Saracen Hill TB

Saracen Hill is a big, free moving thoroughbred that show-jumped to grade C, winning many competitions on the way, including a Guinness qualifier for 5 yr olds. He has a very sweet, trainable nature which he passes on to his offspring.

By Step Together, the sire of Don’t Step Back, Patricia Donegan’s cracking event horse that carried her to 5th place at the 2000 Olympics in Sydney, and Irish Patriot who competed at 4*** level under Eric Smiley, Saracen Hill, out of a small number of mares of varying quality and abilities, has sired a number of useful eventers and show-jumpers, the most famous being the very talented Glenhill Gold who now competes at 3** level; voted Horse of the Year in 2009 by Eventing Ireland;winner at Tyrella in 2010 and in 2011 won the 3 star event at Ballindenisk. (He has his sights on Badminton)'
On the show-jumping circuit Saracen Hill .has a number of horses competing under amateur riders including Cyprus Hill out of a Laughton’s Flight dam and Saracen Cruise out of a Cruising mare, a clear indication that mares out of proven performance lines breed well to this stallion.
