Are you talking about the coloured stallion Orlando? He stands at stud in Sudbury Suffolk and is by Oberon. He was bred by the Queen. The stud has some very good full TB mares that they put to him every year and the youngstock are nice types. I bought a 4 yo stallion son of Orlando from them a few years ago and he was a lovely horse but I did have him gelded as I was never going to use him for breeding. I also ride another by Orlando who is competing Medium dressage at the moment.
Orlando is homozygous which means that you are guaranteed a coloured foal no matter what colour mare you use.
Most of his stock have a reasonable jump as well.
