I was hoping someone here has some information on my 8 year old mare Werza (Goodtimes x Ahorn x Caletto II), in particular her breeding history. I brought her as a broodmare earlier this year and was informed that her previous foals have been very nice. But so far I have checked NED, Sports Horse Database, All breed Pedigree database and Horse Telex.nl but can't find her progeny listed.

Her vaccination record shows her in the Netherlands up to 2006 (no entries after 2006) and I know Stal Verhoeven sold her in 2007 but that's all I know.

I had her inseminated earlier this month and she twined but my vet has had a tricky time pinching one! I would like to know if she has a history of twinning or if I am just having a bad year!! However any information anyone can give me would be most appreciated.

Thank you in advance!
 
that would be me!!! but i only had her 4 weeks and i past on any info i recieved. im still waiting for pics from the previous owner myself from all the mares i bought from them.
 
one of the problems of the databases is they are reliant upon people adding their own listings. I know a few horses who don't have their offspring listed on sport horse database for example.

Have you contacted Stal Verhoeven? They may have records of any foals born there. It is odd the UK born foals aren't listed though as I know the studbook I registered my foals with entered them on a database (which sadly ended up with 2 listings for the same horses, as so did I!)....I know when I have bought a broodmare I have wanted to see foal listings and proof of pregnancies in advance
 
as an aside her half brother, Royal Geneve, was owned by Caroline and Gordon Ironside (Anastasia) on here - you never know, Caroline may know something about your mare's history too - she is a font of all knowledge! lol
 
Thank you everyone for your help!

I have now established that she has no stock registered in the UK so will start researching her history prior to coming to the UK in 2007. I will email Stal Verhoeven and KWPN for any information they have on her.

Thanks LynneB, I saw pictures of Royal Geneve when researching her pedigree - if her foals look as good as his offspring I'll be very happy! She is having a 25 day scan on Tuesday to check that she still has an embryo (and only one) and all is well!
 
if she came to the UK in 2007 and has no foals here, was she brought over in late 2007 and had possibly weaned one in 2007 I wonder? as even if they put her in foal at 2 her first foal would have been born in 2006 - if she came early 2007 and no foals here that means she would only have had 1 foal at most previously?
 
I presumed that if she had a foal in the Netherlands she would only have had the 1, covered 2006 to foal 2007, she is a big girl and doubt she would have been mature enough to cover as a 2 year old.

Also, I now know she had a foal in the UK but it died before it was registered and also covered in 2010 but not in foal when she was sold to me earlier this year. Fingers crossed I have more luck with her!
 
what a shame about her foal. Sadly not being mature enough at 2 doesn't stop them being put in foal...I hope you find them though would be good to get an update.
