studhorses
Male horses breeding
Studhorses are male horses kept for breeding.
A studhorse is selected for desirable traits—speed, strength, temperament—and used to sire offspring.
The term sometimes appears figuratively for a man viewed as sexually prolific or virile: He fancies himself quite the studhorse.
