Dressage Arabian Crossbreeds
I'm looking to work on breeding a few Arabian crosses and training them for Dressage. This is completely separate from my purebred Arabian breeding project. Here's what I need:
1. a long face
2. a shallow jowl
3. a medium length of neck
4. sloping shoulder angle
5. a low shoulder point
6. a deep rib cage
7. a flat hip angle
8. thicker legs but not too thick (about medium)
9. a backward stifle placement
10. a fairly long back (a bit longer than medium but not too much longer than that)
11. an uphill croup height
12. the face profile to be in the middle of Convex/Roman and Concave/Dished
13. a green/gold stat in each of the following traits: Movement, Tempo, and Balance
14. No red stats
15. Needs to have some Arabian blood
16. Can be an Arabian crossbreed with these other breeds: Andalusian, Oldenburg, Lusitano, Holsteiner, Dutch Warmblood, Danish Warmblood, and/or Westphalian horse.
17. Height would be preferred to be exactly or between 15 hands and 17 hands.
18. I would like the horse's build to be no more than medium heavy
I will also accept these other Arabian crossbreeds IF the horse meets all of the requirements from above: Thoroughbred, Connemara, Hanoverian, Friesian, Lippizzaner, Morgan, American Saddlebred, American Standardbred, Akhal-Teke, and/or Anglo Arabian
