Condios a "Top 10 Stallion" at the Sales
Condios, Morningside Stud's showjumping star, continued
to show his value as a sire when his name appeared in the Irish
Farmers Journal's list of "The top 10
stallions at the sales."
The
list contains the names of the sires in Ireland whose progeny
sold for the top 10% at public auction. Condios is the youngest
approved stallion on the exclusive list.
It
is not just Condios foals that sold for good money in 2002. In
the spring a 2-year-old stallion by Condios out of a May Sherif
mare sold for euro23,000. This is reputed to be the largest sum
ever paid for a 2-year-old sport horse in Ireland.
Condios
(Coriano x Landgraf I), born in 1995, is approved by eight studbooks
in seven countries on three continents, including the Oldenburg
Verband, Danish
Warmblood Society, and Irish Horse Board. In 2003 Condios will
build on his victories and placings in 1.50 m. classes in 2002
by jumping Nations Cup classes
for Denmark under Henrik Gundersen.
