Too late now, but I would be more concerned about whether or not the stud I used best matched the qualities of my female and whether the mating would contribute to improve the breed.
As Lorraine said and I stated earlier...you are more concerned with the lines, health and improving the breed. Breeder smaller males to larger females or larger males to smaller females is irrelevant.....it all depends on what is in their genetic background as to what the final outcome will be.
