He's been bred to some quality mares. From what I've seen, there isn't a consistent type or stamp. He's a lovely horse, with many good qualities, so it will be interesting to see how they develop...

ljs - are you taking your Escudo's? If so, I'd love to hear what the judges thought :yes:

What a wonderful inspection :yes: The judges were great, and the horses were all lovely :) Out of the 12 foals presented, 3 were out of SPS mares, 2 out of EM, and 3 out of EMC, with the other 4...

I'm heading off now to the inspection to spectate & hopefully will a few things as well :) Very excited to see some of the Escudo's! I was hoping to see another De Laurentis, but it looks like the...

I completely agree with VirginiaBred. Breeding may be a crapshoot, but there are ways to go about things to ensure you give yourself the best chance, the foundation of which starts with a great...

What are you breeding your QH horse for? Do you do the AQHA stuff?

Just because someone is breeding a QH, does not mean that they are breeding a low quality animal. The QH industry is quite...

Any pictures? I love Cunningham :)

You are in Ontario? I would re-breed, things don't always happen on the first try, and if your climate is hospitable for a foal in July, you should be fine....on the other hand, starting early next...

showjumpers - that is so interesting! I will have to ask the vet about this on Sunday..any reason why?

Just replied...over there ;)

I hope it works out for you - it would be a lovely match :yes:

Very sorry for your loss :(

can't re- has a wonderful mare who has has had something like 12 ET foals...I don't think she was the owner the whole time, but she might have helpful advice as well.

Zeus, Voltaire, and Buckpasser :yes:

Yes, it is strange to see the sale's horses come through the barn (WB's with papers - largely imports), have less bone than the 2 TB's in the barn....I love bone, you can find it in the TB's, I have...

Well, having a neighbor who does the AQHA stuff, it seems like they like to spend big-time $$$$ on what most would never think of....that number doesn't surpise me at all, and the same with the...

When I inquired about a successful hunter-mare, legit 6-figure horse who has shown & won a lot, it was a bit less than a stud fee...

What is Silvio's stud fee? In the various discussions of him, I can't recall his stud fee...:)

I think Raffaello would be a great option for you as well. He is gorgeous to look at, very reasonable stud fee, and great bloodlines. I think he would improve your mare's topline and hind-end, and...

Gorgeous can't re- ! Can't wait to see that one jump :yes:

My TB mare has a lovely De Laurentis who added more action then the other dressage stallion she was bred to, but still has her moms light gaits & freedom of shoulder - she is a nice, nice mover. ...

maple - if you don't mind me asking, who do you use for a vet? Please feel free to PM me, I'm also in MA :)

When Tempo was bred with fresh 4 years ago (not be me), it took her 3 attempts with his fresh. I do think they started too early the first time, but catches if one guy gets anywhere near close to...

Oh you must be thrilled! My mare has a coming 4yr old by Parabol and he is lovely :yes: Just wondering, did you use his frozen? How did it look?

I am very sorry for your loss!
