Golden Oldies?

[AGN76]

Just flushed a farm flask out to see what had gone swimming over the years. Other than the obligatory Shottle straw, these came out that I've never heard of -
Lord Lilly
Sexed Arrowhead
Moet Prophet
Townson Lindy

Any good?

Lindy and lord lily are worth keeping. Even as a outcross for the pedigree lot later on. They should keep just look at some of the old bulls still being kept for friesians
