can anyone tell me if Milky Way is still standing at centyfield. I have left 2 telephone messages and sent 3 emails but no one replies. Or does anyone know of any other quality cremellos at stud/ many thanks
thanks magic but ive tried all those and tried to become a member of the forum got an email saying someone would open my account by nothing ever happened tried to join twice.
Although he is not standing at Goshka anymore, he's at another stud in the UK (and stud fee is £300 I think). I went to see him in the flesh, lovely lad and very stunning. I was using him for 2 mares but 1 didn't get in-foal and then Tosca got injured so couldn't use him on the other one. Not too bothered as I then got to use Goshka Ringo for the same price
thankyou rollestone and claire. I have both of those stallions (vangellis and Tosca ) on my list although I didnt know where tosca was standing it was an old advert i had seen. This breeding lark is a mine field I am desperate not to let colour over ride conformation. Just out of interest I know someone else has done a poll but would you go for breeding over performance record as my mare is very well bred but hasnt been broken she has soley been a brood mare, so should i go for a stallion with some record? thanks

Most of the Cremello stallions do not have pedigrees which the "average" person will have heard of - you're unlikely to find one with Donnerhall, Rubenstein, Gribaldi etc up there in the first generation (for obvious reasons). Therefore, I personally would choose one with a good competition record.
Also - and I don't know what papers your mare has - I would look into foal registration options carefully. Some of them are only graded with "colour" organisations and so the paperwork that the foals will get may not be as credible as registrations with one of the larger organisations.
I've not looked into using any of these horses myself though, so don't quote me on the paperwork bit!
thankyou ashbank think im going to forget the colour for now .
horsenut thanks for that one. I was a big fan of moonshine vision when i used to show palominos.

She's a cremello, so there aren't that many options really - doesn't look overly Arab for PBA classes, can't do colour classes, wouldn't be competitive in youngstock classes.. It's difficult! She is also stunning though.
