Who is/was Dallas??

[Hayz]

A mare I am interested in has Dallas lines, she is WBXTB.
Who is/was he? I think something to do with sj.

Thanks

Please, anyone any ideas?:o

very famous chap, belonged to the rawdings i believe. not really my area so i don't know an enormous amount about him but i know the name and reputation.

[Hayz]

Thank you

The lady was talking about him (its her grandsire) and I just didnt know.

Was he the WB or TB side?

I sound a right idiot!

[Mehitabel]

i *think* he was/is a selle francaise accepted into the WB studbooks, but don't quote me on that. not a TB though.

[Hayz]

Oh, I did look on all breed pedigree but didnt find anything?

I didnt realise that could happen.

[Mehitabel]

yes, other breeds can be accepted into studbooks for warmbloods since they're not closed studbooks. it's normally TB, arab or anglo arab, so a horse who is officially pure WB can be a good dollop of TB.
if you look for dallas brightspark on allbreeds, he is by dallas so click on his sire and it should be the right one.

aha - found him! brightspark had no sire recorded, but cameo's reflection did.

Brilliant thank you!!

He was a JA, is this correct?

It is desired breeding? He is stuning!

[Mehitabel]

no clue about the specifics of gradings etc, but yes, very creditable breeding. he was a very good horse in his day.

[Hayz]

Oh good! I like her more now! lol

Does anyone know anymore or if theres a webby or something?:)
