[RC] QH/Arab cross - Lysane CreeJennifer, Being a Paint horse owner myself, I'm hoping you go with the Paint stallion :) I think that a QH/Arab would make a good cross, and it seems others on ridecamp have had success with this type of cross. I would just add, that you should consider the type of QH that you are crossing with. There are different types within the breed as I'm sure you know. And this goes for Paints as well. Check out the horse's bloodlines - if they are mostly halter horses in his pedigree, these ones tend to have huge hind ends and I would worry about tying up with those, even if crossed with an Arab. And many halter horses are not really bred with "athletic ability" in mind. But if you go with the ones that are more along the lines of cutting/reining bloodlines, I think it could make a great cross with an Arab. Also, the QH and Paints that have racing bloodlines (and Thoroughbred blood) could make good crosses with Arabs. Or a horse that has proven itself to be an "all-around" type, successful in several disciplines. Hope that helps, Lysane ______________________________________________________________________ Post your free ad now! http://personals.yahoo.ca =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
