Hope someone can be more helpful than me!!
 
can't find any photos just now but my cousin bred one from him.... it came out bright orange with stockings and a huge white face. She had it dna'd to check but turns out that is exactly what HIS father was!

The mare had lots of ability (placed BYEH at Burghley despite what she looked like!!) but super super sharp and hasn't gone on to much really competition wise. Wasn't a repeat mating put it that way!! She just wasn't what we had expected!!

Would be iteresting to hear what he threw out of other peoples mares!! link to photo of kir royals sire
 
I knew this stallion very well a number of years ago. He came to the people I worked for to be trained and competed. Such a lovely horse. Really super nature and just stunningly beautiful.

Never had any experience of his babies, but if they're anything like Daddy they'll be lovely!
 
I knew him when he was in showjumping training. He was a lovely boy, fabulous temperament and lovely manners. He was an OK jumper but was never going to be top class. He made it to grade B. If he passes on his temperament he should produce lovely allrounders for normal, everyday riders but if you want an outstanding jumper or dressage horse he probably wouldn't be top of my list.
