Welsh/Quarter/Standardbred
Bred this filly like 5 seconds ago. Not exactly what I was hoping for, but it works.

QH/Hackney
Same results as the QH/Standardbreds, but with a Hackney. My project is coming along!

Has anyone done an App/Halfie cross? I want to know how it faired in comps before attempting one.

Has anyone tried an Arabian/Connemara or a Welsh/Knabstrupper?

Used to do KWPN cross Knabs. I still own Lyric who was a experiment from that.

I recently bought a Standardbred/TB cross...



Check out For you, my friend

Just bred a QH/Curly cross. Didn't turn out how I expected because trot and jump reversed, and speed and stamina are .30 apart.

I've recently been breeding Selle Français stallions with my Thoroughbred mares. Currently, the offspring are still foals but based on gp, they have great numbers. Does anyone have suggestions on competitions these foals might do well in?�

Take a look at these two:

Midas in Context, 8000GP

Wall Street, 9000GP

They dominate gallop competitions but also do well in jumping, and pretty much everything other than dressage.

Connemara/Arab
This is my most recent cross. Pretty proud of how she turned out.

App/TB

Super thrilled with how this cross turned out, kept the deliciously high gallop paired with some pretty decadent speed.

I plan to cross her with another cross I have lying around that I'm hoping will boost up the trot nicely while not overly lowering the gallop & speed. I'll be sure to show you guys the resulting foal good or bad.

If anyone would like to use her to help with any crosses they may want to try, I'm only a pm away

Where Are You?

^ EeE! So happy with this cutie.

Hi!
Is it better to have an all around good skill set or is it better to go for top three being much better than lowest 3?

Here is a Link to my cross .

I have better luck with specialized horses. The issue with an all rounder is that due to the proportions of the genetics you can only get the individual skills so high. Let's say all the skills are in the 1000-1300 range and want to enter trot comps. Your horse will likely be entering against horses in the 1000 trot range or so, but could have their speed and dressage skills in the 2000s with a low trot, meaning they will beat out your horse if the trot is around the same and your horses secondary skills are at a lower level than theirs.

Grant it, it very much depends on the other horses that are entering, so it doesn't mean that all rounders are a bad thing. I have a few all rounders that have won lots of comps,but in my experience my horses with a specialized top 2 or 3 skill set are more consistent winning comps.

Thank you for your help!

Does anyone have any good crosses for these breeds?
Shetland
Fjord
Purebred Spanish Horse
Connemara

I've picked up a few foals and want to find some good crosses for 'em. Me and my experiments

This little miracle!
Just born! looks like I might have found a good trot comp cross. What do you guys think?

I can finally start my second skill switching project. I decided to go with a Haflinger this time and spent over an hour the other day on a spreadsheet looking at different breed combos, none of which gave me the speed, trot and jump set I wanted.

Then I had an epiphany. I typed in a foundation Haflinger genetics, tried a couple more breed combos, and got jump to just squeeze out dressage. Fingers crossed the foals turn out as good in practice as they did on paper.

Speaking of spreadsheets, can anyone give me the formulas for calculating GP and inborn skills, etc? I want to calculate some genetics before I try a certain cross.

Okay! I'm back with experiment ideas.
I want to create a Nokota dominant cross that will win breed-only gallop comps, but can't find a breed with trot, speed, and dressage as top 3 skills, so I'm thinking of doing a Selle/Standardbred or a KWPN/Standardbred, or possibly a Shetland/Standardbred or replace Standardbred with Hackney on all those crosses to breed to a Nokota.
What do y'all think? Input and ideas are VERY much appreciated, as this experiment is in the planning stages.

Pasos are the only trot, speed and dressage breed.

GP=sire's GP+dam's GP divided by 2. I don't have access to the IBS formula on my phone, but you can also try to find the Howrse Plus calculator online. I use that when calculating IBS IS as it's quicker

@Legacy Ann- Thanks so much! I'll definitely use it.

I put the genetics of a 9000+GP Nokota mare and a 9000+ GP Paso stallion from top teams to test, because I don't have the breeding stock at the moment. This is what I got in terms of GP:
Stamina:1392.75
Speed:1959.19
Dressage:1479.66
Gallop:710.06
Trot:2238.39
Jump:1608.63
Pretty decent cross. Of course this one would be Paso dominant, so I'll do a Nokota dominant in a minute.

On second thought, I might try a KWPN to replace the Paso.
