I'm looking to breed my two mares sometime next year and I'm not quite sure who to breed to. They're both cow bred mares. One is peptoboonsmal on top. The other is two eyed red buck on top. I've been looking at a ton of horses, but I'm not sure what would cross well.

Heres my list: Carrizzo, Frenchman's Got Perks, Mulberry Fame, Eddie Stinson, Lucky wonder horse, Frenchman's Guy, Fame Ta Corona, and Frenchman's Fabulous. 

I'd love to hear opinions on these horses such as what's good and bad about them, what they cross well with, what their off spring are like. I've read that Frenchman's are usually better with run bred mares, but I'm not sure I'm new to breeding. 

I worry about crosisng all cow bred horses to all running bred because of the conformational differences in the lines. Sometimes there is no issue, but sometimes there can be conformational flaws. If you want to cross on something running bred, look at how your mares are built and try to find a stud who is structurally similar. Or, you may have better luck with a stud who is a cross of cow and run. 

For example, I have a Jackie Bee bred mare and have been considering breeding her to Fiestas Gotta Gun this year or next. 

Dash Ta Fame get/grandget can be really ratey so I'd look to cross that on a more running bred mare. All 3 of mine from 3 different DTF sons are all ratey suckers. We have an Eddie, Famous Bugs and a John fame. I LOVE the DFT lines but look for it crossed on run just bc of my personal preference.

Freckles Ta Fame is amazing and has quite the win record and he is out of a FG/Cow bred mare so there is that to consider too

My experience with FG grandget are they can be super ratey also. Some ppl LOVE the push style horses but I am not an aggressive rider so I need something with some WANT to run. JMO

I have loved every FG grandget I have rode. Some were run on the bottom and others were cow. They are quick and catty but super fun!

I know of a super exeptional mare in my area that is a daughter of JLDTH out of a mare by Peptoboonsmal.

Carrizzo - Nah

Frenchman's Got Perks- Who?

Mulberry Fame- This would be my pick.  Scottie is the best to deal with. He is beautiful in person as well.

Eddie Stinson- Would be another great pick.

Lucky wonder horse - really heavy in the front end.  I'd pass having seen him in person. 

Frenchman's Guy- doesn't cross very good on cowbreds unless you like buck.

Fame Ta Corona- again, Who?

Frenchman's Fabulous - doesn't cross on cowbreds very good unless you are aiming for a 3d playday horse.

I second Mulberry Fame. LOVE him! 

Ditto. I also agree with Whiteboy

Your best best would be Mulberry Fame. You want to avoid all race bred horses. A good cow bred or mix (cow and race bred) are going to be your best choices. Have you looked at other choices such as Blazin Jetolena?

First thing you need to do is come up with a budget on what you can afford. Then look at stallions in your price range. Your list is all over the board. As an example, if you don't have roughly $15,000 per mare to pay for ICSI and the stid fee, then Frenchmans Guy himself isn't really an option. 

A few years ago I read an article.  It was Dick Pieper (the owner of Playgun) talking about why Dash Ta Fame was so dominant in the barrel world.  Comparing DTF's conformation to a cutting horse, and his ability to use his hind end.  It was very interesting, though some will disagree with his perspective.  Let me see if I can find it.  

I would love to read that article!
