I was there and I think he is going to make some good show barrows. But one thing they talked about a lot was what a great eater he is maybe why he has a deep center of body

Agree with the above. Diamond was impressive and should make cool barrows. Ran uphill from where I sat. Good pedigree also.

They did walk Silverado out. He is young. Good bone, level and good muscle mass for a Landrace. I must not have been the only one to like him, called last week at 12:01 pm to order overrun and he was sold out.
