studhorse

Sire for hire

A studhorse is a male horse kept for breeding, selected for desirable traits to pass to offspring.

The term emphasizes the animal's reproductive function rather than its use for riding or work.

Figuratively, studhorse can describe a man regarded as sexually vigorous or promiscuous: He fancies himself quite the studhorse.
