I love the RB horses, a friend has a super horse by him who's winning at intermediate BE and could go advanced easily. He has a slightly quirky character but tries so hard to please, he's just a joy

I have never seen him, but he has a very good reputation as an event sire.

Hi guys,

Robertstown Boy is an Irish Sports Horse stallion, he is Wetherbys non-thoroughbred registered. He is by an ISH stallion called Leabeg who was by a Thoroughbred stallion called French Wood.

I have a 14 year old gelding by him. He is a pet - I bought him as a 7 year old. He taught me everything i know about jumping! He never stopped, never looked at anything, and would try his heart out....but he is slightly quirky. He dumped me on the road one day and galloped over 4 miles in the direction of home because a donkey frightened him!!!!

There was a mare by Robertstown Boy - Kilfeara Niamh - competing at Grand Prix level in Ireland a few years ago.

Austrialian Rider Lucinda Fredricks won the CCI*** 3 day event in Punchestown, Ireland a few years back on Ballyleck Boy - also by Robertstown Boy.

my chestnut mare tippy is by him and hopefully in foal to andes TB.
it is hard to find out much about him but he has sired many event horses including highville & ballybeck boy.
