awgh i love haffys there so cute !!! You could use a haffy stallion and get a good allrounder. Or i personally would use a lighter weight stalllion ie a sport horse and breed a more athletic sort .

Depending on your budget and what you are looking for, i would go for a decent sport horse stallion for something a little taller and finer boned, or a draught breed if you want something again taller but heavier bone.
For an all rounder i would suggest a sport horse, and with AI being so widespread now, it is very easy to pick your perfect stallion wherever they ,may be!

Def go for a lighter weight stallion a TBx something that breeds good eventers! then u'd get a beautiful horse to use as a all rounder. Your mare is gorge :)

Id use a Haffy if your mare is registered. After all, anything else and youre unlikely to get the colour....

Hi,
there's a very good haflinger stud near me, but its in Sussex.
If you don't want a haffy, then I'd personally go for something like a 15.3/16hh warmblood/trakehner etc. A cremello stallion would be nice!! Palomino baby!!
How tall is your girl?
