Cross Creek Sport Horses is pleased to announce the purchase of our new Irish Sport Horse stallion prospect. The flashy black colt is a 2006 son of the famous Registered Irish Draught (RID) stallion, Touch of the Blues out of the Registered Thoroughbred mare, Seattle Gift, a great grandaughter of Seattle Slew. The sire has been an extremely accomplished breeding stallion, show and event horse in Ireland and America, the dam was a very successful show hunter on the "A" circuit. "SEATTLE BLUES" shows the talent of both parents even at his young age. He is a very nice mover and is already playing over jumps in his paddock! His fancy white markings display sabino characteristics and we look forward to breeding him to some of our painted pure Thoroughbred fillies for some very flashy 3/4 Thoroughbred - 1/4 Irish, Irish Sport Horses. Seattle Blues is now a GELDING!! We made this descision as we downsize our breeding program. Blue will be a great addition to the sport horse world as a competition, foxhunting or pleasure mount. He has had extensive handling, ground work, line driving and has been ridden a couple of times with no problems at all. He loves to jump and is a powerhouse over bigger fences when free lunged. He has no health, soundness or behavior issues. |
