hi
i am wanting 2 put my mare in foal this year
shes a 15.2hh chestnut mare by carnaval drum
i have found 3 stallions that i like
crown blue pearl,
milky way
mcjonnas
just wondering if anyone has used any of these or know how nice there off springs are ?
 
I love the look of Milky Way but do not beliebe he has done anything himself under saddle.

I have seen some stunning foals by McJonnas and so of those 3 I woudl personally choose him.
 
yer i love the look of mcjonnas foals they are stunning !!! and the owners seems real nice and helpful
love the way milky way moves but dont know much about him. saw him on you tube !!!
and crown blue pearl looks like a amazingjumper but cant find much about his foals plus i cant go and see him coz hes in another country !!! but looks top class !!!
 
umm still cant decide both are real nice
like mcjonnas coz his foals are lovely and i'l b able 2 go c him but like the fact that crown is out competing
crown is expensive and mcjonnas is alot cheaper but this foal is hopefully for me 2 keep so want to get it right
i bred my mare as she has been amazing so wanna make sure i make the right choice again
 
hi sorry i have looked at him but dont want to use a pure tb shes fine enough as she is Hes very nice but want bit of bone
has any1 seen crown ace of pearls? he looks nice aswell !!!
 
What about Crowns Wonder Pearl?

i will have a look but really want to breed a palomino like my horses dam is. her dam was my 1st horse and my dream was 2 have another palomino
 
yer i may come down he is stunning just been reading your website Looks like her has a huge jump and very powerful stides
you know roughly what colour see would have ant a clue how it works with a single !!! shes chestnut but goes nerly liver in the summer!! she was born chestnut but with palomino legs and ears !!! her dam is palomino And her sire carnaval drum liver chestnut!!!
 
You would have a 50% chance of the foal getting the dilute gene. Legrande carries both a chestnut gene (his mother was palomino) and a bay/black gene, from his father.

Your mare will always pass on a chestnut gene so there is a 50/50 chance of him passing on his chestnut gene, so the odds of your foal being chestnut is also 50%.

I suppose the real consideration should be, what do you want the foal to do in the future? If you are looking for a potential competition horse, then you need to consider what the stallion is doing and what its lines have done in the past. If you are breeding solely for the colour, then you would be guaranteed a palomino if you use a cremello stallion.

You are more than welcome to come over and have a chat if you do manage to get to the parade.
 
My own peronal feeling is that Legrande is lovely and you should also consider Treliver Decanter. I have a Palamino filly by Decanter and she is stunning with beautiful WOW! movement. Unless you have a big moving mare I would not put her to Mc Jonas... We have great stallions of colour in the UK who are way better then those bred for just color so take a look at them first. I feel that its best to breed a good horse than one of color and if luck flows your way you coud end up with a cracking horse with a colour you love. Good luck.
 
yer i know what your saying and would never breed just colour
i bred my horse jazmin and looked at many stallions before picking carnaval drum
i just want a nice horse i can do BSJA and BE with
the foal i breed is hopefully for me to keep so want make sure i get it right !!!

u say 2 only use mc jonnas if i have a big moving mare why is that? hes got a short trot hasnt he? but a gd walk and canter
i would say my mare is a wow with her strides but she covers the ground for a 15.2hh and has a massive jump and every prof that has given me a lesson loves her coz shes very bold with a clever brain
in a ideal world i want another jazmin but palomino if possible !!!

when is legrande first foals due to be born ?

many thanks every1 for the help so far [image]http://jazmin eventing[/image]
 
was trying 2 send picture of her will try again

oh yer what dateand time the stallion parade ? [image]http://n686785521_356217_5914[/image]

i'm rubbish with computers lol
 
Legrande's first foal is due 1st May out of a Calvados mare.

The stallion parade is on 21st March at Hartpury College in Glos. I think it starts at 2:00pm

The old saying "a good horse is never a bad colour" is quite true, there is no point in breeding a palomino if it is not going to do the job you want. So first consideration should be suitability, ability and then colour.

For me Legrande's colour is the icing on the cake, not the cake itself.

Decanter is also another UK based dilute who has a proven competition record, which for me is a very important consideration when breeding any foal that is destined for a competitive career.
 
i like legrande more
ive seen decanter and wasnt my type of horse (very nice but not for me)
yer i know what your saying its just a bonus the colour and def put colour last but if could get both be great

will prob go 2 the stallion parade then

what legrande bred for mostly showjumping? dressage ? or eventing?
has he won any money jumping ect ?
 
He has won dressage competitions with scores over 70%, as well as qualifying for both the regionals and Badminton final, he also finished in the top 10 in the Shearwater potential international young dressage class at the Welsh Festival.

He has only been jumping since May last year and by October he had jumped all his double clears BN and Dis.

Hi, I'm not trying to persuade you or advertise my boy but just wanted to say although Electrum is TB he is not light boned as some TB's are perceived as...just incase others got the impression he was from this post.
He is not actually 3yo until May but is already taller than his sire and dam...they are only 16hh but both big boned.
His palomino sire GP's Krugerrand is a Hunter and Hunter sire in the US and his dam Brightest Gold won in Hunter breeding classes too.

Hi and thanks

The palomino is his sire GP's Krugerrand.
No foals yet , he was too immature last year but he has just covered his first mare this year and three more within the next couple of weeks. Will then go to Sally at Groomsbridge Stud and she can do A.I. from there.

I'll back him at the end of the Summer.

I've only got video of him as a yearling and can't work out how to get it off my puter and onto youtube..the file doesn't seem compatible???
I need to get someone else to take video of him soon and get them to figure out how to upload it.
Can't really answer more questions on here because of the advertising rules so best to go to his website www.electrum-cremello-tb-uk.com
