Treo Eile has announced a new partnership with Horse Sport Ireland for the upcoming breeding season, launching a pilot initiative designed to safeguard Thoroughbred mares by creating further opportunities beyond their racing and breeding careers.
The Treo Eile Thoroughbred Broodmare Scheme is designed to provide an additional pathway for registered Thoroughbred broodmares, supporting their transition into sport horse breeding.
Dr Sonja Egan, Head of Breeding, Innovation and Development at Horse Sport Ireland, said, “We are delighted to support Treo Eile's pilot scheme, which aims to encourage the use of quality Thoroughbred mares in sport horse breeding.
“Thoroughbred mares have long been vital contributors to Ireland's foundation bloodlines within the Irish Sport Horse and Traditional Irish Horse populations. They have also played a key role in Ireland's success in the World Breeding Federation for Sport Horses rankings and at the highest levels of international sport under FEI.”
