“Q” is a stunning 6-year-old (28/12/19), 17hh gelding with exceptional show jumping bloodlines.

Pedigree & Lineage:

Q’s sire, Clarity GNZ, comes from a distinguished lineage—by Clearway out of Santana GNZ, whose pedigree includes Casall and Lux Z. Santana GNZ successfully competed up to 1.40m, and Clarity GNZ himself is known for his outstanding movement and jumping ability, making a name for himself in both sport and breeding.

On the dam’s side, Glenara Question is by Vivant van de Heffinck, a renowned 1.60m show jumper, out of Quintana van den Bosrand (by Heartbreaker). This places Q’s dam within BWP Prestatiestam 13, a top performance bloodline that has produced several licensed stallions, including Conquistador, Utrillo van de Heffinck, and Quindoctro. Additionally, his maternal half-sister is the dam of elite jumpers competing at 1.50m–1.60m.

Training & Temperament:

Q was purchased as a foal from Borderview Sporthorses by McLean Sport Horses and has been extensively handled since day one. He has completed a thorough starting program and is proving to be a highly talented jumper. He is currently jumping 1.10 at home and is well-educated on the flat with flying changes established.
He is easy to float, trim/shoe, wash, and has no vices. Q will require an experienced rider to develop his full potential in the show jumping ring. He is ready to compete.

Q is ACE registered and comes with a passport.

I can’t thank McLean Sport Horses enough for starting Sprocket. From the first message inquiry, to the final handover I can not fault our experience. Making a decision of where to send a horse to be started, is often difficult and this was no different for Sprocket. Sprocket has a unique personality but one that I didn’t want to loose in the process of starting his ridden career.

As Sprocket worked through McLean’s program with his 2-4 week visits with Rikke and Alistair, I could see Sprocket’s gradual progress. Between his visits, he always came home in beautiful condition with a coat that was shiny and full of dapples. From regular updates to watching Alistair and Rikke ride and then finally my turn to ride -
I had only waited 4 years for this day! Sprocket was solid and safe in his training and I felt well supported with Rikke and Alistair’s coaching.

Sprocket has now been home for 4 weeks and we have been out to our local riding clubs and last week to 90 mile beach where we have continued to build our riding partnership. He has continued to feel very solid with any challenge I put to him. I once referred to a horse being ‘broken’ but I find myself correcting myself when talking about Sprocket and my experience with McLean Sport Horses - he was ‘started’, as not one piece of him was broken in this process, not even that unique personality I wanted to retain. He still gallops to the gate when the float is out and still keen to work. If you are looking for trainers to start a special young horse, consider the McLean’s.
I know I will be back with the next young horse.
