British Equestrian Federation asked me to make a video of Nicola Shipp demonstrating “How to Prepare your Foal for Futurity Evaluation”. While I have been involved with horses since the age of 7 … many decades ago … I have never got involved with breeding. I therefore found making this video very educational. There are lots of tips on how to prepare your foal for the evaluation and a demonstration of an evaluation. I found the answer to the question about conformation towards the end of the video very interesting.

If you have found this web page because you are an equine breeder then I strongly recommend that you look at www.britishbreeding.org for a lot more information on Futurity.
