Clydesdales
I'm working towards Clydesdales so if anyone could offer shires/fresians/any horses that are needed to get there could you possibly say. It would help a lot! Thank you ^-^
Re: Clydesdales
I bred two Clydesdale colts today:
http://www.horseworldonline.net/horse/profile/33387 - It looks like he might have faint dun markings on his legs, I'll see when he truns one. I know his grandsire has them, and loking at his dam I think she has a faint set too. It's a bit hard to tell though because she has pangere

Both scored 4* on the evaluation. I've repeated the cross, hoping for a filly this time
Edit: Third time isn't the charm apparently, colt again http://www.horseworldonline.net/horse/profile/33681. At least he's 4*

Re: Clydesdales
I've ended up with another two 4* colts this morning. No fillies though, they always turn out as grade horses for some reason. Even when the same cross has produced three 4* Clydesdale colts, the fillies they produced were grade instead. I thought it was interesting to note.

Look at the breed book evaluation. Fillies are usually too short to pass.
Re: Clydesdales
That's what I've figured out
It adds a bit more of a challenge I guess

Re: Clydesdales
I am working towards Vanners, so part of that is a Clyde program. I'd be happy to help anyone in any way I can.
