Is my boy a Dutch warmblood?

When the stallion could be used as an example of poor conformation from his published stud card, had no performance record & no known breeding a public forum can "slate" him.

Sorry, but a stallion with terrible conformation and no competition record should not be contributing to the overpopulation in this industry. Simple as.
I understand that to you he is the dogs danglies and that can make you see him through rose tinted specs. But i'd like to see that pass a grading..
 
Hi OP. Your new boy, lovely though he is, is not a Warmblood. His sire is of unknown breeding and his dam is half-Welsh. No recognised Warmblood studbook would accept a horse of this breeding as a Warmblood. Part-bred papers possibly, if the WB part of the parentage was proven, and depending on the studbook, but no more than that. To continue to refer to him as a Warmblood is inaccurate.

Personally I would be inclined to call him a Welsh part-bred. Welshies crossed with WBs, TBs, A-As etc make the most wonderful athletic sports horses and if he were mine, I would be proud to fly the flag for the influence of one of our native breeds.
 
Has anyone managed to contact the stud to see if WWMM is suposed to be out of a good stallion? There may be a reason he hasnt got proven parentage like my horse. I know who the parents are but dont have them in his passport yet?

My horse was homebread so for some reason dosnt have anything in his passport.

I may make it my mission to try and find out :-)

I also think that some of the comments on here are a little rude, Most points true but no need to attack people (TOAST)

he has terrible conformation and with dubious breeding....a true stallion is one which is a fine example of the breed and good at their job.

Not Dutch but might be warmblood -it all depends.
Warmbloods in the main, are not breeds but registries and some allow different breeds in the mix.
 
He's passported with sport horse breeding of great Britain and under breed he is *sport horse*.. When i bought him they said i could have him passported with a warmblood society or sports horse but there was a substantial difference between costs of passporting.. and i figured because i wasn't keeping him entire then i'd go with the cheaper option.

His mum is 4* graded apparently, sire isn't graded .. don't know huge amounts tbh.. researched the line a bit and asked around about off spring - that was enough :D

With ungraded parents it is very expensive to start registering a gelding.
 
The mare is definitely graded but sire isn't. Not interested in registering him as like i said he's not entire so i don't see the need too. I just wandered if i could really tell people "he's warmblood" when they asked! :)

You can call him a warmblood -just don't give him a nationality :)
