The Irish Sport Horse Ireland
has been renowned as a horse breeding country for centuries. Now the
military buying commissions of other days have gone and been replaced
by riders from the modem equestrian disciplines.The Irish eventer has topped the World Breeding Federation for ten successive years. Irish showjumpers won gold at the 2001 European championships and captured a record ten Nations Cups in 2000. Horse production is a way of life in Ireland. The national herd of brood mares is relatively small compared to that of other countries, only seven thousand or so active mares, but the standard of horses produced matches that of the great horse breeding nations. This book presents the Irish Sport Horse at its best. The history is here, the back breeding, the stallions of today, the Irish horses which have left Irish shores and gone out to conquer the great competitive arenas of the world. It should be on every horse lover's bookshelf. Price: €18 / Stg£14 / USD$24 - Click to Buy |
