2011 Breeding Plans?

How great that this thread has managed to get you in contact with your old mare again; that's a turn up for the book!
It's always lovely to hear from old breeders and owners alike so you're definitely not out of place by posting on here and I'm sure Mugsgame will keep you informed of her from now on; she'll probably have loads of questions for you too. :)

I know - huge but very welcome surprise!! Oakwood - have PM'd you! And yes, lots of photos and some questions too! She is extremely well, I love her to bits and am very excited about the future with this mare! It will be good to keep in touch - how brilliant that a humble forum can reconnect people with their stock across so many miles and a decade in between!! I am in fact off to see 2011 stallions from tomorrow, so all very exciting!

Thank you so much for responding and updating me! I'm very excited to hear that Aloma is doing well and will be interested to see who you choose to breed her to this year. I am only expecting two foals this year but one of my Thoroughbred mares is in foal to a Palomino thoroughbred stallion so of course we are hoping for a Palomino foal. My other mare is bred to a Warmblood stallion and will foal late in the spring. It's amazing that I found my mare that I sold so long ago on the other side of the world!
 
im not putting my mare in foal this yer but her yearling will be shown in hand in the SHGB classes although im not sure if you would call him hunter or sports horse?

A client is thinking of putting two of her mares in foal, we are possibly getting a stallion on lease in which case she will use him on definately one of the mares if not she is not sure who she is wanting to use yet,

she is very much into coloureds, she has one ver big mre who apparently is by the same sire as milton, before my time so no idea what he was called, but she is huge and oldfashioned looking now although a very smart mare, i was trying to get her to use Uptons Deli Circus cause he is a lovely short small compact little horse, and i think would add some quality and make her a more useful type for most riders

the other mare is out of a ricardo Z mare by a coloured Grade A nice looking mare particulalry for this stallions stock, but lacks a bit in the movement department, the owner wants to maybe use a dressage stallion but personally with the jumping bloodlines in the mare, then i would try find a really elegant and good mover that is out jumping or eventing, espeiclly as primarily this lady likes to jump

im going to the hartpury stallion parade anywy so may see something there
 
I hope someone out there can help me. I purchase an Oldenburg mare with pink papers, to breed to my TB stallion, reg with the Jockey Club. He is 17H and looks like a warmblood himself. He is not sound anymore but has beautiful and big babies. My question is how would you register a foal out of the mare with these two combinations?

Well after yesterday, no further forward, what a choice. Though may have this taken if we are a winning bid!! Liked Franklyn Sugar though just a tad concerned whether he has enough front for the mare in question. He has the temperment, the fact he is my fav colour is a bonus, I would have liked more elevation, so there are doubts. I had already put in a bid when we saw Legrande & my daughter fell in love for the 2nd time that morning. Now he does have the front & movement so is probably a much better match. I have spent all winter trying to narrow down the selection only to be put back to square one, almost. I also love Cendy & think he has to still be up there. When I visted him Criag also had Primitive Star, who he was riding & I was reminded what a gent he is & he most def has a front on him! Down side, I want no chance of a grey, I dont want to spend more time trying to keep them clean then I do riding.
 
I'm not sure what is planned for my little mare this year! She is currently carrying
Tam's other baby, and at this time I don't know if her loaner intends on keeping her. There have been a few stallions discussed for her namely Legrande, Wolkenderry and Don VHP Z but nothing set in stone due to an uncertain year ahead. But I am looking forward to meeting the little one that she is carrying come June time
 
Short lists include: Keady Star, Zilando, Chaos, Asterix EZ, Air Jordan, Con Chello and Carrico. For two mares. One By Ramiro Z and the other by Matinee.
 
So far my plans are to ride my horse who actually was no suppose to ever been ridable again. She fractured something in near her partner at the beginning of 2009 and we retired her to be a broodmare. Since then we foaled a beautiful little colt by Westporte and he scores a stunning 8.4 at Oldenburg inspection. The only reason we decided to put her back to work was because sadly on December 16th 2010 we had to put down my riding horse :(. Being out of options and pretty much out of money from vet bills and such by some miracle my mare became sound again. I would love to have more foals from her but money is a big issue. Stud fees are expensive! I have my eye on the stallion 'Redwine' which is why I entered the "Season of Excellence" win a breeding contest through 'The Horse Coupon Book'.

I've been thinking about using Wavavoom on my 14HH Perlino mare, the urge is getting stronger by the minute.... what do you think?
 
So far it looks like 2012 will be a bumper crop of stunning babies. Who said that British Breeders are producing inferior foals!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have almost decided on mine for 2011

Sandrina (Sandro Z) to Don VHP Z

Brenta 3 (International endurance mare) to Tobago (need to speak to Kate!!!!)
Kazachka (as above)
Pedruga (International endurance mare - as above)

All the others will be put to Legrande

Although Claire does want one to either Balloon or Landpirol, just have to decide which!!!
 
