Stallion for TB Mare

    Hi, This is my first post on this site. Just looking for some advice, I have been given the use of a TB Mare for the year.
    She is due to foal in May with a Pilsudski foal (2nd Foal). Due to time constraints the owner isnt interested in breeding the mare and said that i can choose the stallion.
    I don't have much interest in breeding a TB as I'm more interested in sporthorses. I was thinking of breeding her to a RID Stallion. I was thinking Coolcronan Wood, Huntingfield Rebel, Ard Grandpa but someone else suggested a warmblood - Ricardo.
    She is a chestnut mare out of Flemensfirth and her dam is by Be My Native. Her temperament could be qustionable so a quiet tempered stallion is important. I dont what her jumping ability is like so im not expecting a top class showjumper but maybe something that could be suitable for showing/ Riding club jumping.
    Thanks for any advice

    I know a girl that handled some huntingfield rebel horses and she had nothing good to say about them. Ricardo is producing some lovely horses but there are a lot of them in the market at the moment. Not too sure about the other two you have mentioned. Im looking for something for my mare at the moment too, its SO hard to decide so best of luck!

    Worked very briefly at a stud (left due to annoying problems with my back). Huntingfield Rebel was there and he is an excellant stallion, I'm relatively new to stallions and I could rug him etc without a bit of bother!
