Hunter stallion with over fence records for progeny

showjumper can tell you for sure, but I thought I read Apiro was only available frozen this year? Correct me if I’m wrong…

And I’m pretty sure Popeye only does frozen unless I’m just remembering that from when he was showing. That may have changed since he’s not actively campaigning.

Oh! I need to know this for sure!

Anyone know?

Sea Accounts only did one hunter show when he was 4 and then moved on to other disciplines, but his kids are proving themselves to be nice movers and good jumpers.

He has two (a 6 and 7 y.o. this year) who have won both won multiple championships at A shows on Long Island at up to 3’ and both have done well in 3’ hunter derbies. The younger one is consistently the hack winner. These are the only two currently competing in the hunters.

Most of the other kids are either eventing (another 7 y.o. was bought by an UL rider and is currently competing at Prelim) or headed that way when they are old enough.

He is being nominated for IHF this year and I expect that many more will end up in the hunter ring.

yes, for sure. It’s listed on both their sites-just checked

Yes, Apiro is only available via frozen this year since he will be out showing, but his frozen semen quality and conception rates are great.

Darn it SJ66, that may rule him out for me, I was going to email and ask you that…so glad to hear he’s out showing, that is great news and hope I can watch him go somewhere, but that I believe is bad news for me this year!!!

That’s too bad. :frowning: He will be available fresh again once he is retired from showing. I know that the thought of using frozen semen can be intimidating, so our frozen semen contract is written just like a fresh semen contract in that we offer a LFG and keep sending semen until you have a pregnancy.

Any chance he will be coming to Kentucky?? :yes:

Quite possibly! :smiley:

Oh I hope so! We LOVE our Apiro colt, at 18 months he is finally through the weird stage and showing glimpses of wonderfulness!

Palladio has kids in the hunter ring now and he has mulitiple wins in the INT Hunter Derby classes.

Many are showing with kids/ammys and we’ve not had huge foal crops every year so they are much more scattered and harder to find…lol…and with name changes I even sometimes have a hard time finding them…sad…

At least the ones we see locally are easy to keep track of…lol…some top finishes in Classics and wins in the childrens on a couple of them. I expect at least one in the big Derbies next year…fingers crossed…and a could more I need to track down!

:slight_smile:

Apiro’s son, Apyro, is competing in the 3’3" AOs with Summer this year. He is an import from Apiro’s first foal crop in Germany. Apiro’s oldest foal crop in North America are turning 3 this year, so Apyro is the only old enough to be out there doing his thing, but Apiro is back in the ring competing! :smiley:

Here are some North American based stallions who have had offspring in the hunter ring during the last couple of years (please correct me if I excluded or included someone inappropriately on the list).
