BLOODLINES

WATCHAMACALLIT LS was an outstanding stallion by the stakes winning TB sire WATCHMAN. WATCHAMACALLIT LS is a superb jumping talent - he has an amazing quick action with his front legs keeping them well away from the jump. While extravagant in the air he gives over the jumps, he is still keen and showed no hesitation in the loosejumping. He is bold, careful and really tucks up those knees - all the things you need to produce top horses for eventing and jumping. Remember, he is 3/4 thoroughbred so has that "blood" that the overseas riders have found valuable in their top jumping horses.

 

WATCHMAN was a top racehorse with 10 wins from 1200 to 2450m including 2 Stakes wins & Aus $147,000. He was a very athletic horse with beautiful paces and excellent muscling. His pedigree is impeccable including AGRICOLA (dam sire of Brilliant Invader the sire of WEG Champion Eventer READY TEDDY and is of interest recently as the sire of the dam of NZ’s showjumper of the moment, DELPHI who placed 6th = in the World Cup finals) and to top NZ thoroughbred broodmare sire ONCIDIUM. A real bonus is that his female (bottom) line traces directly back to MAUREEN who was the dam of FURIOSO xx - acknowledged as the most influential TB sire used in warmblood breeding in Europe. His pedigree includes a similar cross of Precipitation as the great Furioso xx but with the added value of Hyperion in the dam line as well.

​

SOMETHING SPECIAL is from one of Longspring's top families. Her mother TABOO (by TRIBUNE) was the sister to 3 jumpers sold overseas - THE MINDER (J Cottle) to Japan; DOW JONES LS to California, USA and another young rider horse to Holland.​​​
