The Futurity are trying to improve the standard of British breeding, it is a no-brainer that the rule should be stock by graded stallions only - this should have been the case from the day the Futurity started. Eventrider - does the fact that you have yet-to -be-presented stock by your...

Good enough English magic? Are you having a laugh? *temperament *don't *cheaply *achieve - i suggest you stop being such a bitch and go out and buy yourself some spell checking software.

Have you looked at Parco, he is now in the UK? Watch this video of him :-http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GmgRRfjK6bw

Lark - I think that your initial choice of Kannan would be the one you should consider more seriously. I know what you are trying to convey when you say "complications" - because i have read some of the outrageous comments on this forum about the owner. I have used the stallion in the past and...

Just been reading through all the old threads as i'm trying to decide what stallion to use on my mare. What does everyone think to Esteban? I think he'd be a match for the OP's mare (in theory, as being such an old post she will have made her choice) - he'd also be a very good match for my event...

If you are looking for a British stallion then i'd have thought it'd be worth taking a look at Parco (he stands in Reading). Google "Parco stallion" and you will find loads of pictures and information about him. He has loads of international children - infact if you added up all the...

Hi Damnation, have you looked at Rubicell? He would tick your boxes as a dressage-bred sire and is known for passing on the amazing ridabilty and calm temperament of Rubinstein - Rubicell went to the Europeans (as a stallion) with an 18 year old rider, which says a lot! One of his sons FBW...

Yes, could someone please explain to me how to upload photos on here? I am interested in your opinions on my mare - who i want to breed to an event stallion, i would like people's opinions on which event stallions would suit her.

Signs to look out for would be heat, swelling, puffiness in leg or joint, a strong pulse below the fetlock joint and lameness. Read this link:- http://www.athletic-animals.com/tendon.htm

She would be extremely lame if she had pulled both hind tendons! Could you post a picture please? I would bring her in if possible, cold hose and put some clay on them (it cools) - then wash it off after a few hours. Do her hooves have any heat in them? Is the swelling restricted to the fetlock?

Gorgeous foal Maesfen - love the purple belly too!!!

I can see where everyone is coming from but just to play devil's advocate, why, if the dogs are in good condition, should she not be allowed to keep them? I don't know the history of the case or the full story but she could have found the horses, being much larger animals become too difficult to...

beautiful - congratulations xx

I'm really disappointed, how frustrating for all the riders who have worked so hard towards gearing towards this weekend. I really feel for the trade stands that would have been counting on X amount of income from such a profitable event. Safety is the most important thing though and if the...
