Once in a lifetime opportunity to buy amazing mare who has made many dreams come true and ready to give her next jockey more of the same!
Fathers Compromise (Promise) is a 2011 16.3hh Irish sport horse mare by Shannondale Sarco out of a Courage mare. She has 118 BE points.
She has won at every level from BE 90 up to Intermediate and 2* initially with a keen amateur and more recently, a Junior rider who took her from 100 to where she is now which really speaks volumes about her temperament as she was his step up from ponies. Together they have achieved so much, a highlight being winning a team gold medal at the Junior Europeans in 2022! She also finished 4th individually completing on her dressage score and went on to step up to 3*S and take 5th in the YR class at Cornbury. They have many top 10 placings and won a 2* and have been clear XC in both their 3* runs most recently at Kelsall April ‘24. She has the scope, ability and trainability to go on with ambitious rider, or equally she will be happy teaching another junior/amateur rider the ropes.
Promise is really consistent in her dressage and always in the top few after the first phase, she is very rideable, markable and correct. She also has a BD record to elementary level.
Her jumping record speaks for itself, she is careful and talented over a fence, keeping a good natural rhythm and tries hard for her jockey. Her XC record is impeccable, she looks for the flags, has good footwork and really loves her job as all videos show! She is really reliable and always brings her jockey home safe with a smile on their face.
Day to day she is the kindest mare to have around, never rude and easy to do everything with, absolutely no hang ups. Hacks alone or in company and no vices. Super 5* bloodlines on both sides and so a great breeding prospect further down the line.
Genuine sale of a very special horse who is fit, sound and out competing with lots more to give. Owned by same person since coming from Ireland as a 4yo, so all history known and 10* home is essential and would love to stay in touch. Many videos/pics available
