I actually thinks that looks very similar to Sally's Groomsbridge May, (bar the colour)who is gorgeous and pure TB.

Tobougg also looks similar(body, not colour!) ?

ETS- Double Trigger looks a good match!! But he is known for being an absolute horror and tries to kill the grooms

(also £2,500 stud fee but he marked correctly to be a match which I felt was important

A friend was rather manoeuvred out of quite a lot of money when he used the brother, same stud so be wary.
 
OOPS sorry, got wrong number of points, BUT...if you want to make a "thing" about this....FACT,Revolution didn't get any points at Advanced or OI level, he WAS being heavily marketed at Arena UK, and I was keen to see if he'd do the job with my filly. Knowing his sire didn't produce successful sires, and having looked up his racing record as well, which was terrible, I decided he wasn't for me. Not wanting to dis the horse or his owners, but I have a stallion myself and expect to see a decent level of performance from any stallion. Hopefully Revolution's foals will live up to their Futurity marks.
 
Volatis, I wasn't at Richmond with anything! I saw Sir Suave at Arena UK when he was two and in the same catagory as my filly. I'm sure he improved from 2 to 3, but just didn't tick any boxes.
 
For everyones information:

Trifolio is still covering, both naturally and AI, with a small select number of mares each year. He lives at home at Nutwood Stud and I use Great Brockhamhurst Stud for collecting for AI customers. I do not advertise him, except within the SHG GB stallion book, because he has nothing to prove, and I waited many years to get him, and I want to keep him fit and well as long as possible.

He has had a relatively small number of mares over the years, as Carol looked after him, with much love and concern.

He has bred many fabulous horses, both winners in hand and under saddle, at top level. He has a number of horses eventing and some doing dressage at a reasonable level. He has bred horses ranging in size from 15hds through to 17hds, depending on the mare!
 
Ok Double Trigger isn't quite floating my boat. Welton Double Cracker son of Double Trigger isn't quite doing it either. But a slight change (not full TB I know) I quite like Welton Adonis, what do you think??
 
Hi Simsar,

Springfield Symphony is not quit a full TB but well worth a look, from his crop on the ground we have found that he adds height and quality, he will soon be back with Hannah Bate so if your in the area you can pop in and see him at Hannahs see him and have a chat about him!

Actually he is £1750 this year and his brother Double Eclipse who is actually proably a better sire has stood in Ireland for a number of years now.
Tuboog actually stands at East Burrow now
 
Hi Springs, I promise I will use you boy at some stage soon as we love him so much, as well as Kings Composer who we adore too. However we don't think either will suit this mare for what we want this time. x
 
My boy Weston Justice has 3 generations of HIS on dams side. They are Krisinsky, Hoarwithy and Royal Clipper. His father Criminal Law is a more refined HIS stamp but still stood up over the ground. You can tell I miss the traitional stamp and a lot of them moved better than a lot of warmbloods, I remember Hoarwithy giving me goosebums even as an old man.
 
I have two offspring by Revolution, he is very correct and has a fantastic temperament. The bloodlines in his pedigree were also very attractive to me for putting quality into my mare, and I believe he has achieved that, he obviously suits my mare. His son Sir Suave is also a very impressive animal, and a lot bigger than his sire, it is amazing how much he has changed from a 2 year old to a 3 year old. I am not sure the comments made about his behaviour are relevant when considering using either him of Revolution, because anyone who has youngsters and has not been shown up by them in public is very lucky. I actually handled him in the collecting ring at Bramham this year whilst another horse was loose and he was not bothered about the commotion and he is alot bigger than I am. It is the performance under saddle which will be the real test.
 
No offence was meant regarding Sir Suave. I was merely agreeing with cundlegreen that his behaviour at the previous years evaluation was replicated last year. Temprement is a very important factor to me when choosing a potential stallion for my mares. Yes they do sometimes show you up, usually at the most inapproiate time! The evaluators obviously thought he was worthy of the Elite premium. He is indeed a big impressive lad but he doesnt float my boat. We all like different things in a horse. Wouldnt do for us all to like the same sort would it!
 
I think you'll find Revolutions offsprings are already proving themselves, all youngsters have done well in hand and he had a very successful day at Richmond futurity, speaking of which, it was unfair to comment on Sir Suave at Richmond when you werent even there to see him! Revolution already has offspring eventing, one being a 7 year old which has already been well placed at first two intermediates. He is produced young horses who, at a young ages are being successful up to this level. We are not talking about breeding a racehorse so Revolutions race record is not relevant. He is an event stallion.
To be honest, the conversation is better left at this, I would have thought as you have your own stallion you would realise it is unfair to make the comments you have about someone elses, especially as you clearly dont know the stallion very well.
 
I was at Richmond. I saw his evaluation (as well as seeing him breaking loose in the collecting ring) and he WAS very good. He showed himself off very well and jumped extemely well. Im sure he WILL prove himself under saddle, I wasnt saying otherwise. To say that he isnt for me is NOT knocking him. As I said before, we all like different things in a horse.
 
i've come to this a bit late, but yes i have a One More Tiger filly.

she is a real chunky tb with a good deep girth and great limbs.
she isn't the most extravagant mover but her dam moved like a sewing machine so she was never going to have huge paces!
she has however got scope to burn over a fence, is brave as a lion and very clever at sorting her stride out over a fence.

she was with the 4**** eventer Rosie Thomas over summer 2009 who thought she was a fab little mare with scope to go quite far eventing.

millie can have a bit of a 'piggy' temperament sometimes however- she can be sharp and opinionated but whenever she has gone out competing she seems to leave the attitude at home and behaves like an angel.

her dam is an Inchinor/High Top mare so the temperament could have come from that side.

this is her as a 3yro winning a Midlands championship at her first show (shown 3 times in her life and champion each time)

and some proofs from one of her events

Just saw the post about Double Trigger, My novice event mare is by him and i have worked for a bit with Welton Double Cracker, and by coincidence another groom on the same yard had worked with Double Trigger.
I was told that DT was a handful, but WDC and my mare (Trelights) were both very sweet (WDC was stabled between 2 mares) but can have their moments!
Interestingly a very experienced racing person told me that as a general rule Double Trigger horses like soft ground (from racing form) and the same is definitely said for my mare.
I was also told point blank by a top NH trainer that Double Trigger would not have been allowed to cover a non TB mare, but as both WDC and my mare who is out of a Welton mare, I assume a deal of some sort was done?!
