CONSIDERATIONS FOR BREEDING

ARMITAGES BOY is a very modern stallion perfectly mixing type and power. Compact with powerful hindquarters, he always shown his top sport horse qualities while competing: blood, balance, speed, excellent hind technique... not forgetting his legendary powerful push off. He passes on jumping ability, carefulness and strenght to his offspring and is best bred to mares with a well-connected or even stiff top line. Regarding height, it seems he lets the dams taking it on.
