She’s chosen some very athletic jumper stallions.
I don’t know if it was this thread or the other, but if the few DHHs I have seen under saddle, one was a larger all around type who had been started very well, and probably could develop into a “Bear” type. Another was an interesting horse. He definitely could jump, and was super athletic … but he was HOT. And hard for a really excellent pro to break and start.
If someone were to cross type 2 on a top tier jumper stallion? The resulting foal might be REALLY challenging to start.
Thank goodness Kate didn’t cross one of these mares with Baloubet du Rouet or his son Balou du Rouet. That might have turned out frightening for someone…
Oh well. Hope the mares passed on lovely, amateur tolerant temperaments to the babies, and hopefully they turn out to be sporty solid citizens.
