There are 2 stallions and a mare in this field??

My stallion would not allow another stallion on our property never mind in the same field! But I guess they aren't all the same.

Stallions, mares and geldings all in together do not usually work. No I wouldn't do it.

That isn't a good idea as the stallion might turn very territorial and attack your gelding. It is sometimes possible to graze a quiet stallion with geldings but they do have funny days when for no apparent reason they turn on them and bite..our old gelding ended up with 60 bites after his former "friend" turned on him despite being out together for months.
I have seen our stallion open a horse up from shoulder to bum like a tin opener with his teeth..then knock the gelding to the floor and attack again. Don't risk it is my advice (said stallion had jumped his gate, then a metal 5 foot gate, then an electric topped 4' 6" post and rail to get at the gelding)
