This spring Kinsale Farms welcomed two new additions to our herd. Kinsale's Bonnie Las, an Irish Draught filly and Kinsale's Rebel Las, an Irish Sport horse filly. Both babies are beautiful and healthy. During these hot summer days they are fun to watch as they grow into their sweet and playful personalities.

As spring approaches, Kinsale Farms is gearing up for what promises to be another outstanding season. We are expecting two foals, one purebred due in June, and a sport horse in April, both of who are for sale.
Angus will begin his show season in April, and has a very limited number of breedings left for 2008! Also, Oreo has been started under saddle and is expected to join Angus at some dressage shows this summer. Click here to see the first photos of Oreo with a rider!

We are delighted to announce that Angus has won several end of the year awards for his performance during 2007. He was named the IDHSNA Year End Awards Level 1 Dressage Champion and the Level 2 In-Hand Reserve Champion. He was also named SWVADA Intro Level Champion with an average score of 72%.

Breeding information for the 2008 season can be found at the bottom of his page. Kinsale Farms is proud to be standing the only approved stallion to carry on the amazing mare family of the late Bonnie Belle Supreme RID. Angus is also one of only two approved purebred stallions by the renowned stallion O'Leary's Irish Diamond RID. He carries some of the most impressive and best performance lines in the Irish Draught breed.

Kinsale Farms is incredibly pleased to announce that in Illinois at the inspections held at the 2007 IDHS(NA) National Show, Angus (shown above waiting for his inspection) was passed and is now a fully registered and approved Irish Draught breeding stallion! Angus was the only stallion passed at the Illinois inspections, and went on for the duration of the show to become Intro Level Champion, Training Level Reserve Champion, Overall Dressage Reserve Champion, AND Reserve Champion Supreme Performance Champion out of all the purebreds, along with winning and placing in several other classes! Angus' page, the awards page, and his photo's page have all been updated with his accomplishments from the past several months.







Also, Ruby made her showing debut at the Nationals, winning the Purebred Dressage Prospect (0-3) class and coming in second in her Purebred Fillies class. She received much praise from judges, exhibitors, and spectators alike on her wonderful temperament and obedience for such a young filly.
