Can any of you Irish Draugh Horse breeders help me please?

I've just bought a mare and I know all the breeding on her sire's side but not her dam's side and this where I'm hoping you'll be able to help me or tell me where to look.

My mare is out Gaelic Rhapsody who sadly died in Feb last year. She was by Rathdowney Fern out of Mystic Melody.

Rathdowney Fern is by Garvagh Boy out of Rathdowney Heather.

Mystic Melody is by Coranash our of Alex.

Does anyone know of these horses?

THANK YOU in anticipation.

The only one of these on AllBreeds Pedigree seems to be Rathdowney Fern:

Unfortunately no pictures. They have an asterisk against them if there are pictures.

You could add your horse and the intermediate generations to the All Breeds Pedigree website.

Hope you find out more. Maybe write to the breeders in the passport. I did this for my two, and got info and pictures from one of them.
 
Thanks. I've spoken to all previous owners and her breeder thats how I the info that I have. Thanks for the link. Will add my girl next. Need to think of a name for her, posh name that is ready to get her registered.

Gaelic Rhapsody was RID - so listed in the IDHS studbook. She goes back to Milestone and Clareman.

There IS a Mystic Melody in the IDHS stud book - but not the right one as she was by Maplehayes Maximillion - a Grade2 ID.

Coranash doesn't turn up anywhere

Thanks for the info and links, does anyone have any career info on any of these? I know that Gaelic Rhapsody and my mare won the mare an foal class at the Hunter Championships in 1999. I also know that Gaelic Rhapsody has done everything form endurance to dressage.

Many thanks
