I have a mare that I've always debated breeding from. Due to various circumstances I've decided that now (next year) will be the time to do it as long as the all clear has been given by my vet. I have never bred before but plan to do it by the book so to speak, and hopefully end up with a nice horse that when I've finished uni and got myself on my feet I can then work on and enjoy.
My mare is overly sharp and very quirky, though has a heart of gold. She was tricky to begin with and very trying both to ride and on the ground, but she has done a complete 180 temperament wise and now is a real joy to have around, bar the odd mare-ish moment. She's still extremely sharp to ride, but is not dangerous and would never dream of a feet off the ground moment.
All in all I'd like something to compliment her breeding which is here;

I have her AES stud card but not with me so can't fill in the blank at the bottom right now. I'd also like something to almost even her out conformationally;
She doesn't actually stand under herself quite so much behind usually but this is also the best picture to show her shoulde/long back/front legs.
She's touching on 16hh, has a good technique jumping, but not all that confident and has good movement despite being at a conformational disadvantage!
I'd preferably like something bigger, finer in the leg, saner in the mind and less sharp!
I know this is all very unrealistic, but I think ideally I'd just like a bigger, jumping stallion known for not throwing sharp offspring. Any ideas/recommendations?
