Holsteiner vs Dutch Warmblood

So I've discovered more of my horse; Herbie's history, as well as the fact that he was named "Herbie" later on by another owner and, have learned his actual name per se. I have also found his pedigree and I know warmblood pedigrees are weird in the sense that the baby is whatever the dam is regardless of what breed the sire is. Where it gets confusing is when the dam is approved by a registry then the baby is what that registry is, but that's another topic. It's also confusing in the sense that Herbie is registered with Zangersheide, so he's considered a Zangersheide even though his dam is Dutch Warmblood and his sire is a Holsteiner. I already did my Herbie, Holsteiner project when I thought that was solely what he was (although his pedigree shows he's got a lot of Holsteiner in him and I'll probably see that on the DNA test too when it finally comes in) so I was thinking of doing another project horse with his original/registered name. No one breeds Zangersheides on here so it's come down to which side of his pedigree I should dedicate this one to, the Holsteiner or the Dutch Warmblood.


What do you guys think? A lined Holsteiner project horse or a store Dutch Warmblood project horse? There's no goal in mind yet, I'm waiting to see how Crystal turns out before I make my decision on that and debating on how insane I'm on when I would do this project.

I mean, I would probably do a Holsteiner since you already breed them.

They're currently tied.


@Jaya - I breed Dutch Warmbloods too, but the age line up of my pairs wouldn't work out with when I want to start this project but I do have three Holsteiner pairs that will, that's the only reason for the lined vs store.
