Hey guys,
I see the above alot, it seems that alot of people far prefer geldings to mares. That's the general consensus at the yard I'm on too (Based on numbers of each).
What's the reason for this? What is so off putting about a mare vs a gelding?
I see mares to be more appealing, one of the reasons is that if she happens to be an absolutely cracking horse I have the option of taking a foal off her and preserving the blood line, with geldings, for the most part they are the end of their specific blood line.
I'm interested in your opinions and thoughts.
Thanks!
