0908 Lot 15 - Rio R

Chestnut filly, 01/02/09 - August 2009 auction
Regardez Moi x Java
On account of Ryans

Rio R is a spectacular young filly with potential to set the world on fire. She is by Regardez Moi, Australian Grand Prix Dressage Champion, just back from the World Cup Final in Las Vegas. Rio R’s dam Java R is by Jive Magic, who has just won his first Grand Prix scalp. Grand-dam is Marge, by Richmeed Medallion, again a Grand Prix dressage horse and by the famous May Sherif, still the only stallion to sire two World Cup dressage winners (see Rainmaker R). Lilac is a full sister to stallion Stirling Liberty who was a World Cup showjumper with Australian Olympian Gavin Chester at just 7 years. Perhaps more important, Stirling Liberty is the sire of Snowy River Blackwood, top Grand Prix horse with Di Jenkyn. Java R is a full sister to Justin Thyme R, sold to Olympian Mary Hanna; to Jiminy Cricket R, bought by FEI dressage rider Michelle Cunningham; and to Jude R, bought by international Grand Prix rider Sue Hearn. Plus there is another spectacular brother, Jack in the Box R. Rio R is the first filly of this line to be sold - Ryans have retained a full sister. Rio R is going to be a very valuable broodmare or an absolutely state-of-the-art, top-of-the-range competition dressage horse.
