I have a lovely 7/8 TB, 1/8 Trakehner, 16.2hh, 2007, dark bay mare. Out of my Intermediate event mare Dillydotcom who had to retire due to being a mild headshaker. By Ganton Beltaine.
Her ridden career has been cut short much to my dismay as she showed a lot of promise and was more talented than her Dam.
I am in a quandry as to what to put her to, she has a sensible, brave head on her and is the epitomy of an event mare, her only fault is that she is a little long in the back and straight in the hocks. I probably would like to breed a bit more warmblood into her and was thinking of going down the cremello route and plugging for a dun!! I like something with a bit of height and after breeding a 17.3hh out of a 16.1hh mare and 16.1hh stallion I know that it is a lottery!!!
I would like something that tends to throw calm trainable temperaments with good movement and ability over a fence to go on and event.
Any ideas and links welcome as I am punch drunk looking at so many!