I have no idea, I have more stallions on my list than I have mares lol, will have a good sit down and think over Xmas and make my mind up which are the best matches :)

I am however hugely looking forward to my 2 Johnson, 1 Painted Black, 1 Landtanzer and 1 Treliver Decanter foals all due in May :D I also may have 2 new mares arriving at the weekend, already infoal for 2011 too *whistles innocently*

Ooooo please please post pictures of your Johnson foals when they are born. Im backing my rising 3yr old Johnson gelding starting in April time, he is a total dream and the easiest most laid back horse ive had. He also has an amazing natural loose movement :)
 
We have a few finalised I think:
Ballyshan Lady(Cavalier Royale) to Numero Uno.
Ballyshan Supreme(Cobra X Fastness) to Calido.
Ballyshan Belle(Fastness X Persian Bold) to Balou Du Rouet.
Ballyshan Cleopatra(Cobra X VDL Arkansas) to Verdi/Canturano.
Loch View Lass(Animo X Cabby) to VDL Arkansas.
Ballyshan Claudia(Lux Z X Diamond Lad) to Canturano.
Ballyshan Luximportant(Lux Z X Diamond Lad) to Peter Pan.
Ballyshan Diva(Ricardo Z X Carnival Night) to Lux Z/Russel.
Ballyshan Las Vegas(VDL Arkansas X Cavalier Royale) to Mermus R.
 
For eventers, have a look at King Cotton Gold. Fabulous breeding and a stunning little horse. I have been swaying about putting my mare in foal and think I will take the plunge.
Great breeding and temperament and I just think he is drop dead gorgeous. A proper honest Irish horse, like people used to breed!
Wish me luck....
 
OK...plans made:

Religiously x Copper Gamble x Fine Blade to Sempers Spirit
Balougran Z x Manhattan x Grannus to Groomsbidge May I (going to SJer next year but sticking to TB as first foal)
Lupicor x Furore x Topas to El Thuder
 
Have hummed and hahhed and wobbled around, but final decision is that Jasmine (Jumbo/Rock King/Ben Faerie) will go to Twemlows to be ET'd to Mill Law - hopefully twice........?

Here she is as a foal when she gained an Elite premium.

WallaceJasmine1Dec09.jpg


And here as a yearling - Higher First Premium.

Fingers well and truly crossed!
 
Plans have changed. And changed again. After that, they changed some more. Now they changed one final time!

Pinicale (Duca Di Busted X Laughton's Flight X Aristocracy) is going to Aldatus Z
Esker Melody (Musical Pursuit X Corran Ginger X Cornamona) is going to Lancelot
Starlet Vision (Classic Vision X Duca Di Busted X Laughton's Flight) will either go to Watermill Swatch or go back to Sirillo. I'm also toying with the idea of buying semen in for Power Blade. Mighty Magic is also in the back of my mind!!!

I've also been given a lovely mare called Mullabawn to breed. Her breeding is Horos X Flagmount Diamond X Sky Boy. She goes to OBOS Quality 004

I'm not breeding Kinard Jasmine. (Ojasper X Flagmount King X Euphenism) She's in foal with a colt to the now deceased Vechta. I don't have the time to deal with yearly recurring placentitus so she finds herself up for sale. Pity though. I'm extremely fond of her. She has an incredible trot

My girlfriend is breeding her mare Eskerhills Lexis (Puissance X Furisto X Great Hussar) to Pacino I believe. That'll be a superstar right there!!!

So ... roll on the constant mind changes of 2012!
 
jasmine(x summer at saratoga) to ringfort cruise
frenchy(x apache dadriers) to jaguar mail
big mare(x hermes de reve) to road to happiness
However after listening to Lt o Gorman at Parklands Equine Conference maybe I should save my money as my mares dont tick all the boxes.
 
Saddly the 1st cycle has not gone well, fingers crossed the next sample is better quality or that is my plans for a 2012 foal out the window. I said I would only go for 2 cycle attempts as it just gets too expensive. It is just so much cheaper to buy what you want then to gamble with breeding. Anyway fingers crossed, she is due about the 8th/9th April.
 
Sorry to hear that Magic, always a blow when that happens; fingers crossed for either better quality or for her to be firing on all cylinders next time. I don't think this changeable weather is helping too much either hence why Bea will only be going to stud in a fortnight so that hopefully, things have warmed up and she's ready to go for her Tobago fling.
 
Ok ... ... ... ... So I've meditated on it, slept on it, pondered long and hard, I did some soul searching, and finally I've settled on a stallion for my Classic Vision mare.

I'm using Cougar on her. He's Cruising X Bahrain X Middle Temple.

All mares decided on! Let the foals start arriving!!!
 
well im over excited i am putting my fantastic dales mare to woodlander santana a 16hh black warmblood with donnerhall, sandro hit and sir donnerhall in his blood line :D

this foal is being bred purely for me i wonder what will come out my vet and i think
* a very flashy cob
* a small hunter/ riding club horse
* a very fuzzy warmblood

fingers crossed she takes
 
Yesterday went to plan, no probs & vet will be disapointed if there is no pregnancy in 16 days time! So everything is crossed & I hope it makes up for the fact she had to spend her 13th birthday with a vets arm up her behind!
 
My latest change of mind, Volatis Casiphia I think will now go to Furst Romancier. He is the most impressive looking horse, delightful temperament and he really suits lighter framed and smaller mares. And the F sire line works really well with casi's mother line. All in all plenty of positives and as she arrives at the stud tomorrow its about time I made a decision
 
Firstly, hoping this years foals arrive ok....

they are:-
San Fleurina (Sandro Bedo x Fittipaldi) - due in May to Wolkenderry - then will go to Stravinsky xx
Donna Negra (De Noir x Heraldik) - due end April to Chequille Z - then will go to Wolkenderry
