SILVERTHORN SHOTGUN

Shotgun is full brother to our very successfully performed gelding Carbine. After the loss of our sire Montcalm Luke the previous season, he arrived at a time when we were hoping for a colt from the great producing mare, Haydon Avril; and could possibly carry on the Luke bloodline. To our delight she produced this very flashy colt. Shotgun has shown been extensively during 2006-2009 with pleasing results.

During 2007 as a yearling he notched up 9 firsts, four reserve champions, four champions and a supreme ASH of the show. He is now being prepared for the 2008 season when he will make his debut in the ridden rings.

At Sydney Royal 2007 and still a yearling, he took part in the Australian Stock Horse Society parade under saddle, in front of thousands and thousands of people and conducted himself like an old stager.

We used Shotgun over a limited number of mares in 2008 and are very much looking forward to the arrival of his first foals this season.

He made his debut under saddle in 2009 and with his lovely soft movement, athleticism and presence has won a substantial number of hack and working classes as well as a champion working stallion and a reserve champion ASH hack.

"Shottie" is a lovely natured horse, with a wealth of personality and is a favourite with everyone who sees him. He is a deep chocolate in colour and would measure about 15hh.
