sires become their own self fulfilling prophecy .

My old girl is by Dream Away out of an In The Pocket mare. Ill look into PB more
