Salutation's Sunflower   

White, 842688, Full Peruvian

We should have Sunny listed in our foundation herd since her first cria was born without a hitch and because she is so identical to her mother Salutation.

Hemingway is known worldwide and Bueno has produced over 100 winning offspring to date, and we think Bravado is one of his best. We are certain that Bravado will go on to sire as many champions as his father, and one of them could belong to you! His crias have fantastic fleeces! But don't take our word for it, come and see for yourself. If his offspring continued to come out this good it won't be long before Bravado's stud fee i
