I would recommend crossing it with a KWPN to enter rosette show jumping competitions. I have a cross like that that kept winning lower level KWPN only rosettes even after he was a few months outdated

@Legacy Ann

Thank you for your help! I'm going to try that cross out today

Hi y'all! I just got back into crossbreeding and I got a purebred Mustang mare - anyone know a great western comps cross for her? Maybe a Marwari, I was thinking, or a Nokota, but I don't have much experience with western crosses.

I went ahead of myself and tried the Marwari idea. Here he is, little Lan Li. What do you think? Any advice on training?

Does anyone have a GV/Arabian I can see? GV as the main one....with good GP! I am thinking of making one

Yes. I've got 2. One is a Gelding in my GA coat breeding farm and the other (female) is in my breed inventions tab- under non-pure tabs.

Does anyone have-
1) Halflinger X Thoroughbred Stud
2) Walker X Welsh Stud
3) Thoroughbred X Trakehner Stud
4) Thoroughbred X Arabian X Appaloosa Stud
5) Gypsy Vanner X Irish Hunter Stud
6) Icelandic X KWPN X Lusitano Stud
7) Halflinger X Appaloosa Stud

I read the posts and I had to try it too. Here's my little experiment

Hi!

I just really wanted to share 2 of my latest BLUPs (they have rosettes):

姜婷 Jiang Ting, KWPNxSelle
公主 Princess, GVxSelle

If anyone's interested in a foal, let me know.

What would be a good breed to cross with an Arabian to get an all around horse for classical conpetitions?

Perhaps try a TB, I think that would be a good fit. Or a Selle, but make it Arab dominant. Selle dominant crosses don't win because their GP is generally lower than the highest GP Selle.

GV crosses do super well in cross country! Top ones even win lots of rosettes!

Newest addition to the cross family! Hoping to get top 5 in speed!

My Selle Francais mare

Any recommendations as to a potential cross? Would love to strengthen the trot, but I don't want to reduce the jumping or speed! I'm at a lose, HELP haha

I know it's not a KWPN, but I have a high GP Selle x Vanner you could try? Here she is: Princess. Let me know.

I did this as an experiment and he turned out better than I had expected

Do this cross with a higher GP mare and tears, he will be a monster!

I have crunched some numbers and it looks like you'll need to do an initial cross with a paso then breed back with another paso x selle or kwpn. to get the right numbers.

I am in the process of doing 2 blups once I get the necessary bits that I require. I can help you with what I have to increase the trot and stabilize the speed and jumps. This will also increase your dressage as well.

Im going to try and breed 2 crossbred horses with a total of 4 different breeds and im just wondering about which breed will the foal come out.

I have not decided in the breeds so will use an example to try and explain:

Dam: Arab dominant (50 GV x 50 Arab)

Sire: Lipi Dominant (50 Lipi x 50 KWPN)

In this situation which breed will the foal come out?
2nd breed indicated on the sire ?

Thank!

This is a 4-way that I have done

the dominant breed takes on the grand-dam as shown in the foal from the link I have used is a Standardbred which is what the grand-dam is.

Yes, I prefer to go by the sire's second listed breed (KWPN), as the breed order listing displays randomly. If the stallion you plan on using has a brother with the breed order listed as KWPN then Lipi second, the foal would be a Lipizzan instead because Lipizzan is listed second.

Here is an example that will give you a side by side family tree comparison.
This is a Russian Don dominant 4-way with a Russian Don as the grand dam. The sire has Russian Don listed second in his genetics.
This is her Akhal-Teke dominant cousin who is also a 4-way. Their sire's are full brothers, but the Teke dominant's sire has Teke listed second, whereas his brother had Russian Don listed second. The breed order flipped when I bred the paternal grandparents again.

thank you!

Hi everyone. I just started crossbreeding. Do you have any tips or things to remember? Thnx!!

Hi! I started crossbreeding recently because I like to see the results of the GP and the skills on the foals. I wanted a Welsh pony that will be doing pretty well in gallop comps, but I wanted to improve the speed skill for a little bit. So yesterday, I was breeding a Thoroughbred (which have higher speed skill than the Welsh ponies) mare with a Welsh pony stallion. And here he is, Hᴇxɪᴅᴇɴᴛ! Do you think he will be doing well in gallop comps when he´s fully trained? Here is a link to Hᴇxɪᴅᴇɴᴛ if you wanna take a look at him: https://www.howrse.com/elevage/fiche/?id=56197398

I think he's going to be great! I'm very curious to how he really turns out, but I think you have a very great combination there!
