Cruising and the Irish show jumping team winning the 1995 Nations Cup in Dublin.


KS: The list of accomplishments at Hartwell is impres- sive. What are the most important ingredients to keep in mind for a successful breeding operation? JM: You do not need to be a big organization to be successful, but having an elite group of breeding mares and top performance stallions to cross with them is essential. The care and attention you can pro- vide to these elite mares is a tenfold return compared to a large breeding facility. This results in greater qual- ity of young stock.


A Look Back at Cruising Cruising is, quite simply,


a world-renowned Irish Sport Horse. He was sired by the Irish Draught stallion Sea


Crest RID out of the three-quarter Thoroughbred mare Mullacrew ISH in 1985. This striking grey, who stands a compact 16.2 hands, was ridden by Trevor Coyle throughout his spectacular show jumping career, which included 18 Grand Prix wins. The only five-star graded stallion in Ireland and also second in world stallion rankings for his own winnings, he is considered to be one of the most consequential sires of the twenty-first century, both in Ireland and around the show- jumping world. The Irish Sport Horse is well known for such


characteristics as even temperament, durability, and athleticism, and Cruising is no exception. His easygoing nature was matched only by his toughness even as a foal. His one foible is his definite—and well-remembered by his han- dlers—hatred of donkeys. Cruising is now retired but his legacy contin- ues, as strong as ever.
