The American Thoroughbred Review - Breeding Consultations

Where to Send Your Mare: The Most Important Decision

Of all the pitfalls in the breeding industry, few offer more severe consequences than making an ill-advised breeding decision. The financial effects of such a decision can linger for years, and it takes very few of these mishaps before a breeding program is shut down entirely.

The American Thoroughbred Review is pleased to offer it’s clients the most comprehensive and cost-effective consultation program in the industry. Included in each breeding consultation is a detailed analysis of your mare’s potential, whether it be in a commercial venture, or you’re breeding to race. We will compile a list of the mare’s strengths and weaknesses along with the client’s goals, then provide the names of stallions that we believe will complement the client’s mare and offer the highest odds for success.

Should any of the recommended stallions be found in our Stallion Conformation Profiles, those profiles will be provided to the client at no additional charge. For a sample consultation, click here. (download time for this file may be longer than normal)
