GENEROSITY is bred from the most influential of thoroughbred bloodlines, his sire was rated European Champion of the Decade. Generosity has proved himself to be a top class performer in his own right, and people who have known him in the racing world say you could not get more of an honest horse that always tries his best. He has raced on the flat and over hurdles winning a total of £81,438, his wins and placings have been in top class company, including 2nd in the Italian Derby. We feel this is a great opportunity for breeders to have him in the North.
This lovely stallion is standing at Glenwood stud for his first season and as well as being a prominent racing sire for thoroughbred mares he should inject speed and quality into mares of all types for eventing and showjumping and also has the conformation and movement to produce horses for the show ring and dressage arena. He has a lovely temperament and his fertility has proved to be five star.
