| Dear Whit and Kathy: Bob and I wanted to reiterate in writing how pleased we are with the frozen semen you have collected and shipped to Austria and Australia for our stallion, Leaguers Grand Slam. We have a 100% success rate in both countries. Two mares were bred on one collection and shipment to Austria which was intended for only one mare. Four mares were bred from the multiple collection and single shipment to Australia. All of these mares were bred with one insemination.  The quality of his frozen semen adds to his already outstanding reputation as a stallion. Additionally, the mare owners are eqully pleased. This is extremely important to both sides of the breeding equationas we have the opportunity to breed more mares with the straws collected and the mare owner saves on vet costs with only one insemination charge. Needless to say, we will continue to work with you in 2004 to add additional straws for storage. A superior way for us to preserve his legacy. Sincerely, Bob and Susan Benz |
