Kingston is of modern riding type combining the elegance and exceptional jumping talent of his TB sire, Martin's Worry, with the proven Dutch lines of his dam, Ariena. These are world class bloodlines for all disciplines. See Kingston's Photo gallery.

 

Scored a perfect '10' on his willingness to work, with 9's on Character and Temperament, with the trainer awarding '8' each for jumping scope and technique, and the judges awarding an 8 for his canter. The test riders scored him 7's & 8 on rideability both on the flat and over fences. Kingston is equally as comfortable with his dressage as he is with his jumping! The ideal Event horse!

Kingston impresses judges and spectators with his naturally good paces and easy going manner. He is a pleasure to show. At recognized CEF/EC dressage competitions under judges such as Lisolette Fore and Hilda Gurney, he has seen ribbons every time with dressage scores in the high 60% including several 70+%. At the jumper shows he is bold and brave with wonderful scope over all types of fences. Now eventing, he is attracting a lot of positive attention.

Kingston's sire, Martin's Worry, is the proven sire of champions in hunter, jumper and combined training in Canada and the U.S.A. From his sire, Kingston has inherited superb rideability and a fabulous canter. The *Royal Charger is a well recognized sport producing line. From the dam sire, *Mustango, comes another proven TB sports line with Mustango the sire of many top combined training horses including the International competitor, 'Might Tango'.

His dam Ariena, herself a star mare, is by Naturel generally considered to be the best approved Lucky Boy xx son. Ariena's dam is by the preferent Dutch stallion Kristal, a noted sire of dressage horses. Naturel was 3- and 4-year-old Champion at the national stallion inspection in Utrecht. He was the absolute topper of the performance test with 8.7 for the riding test, 8 for jumping under saddle and 9 for free jumping. His offspring are not only valued for their sport performance, but also for their sound constitution. In the 1993 Breeding Values of stallions for dressage and jumping, 8-yr-old and older progeny, Naturel was with a jumping index of 112/reliability percentage 94% and a dressage index of 111/reliability percentage 92%. In the 1996/97 WBFSH International Breeding Guide, Naturel shows 5 get competing internationally since 1990 - 2 jumpers and 3 dressage horses. Naturel has been in the top 100 dressage sires in 1995/96 and 1990/96.
