Choosing TB or Arab stallion suggestions

If you are looking at Arabs I might suggest one in the Carolinas who has Serazim on his damline. Serazim was the sire of the US Reserve eventer Vermiculus. His name is Aur Secret. Sadly although Serazim was Canadianbred he did not leave a legacy in Canada. A Canadian stallion I have thought about trying however is Ohadi Las Indianfire in BC.

I dont see a website or anything for this oneā€¦do you have any idea where his information can be found?

I havenā€™t seen a website or ads for Aur Secret, and Iā€™m not sure if he is standing at public stud, but if you are on Facebook this is his current owner.

Itā€™s the breeding aspect- I donā€™t want to breed her to an overly large stallion as she is a maiden mare and I donā€™t want to chance increased complications. I know the foal usually adapts to the uterus and not the other way around, but repro vet figured to minimize risk, stay with a stallion 16h or under.

He certainly is a beautiful horse- thank you! I am open to non TB suggestions.

Talk to stallion owners about their foalsā€™ average size. My TB stallion is 16.2, and so far his progeny seem like they will be around his size at maturity. However, his 4 recent foals from maiden mares have all been born small. Thus far they seem to catch up by 5-6 months. Last year my April colt out of a maiden mare was nice, but a little runty compared to the huge beautiful February filly out of my proven producer. Now, as a yearling, he is a few inches taller than the filly despite being a little younger.

This yearā€™s foals were the sameā€¦big foals out of proven mares, small foals and easy births out of the maiden mares. It may not always work this way, but I do mention it to mare owners as a positive for maiden mares.

Tate produces really ammy friendly offspring and a Trakehner would be a more blood type.

I guess you missed my post as it was brief.
I have two Anglo Arabian stallions. Both are lovely over fences. One is a multi National Champion and the sire of winners at the National level and at open Hunter shows.
I also have two very nice TB stallions. Gentle souls with lovely movement, who also happen to be homozygous black and are frame overo. The 6 year old is schooling nicely over fences.
Donā€™t let anyone tell you TBs or Anglos are hot. I have been breeding them for nearly 30 years. No one here has the experience with Anglo Arabians that I have, and they are not difficult at all. Donā€™t be persuaded to go to a Warmblood if that is not your goal.

If you are concerned about size, I would maybe consider a sportpony. Iā€™ve seen some lovely Welsh/Arab crosses and I would think Connemara or German Riding Pony might also be nice.

Connemara would be a great option. There are a number of very good Tb or high percentage Tb to choose from. Is there frozen for Ideal?

You might consider KB Tomega Fahim - a black Shagya stallion. . . standing at Elaine Kerriganā€™s Kerrigan Bloodstock.

I do not have personal experience with his children and he is frozen.

Looking back again at the mareā€™s pedigree, Soldat sired some very fancy Anglos such as Soleya who was out of Kellys Best, a mare from Turn To lines. She was shown mainly on the Arab circuit so not sure how proven she was in high performance, but she won multiple National Championships on the line.
