Re: Your Breeds?
I'm working on Canadian Horses for Driving events and maybe I'll split some of my stock into English and Western events because Canadians pretty much can do anything lol
Right now I'm focusing on build and conformation and trying to keep as many dilutions out of my stock as possible (currently only have 2x Cream, palominos/buckskins, as my 'worst' dilution problem)

Re: Your Breeds?
Don't have projects or any particular breeds. I just breed, show, train & sell for the enjoyment of it. I have thought of starting up a project breeding mostly horses suited for Hunters, Jumpers, Dressage & Cross Country (with maybe a Reiner or Barrel Racer thrown up in the mix) but I have been playing the game for a week & am enjoying the horses & babies I am working with right now. I also have only this account, I don't think I'm organized or patient enough to manage two. Who knows, might change in the future, might not. We'll see. 
Re: Your Breeds?
I'm working on Vladimir Heavy Drafts, Budyonnys, and Turkmenes. My Vlads have been great in Dressage, Log Pull, and a few other disciplines and I've currently got three lines working - the main show/stats line that's just my best horses working on making better ones, and the strength/movement focused lines. Strength and movement seem to be the hardest stats to get green/gold in so I wanted to see how long it took to get my Vlads there.
My Budyonnys are kind of all over the place right now but the main focus is correct coloring (so chestnut with the occasional bay or black) and great at Show Jumping. I've recently had some pony-types crop up and I'm working on weeding those out.
Turkmenes I'm working solely on HGP. The goal is low-COI completely pure from the ground up, no other breeds. I bred the first absolutely pure Turkmene above 39K and then went on a long hiatus. While I was gone a few people bred to him over and over again and managed to get horses above 40K. Kind of wish I'd taken him down from stud while I was gone. He's on break from stud now (still showing - he's currently got a TMCh in racing, harness racing, and sprint racing) while I work on bringing up some new mares.
