Mostly Likely turn out on the most dominate, but it is possible for a Shire and ASB to breed. We have a mule that was from a 18hh Belgian draft and a minature donkey so it is possible. I would advise that it is dangerous to breed a big draft with a ASB they are tall and thin and it may be hard on the mare depending on what the foal might be. It could turn out to be much heavier than the poor mare is used to carrying.
The foal will definatly be a cross. It will most likely have more of its Dad's genetics, so it would be more Shire then Saddlebred. But I wouldn't suggest breeding a Shire to a Saddlebred. A male horse goes on top of the mare to breed, and I think that the poor mare would get crushed. You might have more luck with a Saddlebred Stallion and a Shire mare.
