As breeding season almost comes to an end for us we are really excited to have just got a foal heartbeat from our Traditional Irish Mare, Ballykelly Debbies Belle (Emperor Augustus xx/Farney Clover/Clover Hill).

We crossed her with the legendary 1.60 showjumping stallion LIVELLO who has bred many top showjumpers and eventers, standing at Belmont House Stud, who was ridden by our friend Cameron Hanley and represented 🇮🇪 on many occasions.

With over 80% blood “Bella” is breeding quality foals with a super sweet temperament, rideability, jump and incredible movement.

Like with every breeder we are so looking forward to seeing what this cross will produce, hoping it will be what we have aimed for and most importantly a live healthy foal, due 03/05/2025 🙏😇

Thanks to TRM Equine Nutrition and TopSpec and all the team who support us in our breeding programme.

Well the 4am start paid off yesterday. Our homebred Traditional Irish Mare Ballykelly Jasmine out of Ballykelly Hi Hope (Big Sink Hope xx/Salluceva xx/Triggerero xx) won the Open Half-bred Heavyweight Broodmare Class and then went on to take a super win in a very strong Horse Sport Ireland & Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine Supreme Broodmare Championship at Charleville Agricultural show. It was wonderful to have Dad and brother Gordon come down from Clare to be with us. A very special day all round 💚

Thanks to TRM Equine Nutrition and TopSpec for the best nutritional support and to Carr & Day & Martin Ireland for helping to have Jas shining on the day 👏🤩😍

Special package arrived at from Carr & Day & Martin Ireland🙏 with a fabulous selection of products to get the horses show prepped!

I’ve been using since the 1980’s with my father in Co Clare and I have always loved it. It is the best and the horses look gleaming with it.

How times have moved on and now they have a whole collection for different coloured horses there is amazing choice. The Dream Coat show shine is excellent and when spraying it doesn’t make that squeaky sound that young horses hate. So too is the Stain Master, in fact all Carr & Day & Martin products are quality, they have stood the test of time.

I am delighted to use them on my horses. Thank you 🤩😍

An emotional first show of the 2024 season, Mum we were thinking of you, but a good one and great to see everyone again as the long journey to Balmoral Show paid off.

Ballykelly Jasmine took second in the Middle/Heavyweight Broodmare Class with her first foal at foot who also took second in his C**t Foal Class.

Ballykelly Take Five fondly known as “Pete” is a 75% blood c**t foal by the 2023 Dublin Horse Show Croker Cup TB Champion Stallion Gibeon, standing with Barbara Hatton at Slyguff Stud.

In the Mare Championship we won a Special Prize for the Best Homebred Mare. Ballykelly Jasmine is a 3rd generation, Traditional Irish homebred mare with 50% TB, by the Grand Prix Showjumping ID stallion Gortfree Hero and out of our prolific show champion mare Ballykelly Hi Hope whose damline goes back six generations to old Irish Thoroughbreds before you get to the Irish Draught Stallion Young Ireland (1960).

And to cap it all off Ballykelly Jasmine is confirmed back in foal to Gibeon for 2025 🙏

Ballykelly Jasmine has TRM Equine Nutrition for all breeding needs and is fed on TopSpec 🙌
