Can anyone recommend a good stallion

[princess_s]

Friend has agreed I can loan her retired mare to try to breed my dream dressage horse from. Mare is TB/Warmblood and got to medium level in her younger days. Need to start thinking about a good match for her. Could use TB I have used before, as prob wud be good match but am put off by the other two I have bred from him (both bonkers!) but that is really fault of my crazy mare - see breeding disasters posts of last two days!
Sorry for long post!!!!!!!!!

marleen has a really nice grand prix stallion. nicest moving horse i have ever seen, and is inexpensive.

 

[princess_s]

Which of her stallions is the one you like or both!!

 

[airedale]

or look at Decanter at www.treliverstud.co.uk

He is fantastic and I've got the most wonderful foal from him

He was £100 cheaper last year when I used him but he's proving very popular.

ive only seen the one, the other one has only been there a few months - i guess its the one that all the foals are by!

 

[princess_s]

Thanks will look into it. Am getting desperate for a normal horse now that is not crazy

How about Nibeley Union Jack - probably the best mover and naturally "off" the ground horse I've ever seen.

Isn't he just - I want to send B to him next year - him or a homozygous coloured that is comparable to Jack!!

Have a look at the Cleveland Bay website.

Part bred CB's are great at dressage!!!

Thanks everyone, you've come up with some fantastic ones - got a dilemma already about what to choose!!!! Anymore suggestions will also be gratefully received.

I know nothing about him but he always catches my eye in adverts, Medoc one of the BSH/BWB reg stallions. He is on their site and looks wonderful..

 

[princess_s]

Its funny you should say that as their is a lady at my yard who has a lovely youngster by Medoc and boasts about him whenever she has an opportunity!! She will be showjumping her young one so didn't really think about Medoc as a possibility till now.

Mooiman standing at www.holdenfolddressage.com is lovely, with the MOST trainable temperament and off the floor paces.

I have covered my near TB mare with him and those two traits had to be top of my list.

What is the temperament of the Medoc youngster like? Or is he too young to tell the trainability yet? It's just that I've known four and only one was what you'd describe as an amateur's ride. They were out of four different mares. I wouldn't want to cast aspertions on Medoc, he himself has a lovely temperament but I would want to meet more of his stock personally.

 

[princess_s]

The medoc youngster at my yard is four and he is training well at the moment, he is talented and seems willing to learn. However, I have seen him being naughty to ride on a good few occasions, but his owner isn't experienced with youngsters and has done everything with him herself so its hard to tell whether it is down to her inexperience.
