Stallion profile

Catherston Dance In The Dark is an outstanding horse, bred from some of the best competition lines in Great Britain. He is a horse with great quality, a lot of presence and an enormous amount of character. He has super limbs and has that beautiful movement, with that swing and elasticity in his step which is sought after in dressage horses. He is suitable for a wide range of mares. He is producing quality competition horses for any of the 3 major disciplines as well as showing. He is ideal for crossing with the larger Warmblood/ID mares and also with Thoroughbreds or ponies. He has an excellent fertility rate, getting some very difficult mares in foal. Jennie Loriston-Clarke has informed us that “His stock have all round talent they jump, are bold and are happy to go first or last”. Dance in the Dark is without doubt a very useful stallion to use and his stock are proving this.
