What do you mean by high performing? Are you looking for a good show horse or a breeder?

I don't think you are going to get a very high PT foal from either combination.

In your first combo your stallion is a gen 2/3 uneven with rank special stallions on both sides. His PT is where I would want a gen 2 PT to be. His mom is Papered but hasn't been through free testing...so no telling if she's a decent breeder. The mare is a regular create foundation. Her AFPT is inflated by lots of uneven foals from high Gen stallions. She might be great, might not be if you bred her to Foundations.

In your second conbo, you have an even gen 3 stallion who hasn't been papered and has a PT that is well below what I would expect a gen 3 to have. PT doesn't really have a direct relationship to breeding ability, but you can generally assume that that a horse that has a high PT and has passed SAT may have a better breeding ability than a horse with a low PT and has passed SAT. I would expect a gen 3 stallion to Paper A. Your second mare is from my stock. She's ok but she got culled for having a lower than expected AFPT for her generation, which is even Gen 2. These two really might be a decent combination in that they probably have a similar breeding ability.

For a straight up answer. No. I don't think breeding either pair will produce anything useful. They'd make pretty colors but that's about it.
As has been explained they won't produce good show horse based off their PTs and won't produce good breeding stock because they are so uneven

What I meant was by someone talking about genes that I won't understand as I am only 13.
