Your Guide to Graded
& Approved Competition Stallions
2025 Competition Stallions Guide – The stallion Guide to ONLY represent
Graded, Licensed & Approved Stallions
British Breeding is now proving its worth with
British Bred horses winning Burghley International Horse Trials, being
part of the Gold Medal winning Eventing Team, Silver Medal winning Dressage
team at the Olympics and many other top International results proving
that breeding in the UK is getting results. This comes from the availability
of some exceptional bloodlines in the UK with British based stallions.
Many stallions are now back to full competition schedule so offering a
mixture of Chilled early season or later season with Frozen availability
to fill in the gaps to provide the full opportunity to get your mare in
foal.
Certainly Brexit has played a massive role in increasing
the use of British based stallions due to the issues with movement of
semen across the European borders with increased customs issues and this
has resulted in some stallions making the move to stand at stud in the
UK.
We have seen the Competition Stallions Guide grow year on year with high
quality stallions in its pages and the website available to access 24/7.
We hope to represent as many of the 2024 newly graded stallions from the main studbooks in the Guide to be sourced for 2025.
We also continue to support British Breeding with publishing all the stallion data from the Futurity results each year and supporting the brilliant British Breeding Stallion Event each year which is taking place on the 8th February 2025 at Addington Equestrian.
We are pleased that Owners are using the online
updating system through their online access keeping their stallions’ page
upto date which is also used for resubscribing for 2025 and putting progeny
for sale online FOC.
If your stallion is about to come to the end of his 12month subscription,
the system will email you so you can login and resubscribe.
PLEASE REMEMBER all stallions that want
to be included in the printed Guide must have the listing re or subscribed
for the first time by the 15th December 2024
We look forward to producing another ‘must have’ publication for all sports
horse breeders for 2025.

What advertisers say"As the owner of only one stallion the Competition Stallions
Guide has proved invaluable to me. The Guide enables me to promote
Britannia's Mail alongside horses from professional breeding yards,
and its straightforward format means our clients can easily find
and compare suitable stallions. Britannia's Mail has had a successful
2023 breeding season and I can attribute this in part to our presence
in the guide." "With our serious portfolio of our own Woodlander & client
Stallions, the Competition Stallion Guide is always the firs component
of our promotional activity...simply unmissable" "We are so pleased with Britannia Royal’s entry in the
Competition Stallion Guide. It has proved excellent value for money,
producing a very good level of enquiries and bookings, not jus from
the UK but also from Aus ralia, New Zealand and the USA"

The Competition Stallions Guide provides high quality information on particular breeding information alongside detailed stallion information to enable mare owners to see what stallions are available at stud and be able to make a considered decision as to which stallions they want to follow up to compliment their mares.
It was decided early on that all Stallions listed should be either formally Graded or be Approved either by their own competition record or that of their progeny. It is important to note that Competition Stallions is not a Stud Book. So we have relied upon Stallion owners providing correct information. We hope to develop further relationships with the various Grading Studbooks as the years progress to be sure to include all Graded or Approved Stallions in some form or another. All Stallions have an indication as to which discipline their owners deem them most suited.
So if you are looking for a Dressage stallion, Endurance stallion, Eventing stallion, Showjumping stallion or Sports Pony Stallion they are easy to identify.
The Competition Stallions Guide was first printed in 2012 as an A5 publication before being redesigned and enlarged in 2020 to the current larger and easier to read format.
