    >> Shamrock - (nasty & nippy - the worst of both species) $850 to $900
    >> 2nd generation of any of the above - not worth a dime more
    >> Harlequin (better temperment then the 3 above) $1,000
    >> Catalina - $1,000 to $1,200

    >> Camelot (red) $1,000 to $1,200
    >> Camelot (orange) $1,500
