Quite honestly I would not breed from such a mare full stop, rather buy a nice well bred eventing youngster or find a mare without lameness soundness issues or even lease one. Why oh why do the Brits feel that if a mare has no other purpose in life due to soundnes issues it needs to have a "job" in life as a broodmare..... This weeks Horse & Hound discusses what makes a good broodmare and the possibility of ET - so what future does this "next foal" have? Will it inherit the flat feet and likelyhood of bone cysts from its dam? The chances are most probably... Genetically hereditable traits are passed on so why bother spending all that money taking a big risk and adding yet another possibly unsound horse to add to the already thousands.
