Scroll down for photos of some of her foals.

Finesse is by the premium stallion Martin's Worry, a proven sire of winners in hunter, jumper and combined training as well as the sire of the Approved Canadian Warmblood stallion Kingston.

Finesse won Championships on the line in breeding divisions. She was lightly shown in performance divisions and started over fences before entering the breeding shed. Like all Martin's Worry progeny, Finesse has inherited her sire's fabulous canter and jump as well as his amazing willingness to work. Through her dam line, she hails from strong steeplechase lines with good staying power and longevity in sport. This is a performance/sport bred Thoroughbred.

Finesse is the dam of these foals to date.
