From the breed show ring to the Grand Prix ring, Qredit has surpassed our expectations each step of the way. He’s been Grand Champion of Dressage at Devon, Champion of his 70-Day Stallion Test (earning ten scores of 9 or higher), Reserve Champion of the USEF Young Horse National Championships, 2x USDF Horse of the Year winner with many USDF All-Breeds titles, Champion of the US Dressage Finals, and winner of the Devon CDI4* Grand Prix & Freestyle. His pedigree is packed with Grand Prix dressage horses and includes jumping blood to offer versatility in breeding choices.

Qredit’s sire, Quaterback, was winner of the Bundeschampionat and competed to the FEI levels. His record as a sire is his true highlight and Quaterback ranks 2nd on the WBFSH Dressage Sire Rankings. Qredit’s dam comes from an exceptional mare family that has produced multiple licensed stallions and FEI horses. Damsire Dream of Glory competed to Grand Prix and sired licensed stallions, Bundeschampionat winners, high-priced auction offspring, and many Advanced Level dressage competitors.

Qredit’s offspring have won at Dressage at Devon, the USDF Breeders Series Championships, and are frequent winners at inspections. From his early foal crops, Qennett HTF, Quinzy HTF, and Quilana CF are shining at the FEI levels. Much like their sire, their versatility is also apparent with offspring winning in hunters, eventing, and even combined driving. Qredit crosses well on a variety of bloodlines and he is a fantastic choice for adding suppleness and elasticity with clockwork rhythm.

Mare Information
Mare Management Reminders

At Hilltop Farm we want to work closely with you and your veterinarian to ensure a successful breeding season and are available for questions at any time. The following information includes some basic suggestions as well as reminders on a few requirements for your breeding contract.

A Breeding Soundness Exam including a uterine culture is recommended, but not required, for all mares prior to breeding. If a mare fails to settle after two breeding cycles, Hilltop Farm will require a culture and cytology to be done at that time prior to any additional shipments of semen. We always recommend your vet checking your mare post-breeding to confirm ovulation. If a mare hangs on to a follicle longer than expected, it can be less expensive to ship additional semen than it would be to breed a second complete cycle. Getting your mare settled in foal is just the beginning. We recommend multiple pregnancy checks to help prevent cases of twins, misdiagnosed pregnancies, or lost time in the breeding season. The following schedule is what we recommend; only the first and fourth checks however are required by your breeding contract.

  • 1st check (Required): 14-16 days post ovulation – optimum time for vet to pinch off a twin if more than a single ovulation is noted.
  • 2nd check (Recommended): 28 days post ovulation – to confirm a viable pregnancy as the heartbeat normally appears by day 25.
  • 3rd check (Recommended): 35-40 days post ovulation – to confirm maintained pregnancy prior to endometrial cup formation. Mares that slip foals early may not come back into heat.
  • 4th check (Required): 55-60 days post ovulation – final confirmation of pregnancy in its critical first trimester.

Following your mare’s 14-16 day pregnancy check, please have your vet complete the Mare Breeding Passport received with your semen shipment and return it to Hilltop Farm. Any changes in pregnancy status after the 14-16 day check must be communicated to Hilltop Farm immediately. This Passport is used in all stallion reports to various breed registries and is used to generate a Breeding Certificate so that you can register your foal.

Registration & Futurity Information

Your mare’s registration and approval play just as important of a role as the stallion’s approvals when determining registration options for your foal. Please keep in mind that in order to register your foal with a specific association, your mare may first need to be presented to that registry for approval. In addition to the registries a stallion is approved with, there may be additional registration options based on your mare’s eligibility and the stallion’s credentials. If you are confused at all on registration options for a potential foal, please speak with Hilltop Farm and your breed registry PRIOR to booking your breeding.
