Breeding advice
FRIDAY inherited real scope and a lot of blood from his genetics. Rather elegant, he displays good joints and powerful hindquarters, but also great carefulness and very good attitude. He is well suited for stylish mares lacking strength and size.
The words of Bosty:
"FRIDAY combines his sire’s power and bravery with his dam’s energy and carefulness !"
Offspring
With his first significant generation born in 2022, his offspring are not in age to compete yet.
