About Kelseys Sports Horses

Alice is a broodmare. She is a super stamp of a horse, “leg at each corner”, correct conformation and a tough constitution, but with enough blood and kind temperament is an excellent broodmare. She has had 3 foals with us, all by LePrince des Bois (Freddie, Flynn and Felix). These boys are all proving to be trainable and have a kind, willing temperament. Alice in foal for 2024 to the promising young stallion, Jacondrik. He combines the blood lines of Jaguar Mail, Contendro and Heraldik and together with Alice's lines of Mill Law and Coever's Diamond Boy, the foal should be a top prospect!

Alice, "Wonderland Alice"

Kelseys Painted Lady (Mabille)

We are very excited about our broodmare, Holly. She has produced 3 stunning, quality foals, all with a trainable and kind temperament (Archie, Mavis and Mabille). She passes on floating paces combined with a natural ability to jump and is descended from some of the best thoroughbred lines in the world. In 2023, she has had a proper supermodel, Mae, by Chacco Bay, born on the day Tina Turner died. She is having a break in 2024.

Future Dark Art (Holly)

Kelseys Mr Fox

We bought Heidi as a 2 year old from her breeder, Diana Scott, who stood the great stallion Ben Faerie. Inevitably, Heidi's pedigree reads like a Who's Who of eventing. Her great granddam is full sister to the legendary 5* and Olympic/European/World champion, Priceless. Other eventing greats in her family include Welton Louis, who was an advanced eventer and competed up to Prix St George dressage with Pammy Hutton, It's Without Doubt sired numerous eventers including the 5* Doubtless, William, Abbeyside Mist was an advanced eventing mare a descendant of the legends Sky Boy and King of Diamonds, and of course she has the home stallion Ben Faerie in her family tree twice (4x4). She has a kind temperament and a trainable attitude.  Heidi is in foal to the Group 2 winner, thoroughbred stallion, Mildenberger, for 2024.

Brendonhill Highley Probable (Heidi)

Traditional Irish Sports Horse by Jackaroo (full brother to Zara Tindall's 2012 Olympic and WEG horse, High Kingdom) and Karen O' Connor's 2008 Olympic horse, Mandiba), out of a Clover Brigade mare with Sadlers Wells also in the mix. She is 88% thoroughbred and appears to be very willing, trainable and has a wonderful temperament.

Kelseys Skylark (Wilma)

Ruby is a talented young mare who has shown her abilities in dressage and showjumping. However she was not happy going off the yard and lost her confidence. So we have given her a new job as a recipient mare, which she has definitely taken to!  Ruby is carrying a very precious package for 2024, an embryo taken from Wilma (Kelseys Skylark) by the exciting young showjumping stallion, Chacco Bay.


Kelseys Ballyhoe Lass (Ruby)

Teddy is an exceptionally well balanced 5 year old with 3 correct superb paces and an impressive jump, his lovely trainable temperament is something that will take him to the top. His breeding cries out "top event horse",  with 3 legendary eventing sires in his blood, Grafenstolz, Heraldik and Welton Crackerjack.

Teddy was entered into the British Futurity eventing section in 2020 and came 3rd nationally in the 2 year old section. He has a very exciting future ahead of him. He is being produced for sale by Richard and we would love to find some syndicate owners for him so he can stay here!

HVS Royale Graffiti (Teddy)

Archie is our very handsome but leggy rising 5 year old, out of Holly (Future Dark Art) by the award winning  and life graded stallion, Future Guilty Pleasure. Archie has a wonderful temperament, 3 correct paces and a superb jump. He is going to be a big chap so we will take him slowly in his education. He was awarded a Gold in his Futurity Assessment in 2020.  We are now backing him and are also looking for syndicate owners for him who would like to be part of his journey right from the very start! His sire is now competing at Intermediate level Eventing so we have high hopes for Archie.

Future Dark Pleasure (Archie)

We bought Annie in April 2021. Her owner was unable to look after her any more and we were very happy to give her a permanent home. She is a beautiful mare who has had a difficult start in her early life, before her previous owner rescued her. She is by the great eventing and showjumping sire OBOS Quality 004 who competed at Grand Prix and Nations Cup showjumping. His offspring include showjumping Olympian Castlefield Eclipse and Nations Cup mare Lisona. In eventing his progeny are renowned for massive paces and being super brave. They include Pippa Funnell's MGH Grafton Street and Piggy March's Brookfield Quality, with numerous others also.
Annie's dam is by the great thoroughbred Mister Lord who has produced top event horses worldwide. Annie has enough TB blood (65%) to breed some super eventers and show jumpers.  We haven't seen her jump, but know she can clear at least 1.2m over an electric fence without touching it!
Her foals are Bobby (by the connemara Glencarrig Tempest) and Ziggy (by the prolific showjumping sire and Nations Cup winner, Billy Congo). She is having a break in 2024.

Kelseys Star Quality (Annie)

Mavis is another of our lockdown foals, born in May 2020. She is a very elegant and beautiful filly with a lovely nature, touched with a bit of sassy spirit, just like her mum (Holly). She has 3 floating paces and a big jump! We know this as once walking out to the field with her mum, she decided to pop a 90cm dry stone wall with a 1.10m drop on the other side!

Kelseys Song Thrush (Mavis)

We bought Annie, Bobby's mum in foal in April 2021 from June Hunter who was looking for a good home for Annie. In July 2021, Bobby came along and what a stunning foal he is. Bold and brave from the outset, he is a very straight foal with excellent conformation. His breeding is exceptional, his sire being the young connemara stallion, Glencarrig Tempest, who is full brother to Glencarrig Dolphin, who is represented GB in the European Eventing Championships in 2022. Their pedigree boasts the legend, Ashfield Bobby Sparrow, who Bobby is named after. 
His mum,  Annie, is by the great and brave top eventing sire OBOS Quality 004 out of a thoroughbred mare by Mister Lord. He has a willing, kind nature and a fantastic bold jump. 

Kelseys Stardust (Bobby)

Very excited to announce the arrival of a new broodmare Amiro Sky.
Tiggi competed at 4* level very successfully by the New Zealand rider Bruce Haskell. We are looking forward to what the future holds for her as one of our broodmares as she has excellent breeding and the temperament and attitude to match.

Amiro Sky
