TSHA Classes Well Supported at Waratah Showjumping

Tara Madgwick - Tuesday August 27
Thoroughbred Sport Horse Association jumping classes at the big Waratah event at Sydney International Equestrian Centre last weekend were well supported with some terrific horses and riders competing for good prizemoney and a jockey winning one of the finals.

Citatous Spirit and Cameron Dignam won the 1m THSA Final at WaratahThe addition of these classes has added another dimension to the big jumping shows and it was great to see so many junior riders as well as adults competing on thoroughbreds.

Below are all the results with breeding from the 90, 1m, 1,10m and 1.20m finals.

Citatous Spirit, who won the 1m class is by one of the world's best sires in Invincible Spirit (IRE), who stands at the Irish National Stud at a fee of 120,000 euros.

He shuttled to Australia for four seasons at the start of his career and is best known here for siring brilliant sprinter I Am Invincible, who is now the most expensive sire in Australia standing at a fee this spring of $247,500. I Am Invincible set a new record last season for stakes-winners and winners and it would appear the athleticism of this sireline is not confined to the racetrack!

Citatous Spirit won three minor races and retired from the track in 2011, so has been honing his jumping skills for quite some time.
