Warmblood Mares

Jive's Delight R

Sire: Jive Magic (imp)
Dam: Diamond Delight
(Don Ramiro/Salute)

This is a stunning young state-of-the-art broodmare/riding horse specifically bred by Ryans to produce Olympic competition dressage horses. Ryans have a full sister, Jumping Janie R, already producing top-priced foals. Jive’s Delight R has already produced a Regardez Moi filly, retained by Ryans, and is in foal to Fiji R, due October
2010.

Jive’s Delight is a full sister to Jingle Jangle, in work with Fiona McNaught and schooling the advanced work. Jive’s Delight’s brother, Jesse James, was bought by Australian international dressage rider Matthew Dowsley. Jive Magic, the sire, is blasting his way through the Grand Prix classes and is putting his hand up for the Australian team at the World Equestrian Games in the USA this year.

Diamond Delight carries the Donnerhall and Pik Bube bloodlines through Don Ramiro. Snowshoes carries the Salute blood which is probably the most influential bloodline in Australia today when it comes to Grand Prix international dressage horses like Victory Salute (currently Australian Grand Prix Champion), Stirling Stilton and DP Christopher.

Argentille Ivanka

Sire: Ilkay (Imp)
Dam: Valerie
SOD: Valuta (Imp)

Ivanka has done extremely well in both the dressage arena and the show ring, owing to her beautiful looks and lovely movement and conformation. She stands at 168.5cm and is classified as a Head Stud Book mare with the AWHA. Ivanka has a lovely quiet temperament and is a pleasure to ride. She is currently training at novice/elementary level dressage and at the 2003 AWHA Gala Day NSW she won the 4/5yr old ridden class in addition to being reserve champion led, coming runner up to her son, Bellingara Ferrero.

Argentille Barbarella

Sire: Biathlon (Imp)
Dam: Trimba Honour SOD: Kilof McOhl (Imp)

Barbarella is pictured here as a 2yr old, after winning Reserve Champion led Warmblood at the 2002 Sydney Royal Easter Show. She was awarded this place over the imported stallion, Carbine, by Carbid.

It was a tremendous loss to our stud when Barbarella's life was cut short in an accident in 2005. She had a beautiful nature and quiet temperament and was a super mover, showing engagement and expression in all paces. A truly outstanding mare with so much potential.

However, we have some consolation, before Barbarella died, she left us with a beautiful filly foal, Bellingara Fleurina.

Sire: Kilof McOhl
Dam: Trimba Perousle SOD: Perousle xx

Honour is a beautiful black mare with plenty of chrome. She has excellent conformation with well boned straight legs, short back, deep girth and an elegant neck. Beautiful movement with particularly good hock action. Honour is also quiet natured, being a pleasure to handle. Honour is the dam of Barbarella, one of our best mares.
