Mickey Taylor managed the stallion career of the son of Bold Reasoning at the time of his death on May 7.The dispersal, expected to occur over a two-year period, will include mares, yearlings, foals, and horses of racing age and is being handled by Eaton Sales. Some of the horses are owned in conjunction with longtime partner Albert Finney.
