filled in for both my resident boys, any further I can help with I own Little Arabians, just google me :)

depends what is in the genes... some stayer type TB would probably, some Arabs would too. I personally wouldn't risk it, but that's just me.... one cheese wire foal was Arab on Arab.... most the time things go fine, but every now and again it doesn't, and if your not willing to take that risk...

if sire of your mare is 16.2 I personally wouldn't do it, had you asked me 2 years ago, before I saved that mare, I would as the others have insisted the foal NEVER gets bigger then the mares uterus allows, but the uterus is not the problem as its very flexible, the problem is the mares pelvic...

well its all theory really as nobody has been able to/ ever will be able to make a qualified experiment.... the same horse cant grow up as a colt and a gelding at the same time ;) im a firm believer if the horse is not to be a future stallion cut it as soon as possible.

I would advise to buy the foal that ticks your boxes. I've been breeding for years firstly TB, then a few showjumpers, and in 2007 I changed for good to Polish Arabs... breeding is a gamble, you can (like e and others) spend months or even years studying generation back, but a horse has over 200...
