    Any Thoughts on AMOUR G?

    I saw him at the BWBS grading at Hartpury which was a few years ago now, and when he came in the arena for the loose jumping he just had that wow factor, he is now proving himself and I would happily breed something to him if I had the right mare.

    Calmer for a stressy horse?

    I am another equifeast fan, my boy is on winning edge silver, I don't need to worry about feeding anything else like joint supplement as its all in it.

    Suitable event sire for "Miners Lamp" mare?

    Mr Darco has gone very nicely over a pure TB mare, and also a nearly full TB mare with Java Tiger lines. We are also very pleased with our 2 colts out of a TB/KWPN mare. He's very much SJ bred but is Eventing himself and had a good first season last year earning 32 FP's. Very careful jumper, and...
