Breeding the best - Breen Equestrian opens state-of-the-art stud
Showjumping team Breen Equestrian has expanded their business by launching a luxurious new breeding facility close to their base at Hickstead in West Sussex.
Pook Bourne Stud is a state-of-the-art breeding premises with space to accommodate up to 85 mares and young horses.
Nine stallions will stand at the stud, including prolific showjumping winners Golden Hawk, Can Ya Makan and Clyde VA. The aim is to breed around a dozen foals each year under the Breen Equestrian prefix, while the stud will also cater to clients who wish to send their mares to the stud with the aim of breeding their own potential superstars.
Breen Equestrian is run by Irish international showjumper Shane Breen and his wife Chloe, who already have a superb reputation for breeding, producing and selling top class sport horses.
Fellow showjumper Greg Le Gear, a qualified AI technician, is the Stud Manager at Pook Bourne Stud and is in charge of the day-to-day running of the breeding side of the business.
Shane Breen commented: “I’m very proud and excited that Breen Equestrian can offer some of the world’s best stallions, as well as facilities that are second to none.”
