SR Trackerjack (Cracker) is purpose bred by Chris Hopkins at Merriwa, NSW, to event and is already winning at intro level. Cracker has three nice paces, is steady and very trainable on the flat. He is lovely to sit on and is already schooling more advanced movements due to his fantastically trainable nature. He is also very bold over fences and is already easily jumping over 1m. He has had extensive cross country schooling and is confident with arrowheads, water, ditches, etc. He has huge scope over fences and at the same time is careful with good technique. Cracker has also been out to several straight dressage days and has never come below second place, scoring between 68% and 73% on each occasion. He has regularly been out to Jump Clubs and is really confident and ready to step up and become a serious event horse. SR Trackerjack’s sire (Hopscotch) is by Croflea Artisan who is a famous NZ jumping line that has produced many successful eventers. On the dam line is Don Ramiro who is mainly known as a dressage sire, but has also influenced the bloodlines of several successful eventers such as William Wordsworth and Loxley who were both sold to Emily King (daughter of Mary King) in the UK, and also Don Panache campaigned by Stuart Tinney who was also sold overseas after a successful career in Australia. Fairy Floss who is by Double Cream, has also made a huge contribution to eventing in Australia being on the dam side of Stirling Sprite who has produced many FEI level eventers (such as Hunter Hill, Adelaide Hill, Orchard Hill, Nottage Hill and Bonza Troy) as well as being a successful competition horse himself, jumping at World Cup level and eventing at 3* level. Cracker is really bred for the job.
