Close breeding such as a mating between sire and daughter will test the good and the bad genes in that family. Such matings are used on an experimental basis to discover if there are any undesirable recessives in the family (such as red coat colour in Friesians).
Colts -occasionally- can be fertile enough to get a mare pregnant at 6 months old. However, the majority will certainly be able to get a mare pregnant from 10-14 months of age. However, there are never any hard and fast rules in equine repro...
While racehorse stallions start their breeding career after having finished their performance career, riding horse stallions are often simultaneously used for breeding and performance.
Horses can be capable of breeding from 18 months old, but domesticated horses are usually allowed to mature to at least three years old before breeding.

From ages 4 to 15, mares are in their reproductive prime. But from 15 to 20, their fertility declines, says McCue. Reproductive problems only continue to intensify in mares older than 20. Of course, each mare is an individual with her own health history and genetic tendencies.
Stallions will typically remain fertile beyond their 20th year of age. The age that stallions stop producing spermatozoa will vary between stallions. It is important that semen is routinely evaluated on all stallions, especially when using older stallions because of the expected decrease of semen production with age.
Often stallions collect on a schedule (e.g. Monday, Wednesday and Friday). Some stallions may collect any day they are needed. Paint and quarter horse stallions commonly collect every other day from February 15 to July 15.

This will occur until the mare is fully sexually receptive, and is close to ovulation. When she is, it has been suggested the stallion will breed her 4-10 times (some say 4-5 times, others 8-10) in the 18-24 hours where she is in full standing heat.
