Yes indeed
I think he's rather nice. Not as smexy as Cassano, but when combined with PF I think you're right and we could get something a bit special... assuming of course foalie doesn't inherit each one's bad bits...

If YOU like him, go with it...after all I presume you are intending to breed the foal for yourself?
If you aren't sure, it's always a good idea to ask an expert Stud Manager or the like (show them a photo of your mare, obviously as it's the compatibility in type and conformation that matters).

The stallion's owner approached me. He's always liked PF and thinks they would make lovely babies
I'd like to keep the foal if a filly, and sell if a colt.. but you know what they say about the best laid plans...

Nice, but wouldnt want to breed with him, he jst isnt "special" enough imo. But good looking horse, just too many "not quite right" things....

Ah, now she looks much nicer than the grey stallion, but they don't look that good a match (to me).
I'm sure you can find something more handsome...or did you really hope for a grey foal?

Opinions are like bum holes, everyone has one.
He has got big feet, is very short in the pasterns does he move well? Also short in the neck.
He has a lot of bone though so would be nice with a TB. But I think the other one you showed is more quality and you are being dazzled by the colour. I think if he was bay he would look very common.

although i dont think hes 'stunning' hes a nice looking horse and i think would work well with PF, he would bring good point to the mix and so would she.

I'd go with the bay for PF - not the grey
antifaz has a disadvantage as he's got so much white on him - as someone said above about the grey - if he was bay he'd look common - in a similar way if AF had a normal blaze and not such a white face he'd be more 'easy on the eye'

I think he hasn't got the nicest head ever, but think with PF you would get a pretty good foal

Exaclty what I was thinking, if you hadn't said it was a hann I would have thought it was about 14h.
Nevermind what it looks like, has it actually done anything or had some nice foals?

Like they grey. Normally like chestnuts but wouldn't look twice at that one. Pretty mare though.

He is quite a nice looking horse.....however I think he would be an absolutely perfect match for PF - I think they would both compliment one another beautifully.

Is he stood on uneven ground in front? If so it's making the hoof pastern axis look broken. Otherwise he looks very nicely put together so I think it's just the pic, lovely.

Nope. He is jumping, but I've not seen him compete. He's only 4! Very well bred and quite cheap

I love this boy! probably cos i love connies! He is def my kind of horse, a dream one to have,not sure he'd have enough presence to be put to my mare though if i was you,he could bulk out the foal as your mare is quite fine. I think he has a kind look about him which is nice,i love greys so i'm biased.

I thought he looked more like an Irish Draught, so he gets my vote!!

It's ok.
Don't like it's legs, and it has hideous feet. And I certainly don't think it has enough class for your beautiful mare......

You know Amy I've been SO disappointed with the quality of stallions available here. AND prices are ridiculous (considering how much lower incomes are here than in the rest of the world) Everyone seems to be blinded by pedigree first, then performance and hardly any thought appears to go into conformation... Also, mares are barely more than incubators; I've seen some very ordinary mares that have been put to expensive stallions
