Derryglen Finnegan is a beautiful big grey stallion, with excellent conformation, and a wonderful, kind, easy temperament. He has an athletic, scopey jump with excellent natural technique and fabulous movement. Internationally, Finnegan jumped up to 1.60m, before his sporting career unfortunately finished early due to injury. His younger siblings are continuing to progress in the sport, notably the promising 11 year old gelding Le Boss who is confidently jumping 1.55m and looks set to grow in the sport.

Finnegan comes from very strong bloodlines on both sides with the godfathers of Holstein breeding such as Accord, Cassini 1 and Joost. It is no wonder when you study Finnegan’s breeding that he has so much scope and natural technique. Finnegan has 1.60m jumping in his genes from all directions. Finnegan produces stunning big foals that are very correct, with extravagant movement and an excellent temperament.

Finnegan’s sire, Eurocommerce Singapore, jumped 1.60m himself, while is grand dam on his mother’s side, Elysee 11, bred two 1.60m horses. Finnegan’s grandsire, Cassini 1, jumped 1.60m himself and bred 160 horses that jumped 1.60m. Finnegan’s great grandsire, Joost, jumped 1.50m himself and bred 14 horses that jumped 1.60m.

Signapore is the sire of Ermindo W, the top horse of Swedish team rider Rolf-Goran Bengtsson, which was his mount for the European Championships in 2021, and also competed in many 5* Nations Cups and Grand Prix’s. Although Singapore died at 9 years old, his short breeding career was very successful, he bred 4 horses jumping 1.60m, further 4 horses jumping 1.50m – 1.55m and many horses jumping 1.45m, along with breeding several eventers (up to CCI 4*) and dressage horses.

Singapore’s sire, Acorado 1, jumped 1.50m and bred 49 horses that jumped 1.60m, while his exceptional grand dam, Doreen X111, bred a 1.60m horse and 3 horses that jumped 1.50m. Singapore’s grandsire, Cantus, jumped 1.60m and bred 48 horses that jumped 1.50m – 1.60m.
