Welcome to morabnet.com
The Morab breed is a blend of the historical and inherent qualities of the Arabian and Morgan breeds--it is their classic yet functional beauty, their loving dispositions, qualities of soundness, stamina, and endurance that all comes together in the Morab.
BLOODLINES
The study of bloodlines of each breed, the Arabian and the Morgan, is to reveal a consistency in the ability of such breeding stock to pass on many outstanding and desired traits. There are many individuals used for breeding that have inherited a bloodline lineage noted for their ability to 'impart' desired qualities to their offspring. These qualities need to be evaluated by the prospectus Morab breeder in terms of goals of breeding, equestrian discipline and expected talent of the the product. There should be an attempt to blend the heritage of the Arabian and the Morgan with credible bloodlines for our present and future Morabs.
CONFORMATION
The equine requires correct form to withstand the rigors of activity that is asked of them. Conformation is directly related to soundness, versatility, athletic ability, and useful longevity. Most present day breeds become popular because of outstanding abilities in a particular equestrian activity, a particular physical appearance and soundness or they probably would not have survived. Today some breeds are plaqued by unsoundness because conformation became secondary in the breeding program. If Morabs are to survive, and give their owners years of versatile, useful enjoyment, we as breeders must use a critical eye...Form=Function.
