Aspen x The Temptress
Aspire is a lovely type of horse, with excellent performance breeding. Aspire’s breaking-in has been started by Gordon Bishop.
His dam, The Temptress was an advanced eventer, before being retired as a broodmare. Sire Aspen’s elastic movement and enormous jumping ability carried him to 2nd place in the 6yo jumping class at DJWTS and his pedigree features the proven jumping lines of Souvenir and Aachen. Souvenir has been a major influence on the jumping lines in Australia - his immediate progeny featured Mickey Mouse - ridden by Vicki Roycroft to 10th place at the World Championships Stock holm 1990, and further down the line Peppermint Grove, dual gold Olympic medallist with Gillian Rolton. Aachen is one of the most influential stallions to have been used in Australian performance horse breeding. He produced the internationally successful eventers Aava (WEG 2002) and Belcam Aaberdeen, as well as multiple FEI Dressage and World Cup Showjumping horses. Aachen’s sire, the legendary Argentinus (dec) is one of the world’s greatest sires and has produced Olympic competitors in both dressage and showjumping.
With this amazing breeding, Aspire R is sure to be another name to add to the history books. He is young and exciting - and waiting to take the competition scene by storm!
