Autumn Day's Zion

Every once in a while you find a “magic” sire x dam cross that consistently gives you outstanding results. Such is the case with the pairing that produced Silver Legacy. He is the 5th of 6 excellent cria out of this cross, 4 of whom we are retaining which is the only reason we are willing to let him go. His full siblings included 8X champion Silver Sensation (dam of A Paca Fun’s Ridiculous) 5 X Champion Aurora (another of our stellar production dams), and champion male I Am Legend who we have retained as a herdsire. Silver Legacy is a typey full patterned tuxedo silver gray that checks off every box in the breeder’s want list. He is upright and correct, with good coverage and bone. His fleece is uniform silver gray (no spots) with good fineness, and has 3-dimentional crimp and density. Combining the Rincon Cloud and Silver Legend lines, Silver Legacy comes from powerful genetics, but is conveniently unrelated to many of the other top gray lines in the country. This makes him a good pick for breeders looking to add their first gray male, or established programs looking to diversify their genetics. Silver Legacy has been a main member of our show string and has done well in shows, but we suspect the best is yet to come, as historically his line really blossoms starting at age 2. We look forward to seeing what this boy can do both continuing in the show ring and as he starts his breeding career.
