Crossbreeding BS question

My purebred BS numbers are growing however I'm stuck when it comes to crossbreeding. How do we know best horses to breed together to get the best crossbred result. New project Warlander - Friesian/Andalusian.
Outside of campaign/club breeds is there a generic crossbred BS formula or is it shut your eyes and hope for the best? I get very poor results when it comes to crossbreeding in general.
Crossbreeds often have different breed standards than their purebred parents!
So when breeding the two, you might not always get what’s expected. I’d recommend not grooming your purebreds before breeding them, as there’s a +/-6 difference in your breed standards as opposed to the +/-4 when they’re brushed, so you have a chance of getting better breed standards.
Then you just breed your highest star cross breeds together to try and get higher ones :) you can also not groom them for a better shot at the right standards.
