I have an exceptional producing mare that I have created 97 embryos for, all using straws from exceptional producing or exceptionally perfect stallions. The oldest offspring are 8 years old, the youngest are foals.

I have 12 intact stallions, 8 A papered, 4 B papered. The latter are all superior to their B papered sires.

I have 21 intact mares, 4 are Blue papered, 17 are red papered. I believe that all but current year's filly have been through SBA. The youngest has been through BA.

So, in 8 years of making 97 embryos from this mare, I have 33 currently intact offspring; 12 of them papered higher than their parent of the same gender.

So far I’ve used 118 embryos this season (massive clean out of my freezer lmao) 3 colts and 5 mares are left intact so far.

I call them my gorgeous show babies and was honestly surprised any stayed intact

You'd probably have better luck breeding her to a B papered stud, but as my example shows, even breeding even papers, the intact rate is fairly low.

I would use only boosted mares with an A papered boy, and find a nice expro for your reds. Lab breeding is way to expensive to not make sure you have the odds with you.
