About Kelseys Sports Horses

Kelseys Red Kite

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)

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.

Kelseys Mr Fox

Louis is our two year old out of Thistle, our Bazaars Exclusive (Welton Crackerjack) x Primitive Rising mare. His dad is the award winning Irish draught stallion, Skip and Sea, whose pedigree boasts Skippy, sire of the great Jumbo, and Sea Crest, sire of the great Cruising. He is certainly bred to event and we are really excited about what the future holds for him. He has 3 very expressive paces and can already really gallop!

Kelseys Springtide (Louis)

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"

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)

Percy is an honest, leg at each corner Irish Sports Horses, Richard has bought to produce for sale. He has a wonderful calm temperament, is very trainable, hacks out on his own etc. He is also very talented, and whilst the dressage is work in progress while he grows and strengthens, he has a correct and bold jump and loves his cross country. He would make a wonderful event/all rounder horse for a competitive amateur of young rider.

Casanova Lad (Percy)

Ridden by Bruce Haskell to 4* level. Long listed for Tokyo olympics. Kind nature and lovely attitude.

Amiro Sky

Thistle has been with us since she was a 2 year old and has been a proper family horse, ridden by all the family, and has competed up to BE100 before an injury ended her career as a sports horse. She is a tough little horse and a brilliant broodmare, with lovely expressive paces. Her breeding for producing eventers is impeccable being by Bazaars Exclusive (Ex-Welton Crackerjack) who is sire of B Exclusive, Lizzie Baugh's 4* home bred and numerous other eventers, all with superb trainability. Her dam is by the legendary Primitive Rising, he also has produced eventers competing with both amateurs and professionals. She is the dam of Louis (2021) and Cilla (2023), in whom we combine Welton Crackerjack, Primitive Rising, Skippy and Sea Crest! For 2024 she is in foal to the award-winning sire, Sylvester, who is renowned for passing his multi-talents on to his progeny. Exciting!!

Kelseys Thistle (Thistle)

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)

Flynn is one of our 2022 foals.  He has a superb temperament and is very straight and correct. We are very excited about him and as a result have decided to repeat the mating of Alice to LePrince des Bois for 2023.

Kelseys Red Admiral (Flynn)

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.

We are so pleased to welcome Helen as an owner of our exciting rising 5 Year old Archie (Future Dark Pleasure). Archie has 3 fabulous paces and huge scope over a jump. he also has a affable temperament and is very trainable. We still have a couple of shares in Archie available. 2024 will be very exciting!

Delighted to welcome Helen Pearson as an owner to our team
