Horse breeding
It is almost impossible to top value and importance of high-quality brood mares for a breeding enterprise. We presently stable approx. 15 mares out of extremly valuable performance lines that already confirmed their hereditary qualities or that were successfull competition horses. Futurity prospects are always for sale.
