Although acceptable, 1 year is a bit early for the use of a stud dog and a maiden girl to a maiden boy is never easy. Young males can be very willing to give it a try but many will panic at a young age when the "deed" is close to being accomplished and will fail to get the job done.
What you really need to consider is which stud has the qualities that you need to improve on in your girl. Whichever one appears to be the best choice for that should be your pick. Remember that you can't fix everything in one breeding - changes are made over generations. Pick one or 2 items and try to improve those. Then move on to the next.
Best of luck.
