Highland Nights - stable name Blosse
Cahanagh’s Golden Boy (Western Boy) × Hawaii Nights (Porter Rhodes)
Blosse’s dam, Hawaii Nights, was a cross-country machine who successfully competed to CIC** level (the pre-2019 equivalent of today’s CCI3*-S level) produced by an amateur rider. Her damsire, Porter Rhodes, is the sire of Pippa Funnell’s Badminton ride Maya’s Hope.
Her sire, Cahanagh’s Golden Boy, is a Class 1 Connemara stallion by Western Boy.
Blosse has shown plenty of her mother’s enthusiasm and ability. Prior to injury she hacked extensively, was lightly schooled, had jumped around 80cm and had been cross-country schooling, which she thoroughly enjoyed. She is still green for her age and was not yet fully established.
Blosse is being offered primarily as a broodmare prospect following a previous injury to her hindquarters. The injury resulted from an accident with a jump filler, rather than through competition or general wear and tear.
Her full veterinary history is available and I am very happy to discuss everything openly with serious enquiries.
Blosse has a standard equine passport but is not currently registered with a specific breed or sport-horse studbook.
With her combination of proven eventing bloodlines, Connemara breeding, movement, type and temperament, she could be a really interesting prospect for someone looking to breed a quality event pony, working hunter or smart sport horse.
Blosse was bred by us and has been with us all her life. This is a very difficult decision, so finding her an experienced, knowledgeable and loving long-term home is extremely important.
