CROSSING TIPS
Caruso is a stallion with a lot of strength and an excellent mind. He also has a fairly athletic build for the breed standard, with blood and three beautiful gaits, including a canter with great balance and amplitude. With an easy temperament and always willing to cooperate, he is a particularly diligent student and always eager to do well. It is best to give him mares with blood but not too big to stay within the pony size range.
