RE: [RC] standardbreds in endurance or arab standardbred crosses? - Nancy SturmHi Wendy, We love standardbreds. If you check the AERC records, I think there are 67 with AERC numbers as compared to 13,000+ Arabs, so that sort of suggests the breed of choice, but my daughter plans to do a few LD's this year on her 10 year old off-the-track standardbred gelding. He has a wonderful disposition and paced a 2 minute mile on the track, also did one LD with another owner in 2:08. Good luck with yours!

Please Reply to: wendy mickels kw4nak@xxxxxxxxxx or ridecamp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ========================================== I am about to receive a very nice quality Standard bred mare from Delaware. My question has anyone used these with any success in endurance? what about arab standardbred crosses? She is beautifully put together with great ballance. She Has won a few races and one time won even with a small fracture, so she has heart. I have always had a soft spot for these nice animals dispite the head. I have a barn full of arabs. I guess I am doing my part to keep this one out of a dog food can and hoping to show they have other uses. any input would be appreciated. I ask about crosses because I still have a breeding to Nv Congo to use on any mare I choose purebred or otherwse. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
