..I'll go away now!!
 
I agree about tb's being used as an improver but I've noticed recently that more studs are opting for warmblood stallions and mare owners are more likely to use warmblood or foreign bred horses. three actually four local studs who used to use tb's,ID's natives and even arab have all bought warmblood stallions, one has replaced all four stallions with three warmblood stallions.

Its such a shame they do as we have the same good bloodlines that the Europeans use good TBs that is all we do diffenetly is we are not farming them and there is no real scale to the sports horse buisness over here take racing where you have the scale, and the prices and the set up and you lead the field shame we can not do the same in sports horse breeding.
we could do with a very good patron to set up a very big concern over here using the best of British put some marketing in and deliver some gongs and thing would change they would make a killing!
Oh Hollie831 nice !
 
Huge fan of british bred horses and do think that these are often overlooked in favour of the foreign breeds. Everyone seems to be looking for a very large warmblood these days. Here are some pics of my 15hand welsh section D x TB.

This was Knaresborough Moon Dust, Cleveland Bay filly, here she is around 14 months of age just starting to come out of her winter coat.

Cleveland Bay mare Knaresborough Moonbeam at 5 years.
She has 230mm of good flat bone and produces good strong well grown foals.
Such a pity she is rarer than the Giant Panda. Moonbeam is currently an 8 year old carrying her fifth foal and we are trying hard to restore the bred to some decent numbers.

Timberlane Huckleberry, is a NASTA performance tested stallion
like's a bit of dressage when not on ceremonial duty.
Did I mention he is a Cleveland Bay ?
 
Just out of interest Aredis what grade did he achieve at his performance test?

Hi

He acheived a Grade 1 or is it Class 1 with a score of 121.44.

I have a pure bred colt foal by him ( Arena Big Ben ) who I am very pleased with and the mare is currently in foal to Huckleberry again.

He is only available frozen, West Kington have it in store.

Thanks for your interest
 
T Huckleberry is stunning, really like him Aredis (PM on the way btw!)

Here are a few of mine over the years which will bore you to tears in no particular order!

I'm Still Waiting (TB, owner was a fan of Diana Ross!) with Wolvesacre Georgia by Embla George (RID) only a few minutes old. She ended up grey.

Commanche Lyn (TB by Commanche Run) with week old colt foal by Maurice Miner (ID) just look at the legs on him.

This was him at 3 - he's now almost 18 hands and is a superb hunter that also does well showing; his owner loves him to bits. Freda is in foal to Maurice for next year; is it too much to ask for a doppel ganger?!

Barley Spryte (by Harvest Spirit TB x Cob) this is the mare that started it all for me!
As she was when I first saw her, not a pretty sight but boy could she move!
spry001.jpg


With yearling and foal, both by Embla Statesman (ID)
008-1.jpg


This is that yearling two years ago, he's now coming 20 this year and is having fun quietly hunting and fun rides.
Fiver001.jpg


This is out of Spry and by Big Connaught (TB) He was overall Champion IN Hand at the old HIS Show & Sale at Malvern that year as a 2 yr old. Went on to a successful show career and now loves nothing better than paddling in the sea near Llandudno!

My two coloured children out of differnt TB mares and by Bazaars Texas -

Aredis, your horse's are truly stunning, you should be very proud indeed!

That is very kind of you, I only recently (3 years ago) started horse breeding after discovering that the Cleveland Bay is a Catagory 1 rare breed.

I remember going to buy a three year old part bred Cleveland Bay at the society auction around 35 years ago and could not afford to buy one as they brought real top money then for hunters, jumpers etc, a pure bred breeding mare was like gold dust. Fashions may have changed but fashions often come around again.

They are a superb utility horse and I will keep and breed the pure bred horse as long as I am able. Every now and then though we will have a part bred and send it for training to indulge the dream of maybe finding another international horse like Mattie Brown, North Flight, Newsham Belle and Sanyo Vista, who were all part bred Clevelands and were household names when showjumping was one of the main sports on TV.
