Mojo is a beautifully bred British warmblood who came to us as a very green rising 5 year old. Having never stepped hoof off the yard she was born on, we put a lot of time into preparing Mojo for the start of her eventing career and the 5 year old Burghley Young Event Horse Classes.

We knew we had found a star when Mojo won her first ever one day event on her dressage score of 28. She then went on to compete successfully in the Bramham Young Event Horse class where she was awarded the highest dressage score of the day. Mojo’s other notable achievements include a double clear and 4th place in the highly competitive EMDG open class and gaining a place in the finals of the Rydale County Show Burghley Young Event Horse class.

Unfortunately, as Mojo was ready to start her 6 year old eventing campaign she fractured her pedal bone due to a freak accident in her stable. She was admitted to Newmarket Equine Hospital for 3 months and underwent surgery. Her injury has now completely healed but we have chosen to breed our stars of the future from this very talented mare as she is too special to risk.

Her breeding consists mostly of graded KWPN bloodlines combined with Oldenburg and Hannovarian in the sire lines. Mojo decsends from a very impressive dam line which includes numerous 1.60m show jumpers and Grand Prix dressage horses. Her dam Uralinde J.J, who competed to 1.30m SJ, is by the legendary Metall who competed successfully up to Prix St. George and has produced several Grand Prix dressage horses, most notably Carl Hester’s Uthopia. Metall has also produced top show jumpers including Upper Star who placed 3rd in the 2013 Gijon Nations Cup and Saveur who placed 6th in the Tripoli World Cup along with 4* international event horse Urzan who placed 2nd in the Houghton Hall 3* and 3rd in the Barbury Castle 2*. Mojo’s dam is maternal sister to the 1.60m jumping stallion Realist.

Mojo’s grand dam, Kyralinde, was awarded the prestigious KWPN gradings of “Preferent”, “Keur” and “Prestatie” in recognition of the quality and achievement in sport of both herself and her offspring.

Mojo’s sire is the famous Argento, proven 1.60m showjumper, Elite graded stallion, and the top ride of John Whitaker who was crowned the best showjumping horse in the world in 2015, topping the WBFSH rankings. Argento already has numerous offspring competing at 1.50m level including two 1.60m jumpers. Argento’s maternal sister is the dam of 1.60m showjumper Arakan.

Mojo’s Grandsire, Arko III, is a multiple 5* Grand Prix winner and the former top ride of Nick Skelton. He descends from one of the most influential dam lines in Europe. His full sister, Amati P.M.S. is a top broodmare for Haras De Hus and has produced the licensed stallions Tsunami De Hus (1.60m winner) and Anibale De Hus (1.60m). Arko III is also the sire of the 2018 Hickstead 5* winner SFS Aristio.

Hope House Bucks Fizz sired by Numero Uno (Libero H x Lord Calando x Ahorn Z)
