STALLIONS

INTRODUCING the only Registered Irish Draught (R.I.D.) stallion (listed by IDHSNA) in California:

   BRIDON BEALE STREET
"Liam"

Liam and Connie at the Horse Expo, June 2011.  We ended up without jumps for our demo, so we used what we had.

Beautiful new portrait of Liam just completed at the end of 2010, by Christine Obers.  
For more information about  Chris and her artwork, email her at chrisobers@gmail.com, or call her directly:  209.535.2956.

At 16.3 hands tall, Bridon Beale Street, "Liam," represents the best qualities of the next generation of RID stallions.  His sleek and supple conformation, great temperament, and unbelievably powerful jumping ability makes him an ideal sire for Irish Sport Horses.  Liam is a graceful and sweet horse, easy to be around, and his offspring are following in his footsteps.  They have been a joy to work with - they have his same great temperament.  

Liam's eventing career:  
2007 -- Liam in his first two events he came in first and second, and qualified in THREE different divisions (levels) for championships.
2008 --  Liam qualified for training championships again for 2008, ending up in third place overall. 
2009 --  By fall 2009, Liam had run 20 events without a cross country jump penalty, and finished the year at the Galway Training Three Day Event.
2010 -- Liam moves up to Preliminary and gets a second at Open Preliminary at his first outing - Woodside Horse Trials.
2011 - Liam is qualified for his first One Star, and enters Galway.  An unfortunate accident to his rider prevents him from starting x-co.
He competes and finishes the Preliminary Challenge at Woodside Horse Park, May 2011, with no Cross country faults.

 He loves to please, and he loves to jump!

 As of Spring 2010, Liam has had 21 events with never a cross-country jump penalty.
Liam is by Mountain Pearl, a famous sire of event and jumping horses, who has been asked to come back to Ireland to stand because they are desiring his bloodlines.  Liam is the perfect outcross to King of Diamonds or Clover Hill mares, and will cross with thoroughbred, warmblood and grade mares beautifully to make Irish Sport Horses

We have a few mares in foal to Liam for sale or lease, call for availability. 

His stud fee for 2011 is still only $1200, and that includes the $250 booking fee.  We do the AI right on the ranch for no extra charge.  Shipping and vet work extra.

 As of spring of 2011, Liam has over 75 offspring on the ground.  Visit the
  OFFSPRING  page to see some of his babies.  And there are still a few on this photos page.  We will add more as we get the young stock out to more of the FEH classes!

EXTRA! Liam babies place 1st, 2nd and 4th at the very first Future Event Horse classes held on the west coast.  And Liam's Bonnie Lass took Champion Yearling for 2009.  Blue Suede Shoes took top yearling colt (Liam (Bridon Beale Street) x Irish Draught mare.)  Liam offspring take the top placings at the Championships in the two year old class in 2010, and the 2- and 3-year old classes in 2011!

GOLDPASSER
    

Sadly, we have no semen left from "Gold"

GOLDPASSER (TB) (passed away 1/18/03) We miss you, big guy.

"Gold" had all the bone, size, temperament and athletic talent a mare could ask for in a mate.
He has many siblings on the Grand Prix jumping circuit, and his own offspring are eventing and winning!
We may have a few youngsters available by Gold.  Call or email for availability.
