[RC] Breeding - Mike Lewis

I recently purchased a pretty nice mare who has a good racing and
endurance background.  I would like to breed her eventually to a stallion
in hopes of producing a world class result.

I'm new to horse breeding and would like to know folks' thoughts about how
to select a stallion to produce my desired result.

The mare has completed the AERC national championship qualifying ride,
Biltmore Challenge, and another tough ride (can't recall the name, but it
is a SE endurance ride and goes STRAIGHT UP and STRAIGHT DOWN.)  She's won
a 25 and either a 50 or 100... will have to look up her records to refresh
my memory.

My thought is that I need to breed for disposition first, then soundness,
then for heart/lungs and athleticism.

I appreciate any thoughts.


Mike
