I can't decide between these two stallions

[JANANI]

I can't choose between these two stallions Masuernfurst who is a Trakehner and Jupiter du Thot who is a selle Francais. They will be covering an irish draft type mare for and I am wanting to breed a horse who can compete at dressage and showjumping. see web page . Who would you choose?

Go look at my photos in the gallery - couple of much nicer stallions there!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[JANANI]

Any nice CB's in Ireland. That will make my choice even harder

Oooh, you've got some lovely stallions standing in Ireland - Cavalier 2 For Joy and Vechta, for instance, and a coloured TB, I Was Framed, standing at Drumhowan Stud, Co. Monaghan .... then there's Puissance, seems popular as an eventing sire at the moment ... Master Imp .... I could go on, but sorry, probably the last thing that you need is loads more choices!!!

Go onto www.hengststation-boeckmann.de and look at Quarteline, he is a fantastic dual purpose stallion with exceptional bloodlines for use on this type of horse, he also has a great temperment and is cheap!!

You've got Lord Calando semen in Ireland already (if that's where you are). You'll know his best son as Lux Z and he's the dam sire of Numero Uno. What few notice, is that he is the uterine brother of Carthago Z, one of the great modern sires. Try to use proven stallions.

He gives movement, scope and looks and at 450€ per dose, you're getting something far superior.

Here's his link http://www.frenchstallions.org/french_stallion_detail.php?stallion=2007017

Of the two stallions you have posted about (as I see no one has actually answered that question) I prefer the Trakehner. I feel the Selle Francais is lacking freedom through the shoulder and I think you'd get something a little plain using him on an Irish draft mare.
One niggle though, mausernfurst is not an Elite stallion. The TBF is still finalising the criteria for awarding Elite status and no awards have been made yet. I do hate when websites are inaccurate

 

[Foxfolly]

I prefered the Trakehner too! Same reasons as Volatis!

Who is riding Jupiter round Necarne in that vid?

Looks like he was ridden very badly

 

[JANANI]

Going by the colours it looks like one of the crawford brothers. I know Stuart rode Maseurfurst at EI.

Have you looked at Kasparow or Axis? Kasparow worked at Intermediare before becoming an advanced eventer. Axis is by Sixtus and is producing eventers showjumpers and dressage horses.

I would choose Masurenfuerst. He is a lovely type and most importantly also has a lovely temperament. I wanted to use him on my mare but she is too small (or he is too big)
