HIS type stallions

[little_critter]

hunters improvement society, to improve the breeding of light horses, evolved into light horse breeding, then sport horse breeding gb, i still have the badge somewhere, green with a a rearing stallion, common sight at newmarket stallion show!

Ah that makes sense - my boy is registered with SHBGB.
So what qualities was Weld supposed to pass on that were good / bad?

a lot of the old stallions years back where judged on confo movement and the actual performance of progeny in the hunting field, competition areas, cause we all knew what riding the progeny was like and how they handled

Old thread but interesting to see some names crop up - the big eventer I just sold was by Mutazayid!!

Some of those names have gone mightily quiet.

Any idea what happened to Mutazayid?
Is he still around...would be 24 now
