Famous Irish Stallions

 

[ibot]

If you pressed the info button you would have found:

Color: br
Height: 1.73m

RID 665

Died 1997, age 24
Clover Hill, Ireland`s number one sire, spent 22 years of his life at Ringroe Stud in the county of Tipperary with his life-time owner Philipp Heenan.
Clover Hill ranked 4th in the 2001-2002 WBFSH showjumping rankings with 39 offspring jumping at International levels. he is alongside king of diamonds, and the two most renowned irish shires of all time


So giving you: DOB, DOD, colour, height, breed, and a tiny biog.

If you fo on Irish Horse Board and search Stallions, it will list the horses he has sired.

That being every horse sold in Ireland ever since he first stood at stud...

*sniggers*

That was what I thought - as well as a significant number of horses subsequently found to be 5 or 6 years old!

I thought it might help narrow down the searchy, if the horse has been reg.

threw a lot of great jumpers, a lot of them bay iirc, and characterised by being quite long in the back (well, the ones i saw were.)

Had a lovely Grand daughter of Clover Hill a few years ago. Huge jump, sane and safe. Lovely girl.

ok stupid question i know but it said he died in 1997 but ranked 4 th in 2001-2002
??????
aaahhh maybe i should go back to being a blonde think maybe have a grand daughter?? could that be right ?? my horse is four and half.
i am so stressed can't even think any more.

You can still rate a stallion on their success based on the progeny they have on the floor.

ok i am stupid he was dead by the time my mare was born....

they look similar i guess wait for the passport to see what the story is. god i am a plonker!!!!!!

 

[Ellies_mum2]

It is possible you have a grand daughter of Clover Hill as a good friend of mine has a grandson of his. Her horse is by Diamond Clover if I remember correctly (and I think I do )

As you say though the passport should reveal all (hopefully

)

 

[wishfulthinking]

I think waiting for the passport is the best plan and if there is breeding recorded then you'll know for sure if she is by one of Clover Hill's stallion sons. Good luck with the new horse.
