    OK. It is my turn to turn to the sage wisdom of the board and ask should I or shouldn't I?

    Have recently been given the chance to breed a Panorama mare, 14 yo Pepperama. She is a nice big mare without being huge, though her daughter Playing For Fun by Trump Casino would rank as an enormous mare. My thoughts are that Parsons Den would be a good choice as he fits the budget and is reasonably close to home.

    So give us your thoughts, it would be appreciated.

    I would consider JR MINT as he is located at the same stud and is out of the Golden Miss family as is Panorama. This may be the better option in my humble opinion. Best of luck.

    [VVV] G'day Phil. Not trying to put you off going Parsons Den...he has done a pretty good job IMO, we bred one from a mare purchased in foal to him and it went well, has won his last 2 in WA in fine style. The only thing I'd caution on is that his stock tend to toe out a bit in front and although they usually don't interfer as much as their front end builds would suggest they will, if at all...if your mare toes out as well I'd proceed with a bit of caution. You'd swear the colt we bred would have cracked his knees pretty good but he didn't. He just gives one a light brush. His dam was very front end correct. I like the Dragon's Lair/Dragon Again line, I think they're honest horses, they give you what they've got.
