I don't know the davidsons, so can't comment, but I have talked with denny emerson on the phone 10 years ago when i was getting started with breeding for distance horses. I wanted to breed my mare to a good Tb for an Anglo.
I knew practically nothing about the tb bloodlines and I was a nobody from the midwest. Denny was gracious and encouraging and taught me a lot in our phone conversation. He took the time to help a rookie and I'll never forget that.

I will not go into my problems with Bruce and his breeding program all I will say is go with Denny. The O' Connor's rate in between the two for me, but Denny breeds a really top notch athlete, a good all around horse, and is a gentleman and a true horseman to boot. Honest as the day is long. Just my one cent on event breeding.... > Juli > > > Juli Jakub > > The Air of Heaven is that which blows between a horse's ears. > > ~ arabian proverb > Another place to look for endurance studs is in EVENTING. The TB excells in Eventing because of heart and speed. Some of the top eventingfplks breed eventing horses.
