Patagonia's Santo

Meet Patagonia's SANTO, our elegant medium silver grey macho. We searched long and thoughtfully for the right sire for our grey-line dams. Santo's handsome stature caught our eye immediately, but it was his fine fiber and the sustained low microns of his dam and sire that finalized our choice.

Santo has full coverage of cloud-soft fiber, straight conformation, and a sweet disposition. But don't be mistaken, he knows he's a sire
and stands his ground with the other machos. He settled our lovely grey maiden, Aubinita, on his first time out! He's quite a crooner too.

Micron data:

2001 at 18 months 20.9/3.6/17.2/1.7
2002 at 3 years--22.6/4.7/20.8/5.1
Sire El Gaucho's micron at 3.5 years was under 20 microns!
