I have a very well bred mare, sj lines, but also well connected with dressage horses. Whilst I got here on the cheap, she really is the horse of a life time. Her only faults are she's' knocking on a bit age wise, and she has a few bad habits she's taught herself when some numpties owned her.
I've been eying up stallions for a while for her, and I'm pretty sure that Ramiro b would be the perfect husband for her, and if all went to plan, the foal would be a pretty good one (for me to keep for myself).
So I've thought... pros... I'd get an exceptionally well bred horse that I'd probably never be able to afford in real life, that should be capable of doing everything I could want in a horsey competition career.
Downsides, I could kill my mare. It would take three years of forking out livery before I could do anything with foal. Would mean I'd have to have another year off riding my mare (already had six months of not riding her due to work)
