While this mare owned and shown
by Wendy Ansell
from Coldstream Park Warmblood Stud
was the only entry in the TB Broodmares with foal at foot class, it is interesting to note
that many of the previous quality exhibits were from throroughbred (xx) mares,
and this highlights the role that quality thoroughbreds
have played in the breeding of performance horses.Many of the top international performance horses
are seen to be warmbloods, but a closer inspection of their pedigree will reveal the
content of thoroughbred blood (which is often very high).
The practise of classification ensures that we only
breed to suitable types, with movement,
temperament and conformation. |
