Stallions
Our stallions
While we continue to use outside stallions whenever they can add value to our breeding, we also stand our own stallions, bred, tested and recommended by us. These are horses that, after backing and thorough assessment, we decide to keep at the stud for longer: we invest in their sporting careers and use them as sires in our breeding programme. They are also available to other breeders who want the same bloodlines and the same rigour of selection.
