I was just wondering if anyone could recommend any TB stallions of the traditional HIS stamp?
I know about the obvious ones like Kings Composer, Weld, Primo Pageant etc, but just wondered about any younger ones that I might not have looked at, they seem to be becoming harder to find and we have lost quite a few of the older ones (likes Lord David S, Roviris and Andes

Any thoughts much appreciated.

He's very different from Weld (who stands at the same stud). They also have No Submission whose off spring are just stunnnig.

Would be worth you ringing them up and going for a visit. They are fantastic.
 
Thanks
No Submission is to small. I do like POD and might consider him, not quite sure on Weld there is something I don't like but can't quite put my finger on it.
Rang up to book a mare into Lord David S the day after he died(sods law), sent same mare to Roviris she took and then lost it then he died, and then have got a new mare this year that I was thinking about Andes now he has died!!!(lots of sods law or I am bad luck for stallion owners)

Have had a look at Louela went and met all the stallions before LDS died and did quite like PP but not enough to use him. Have seen this morning that they have a new stallion on there books so am waiting for a pic to be uploaded then might go have a look.
 
Have a look at dairyhouse stud, they do a great deal on non TBs and i am thinking of using Victory Note - admittedly on a mare with great limb but he is a lovely pattern and great value. however if your mare is full TB he is probably really expensive! Bandmaster and Classic are great 'old boys' still going strong.
 
Thanks ed
Victory note is nice, however she is full TB and he is well out of my price range
I could be wrong but I'm sure I was told Bandmaster is retired now (please don't shoot me down I could be wrong)
Classic I have looked at before but as with Weld there is something that I don't like not sure what I just don't get a feeling for them.
Any younger stallions that i may not know of?
 
How about Hever Golf Ranger? A friend's ISH mare is in foal to him; he had a good race record, then won at Hickstead after retiring from the track. He has the most lovely temperament, and super conformation - not a big chap, though - think he stands about 15.3
 
Found him thanks RBM, He's quite nice looks a little small but might be worth a look.

CC I will have a read on sirens misile thanks.
 
Ahh that is a problem - he is well under £500 for non TB's. Bandmaster was certainly still covering last season - saw his owner at an equine fair in December - maybe something has changed since then.
 
CC Siren's Missile I have had a quick peep and he is definately on my list to visit.
Does anyone know of any stock by him or his sire, re temp, confo etc?
 
Will try and find them now, have been looking through the TB stallion guide for 2008/09/10 but the stud fee's are a bit high.
 
Looked into Revolution at the Futurity 2008, lots of youngsters by him at Arena UK that year.He'd had a big book of mares, but I wanted him for my Welsh D cross TB filly who is only 15.2. He's not very big, he's by Suave Dancer who was a very talented racehorse but didn't produce any sires of note, and was also like Revolution rather pretty and fine. The real thing I had against him, was the hype about him being advanced, when he only had 49 points and is now retired (as far as I know) from competition. His scores on BE weren't brilliant, and as I wanted to breed eventers he didn't tick my boxes. Incidentally, Sir Suave was in the same section as my filly and she got Elite and had higher marks than him. That surely shouldn't have happened if he was a serious stallion prospect. I remember him as being very full of himself, but he didn't go "WOW" for me, and I was far more impressed with San Amour who also was there at the same time albeit a year older.
 
Thanks CG I must say Revolution didn't blow me away from pics but they are all so different in the flesh.

MFH OMT will also be added to my visit list thanks

CC will take a look at that now, thank you
 
My 14.1hh filly also got a higher mark than Sir Suave. I remember him getting loose in the collecting ring. He didnt do it for me either, not that I disliked him, just not quite my type.
