Spyder's Sire Young Prospect RID was a grade one life approved Registered Irish Draught Stallion. YP was successfully NASTA performance tested to Grade 2, he was regularly hunted and had BSJA winnings.
Young Prospect’s youngstock have been going from strength to strength: one has been accepted into the Whitakers’ show jumping yard, another is heading for HOYS and a number have snapped up supreme championships recently. In addition, HM the Queen has repeatedly used Young Prospect for covering mares.
Spyder is the only purebred colt left in the world by YP. YP was brother to International event horse Blarney Badger & International Show Jumper Rathlin Star, as well as being a sire of numerous successful young event, show jumping and show horses.
