Lord Calando is cheap as chips (350€ per dose) and is the father of Lux Z (the legend) and dam sire of Chatman (Ludo Phillipaerts) and Numero Uno. His price is subsidised by the French Government (nice to get something back from them!!!) and he's the uterine brother of the great Carthago Z!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

He's famed for making great looking, super moving horses and refines as a result of the amount of blood he carries. He's also ranked in the French event sire tables.

I hear he has 100% fertility in the UK in 2008.

dollymixture - do you mean the stallion Richelshagen? Thats the only stallion I could see on their website

No idea if he would suit your mare as I dont know the stallion, but what are her strengths and weaknesses and what are you aiming to breed from her?

As you have not said what you are aiming to breed it is difficult to say whether your chosen stallion will suit. As you are in Cornwall if you are looking to breed an allrounder then I would suggest you have a word with the owner of Kings Composer. This stallion has them out there competing in all three of the main spheres.

I sent a strong WB mare there - the mare came home looking well, went in foal quickly and the resulting progeny I am delighted with so sending an event mare later this year.

,thats why i thought weekorchard would suit.xx

I believe Dalcotes (Kings Compser's stud) may also have a 3rd stallion standign this year in the pipeline alongside King and his sone Krieghoff (out of a Ricardo Z mare). Don't quote me on that tho...
