Horse – Presented to overall winner from classes 905, 906 & 907
We imported Genius a licensed Hanoverian stallion in 1984, previously we were breeding ponies and park hacks. We
were wanting to produce a modern warmblood who could produce dressage, showjumpers, eventers and show
hack/hunters. Quite a big ask and yes he did produce Advanced eventers, champion show hacks, a number of Grand
Prix showjumpers and Grand Prix dressage including Louisa Hill and Gabana who went to Athens Olympics. His mares
are well sought after as they seem to cross well with most stallions – Marlene Parkinson.
Age of horse is as of 1 August prior year.
