"Craig Bandoroff's reputation for honesty and professionalism is well deserved. We heard about Craig six years ago and decided to do business with Denali. Few things in this world are better than advertised, but Craig, Holly, and their top notch staff excel and Denali should serve as a best practices model for the industry." 

- Guy and Diane Snowden, owners of ESCENA whose first foal sold at the Keenland July 2001 Select Yearling Sale for $3,700,000.
