stud at Larkinglass Farm reasonably priced for breeders of performance
horses whether for race track, endurance, orienteering, showing
etc. During his race career spanning three years Vert Olive had
20 starts and 12 wins and 4 placings. As a 4 year old he had 7 starts
with 5 wins including the Al Waltherba Stakes at Kempton Park. At
5 years he had 6 starts and 6 wins which included the Zaabeel Stakes
at Kempton and the Qatar Sprint Championship at Goodwood. At 6 years
he went on to win the Al Futtain Trophy in Abu Dhabi.
He retired sound and is a beautifully made horse
which combined with his outstandingly kind nature makes him a big
favourite as a sire of riding horses. A number of Harwood mares
will be covered by him this season.He has sired many winners on
the race course and his offspring are making their mark at endurance.
His sire Elbing represents some of the finest sound strong horses
from Poland and his dam with her prepotent sire Manganate represents
some of the finest French racing lines.
