BREEDING PROFILE
SIRE - ORIELTON ARISTOCRAT is one of the great sires of recent years

Aristocrat's progeny have excelled under saddle as Lead-Reins, First Riddens & M&M Ridden - Many of his offspring have taken championships at the UK's leading shows including The Horse of the Year Show & The Royal International Horse Show

Aristocrat sadly passed away in 2003, thus Spycatcher offers an exciting opportunity to use these outstanding proven bloodlines

 


DAM - ROTHERWOOD PENNY ROYALE is from a long line of champions. Penny herself was a huge winner & her dam, Rotherwood Honeysuckle was one of the biggest winning mares of her time including Royal Welsh Champion.

Penny Royale's sire, KESTON ROYAL OCCASION needs no introduction as one of the most influential sires within the recent history of the Welsh breed.

Penny has bred numerous Champion Bs and Spycatcher is carrying on the family line & producing top class stock - See above

Penny Royale has also now retired from breeding, thus Spycatcher offers an exciting opportunity to use this combination of irreplaceable & outstanding bloodlines

PERFORMANCE

ROTHERWOOD SPYCATCHER has an outstanding show record

He has been an extraordinarily consistent winner at top shows throughout his life, from a yearling to a 10 year old, including:

  • 1st & Second Reserve Youngstock Champion Royal Welsh Show 1995

  • Supreme Champion M&M Ponies UK 1996

  • Youngstock Champion & Reserve Male Champion Royal Welsh Show 1997 - GOLD MEDAL WINNER

  • Wins at The Royal Show, West Midlands Stallion Show (twice), PUK, NPS Champs, 3 Counties, Devon County, Midland Counties, Kent County

Now retired from the in-hand show ring with nothing left to prove - Spycatcher has had a successful career under saddle with excellent results in HOYS & Olympia qualifiers including Res Champion Olympia qualifier Breed Show 2001

Spycatcher has started Novice Workers and is proving to have an enormous and naturally stylish and athletic jump being the winner of the Novice M&M WHP class at the NPS Spring Festival 2006 - He is also competing dressage at Novice level with a child with great success.
