In the market for a new four-legged partner? You may find your unicorn on our sister site, Sport Horse Nation. To help with the search, we’re going to feature a selection of current listings here on EN. We include the ad copy provided; click the links for videos, pricing and contact information.
The leg-up that being a careful, confident show jumper gives to modern event horses cannot be overstated. You can win the dressage and post the boldest, fastest cross country round of the day, but if your horse has a hard time keeping the jumps up on the final day … well, watching that blue ribbon slip just out of reach is never fun.
The six horses we’re featuring today have plenty of potential as eventers but could easily moonlight as straight show jumpers as well thanks to their Grand Prix pedigrees — these youngsters have scope to spare. Could one be your next top eventer and/or show jumper?

RHS Ajax – 2015, Zangersheide Gelding
16.1hh, competing 1.20 show jumping.
Suitable for show jumping/eventing.
Ajax’s sire line is unique with six generations of Grand Prix jumpers in a row: Arezzo VDL, Chin Chin, Heartbreaker, Renville, Jasper and Akteur – and all are sires of Grand Prix jumpers. Ajax’s dam line is no less impressive, and exemplifies performance with the 1.60m show jumping stallions Moujik De Sohan, Voltaire, Royal Bravour, and Ramiro Z. Both sides of the pedigree have winning performances at the very top of sport, as well as having their oldest offspring proven winners up to 1.60 levels.
Ajax himself is proving to be an exceptionally talented and willing individual. He shows 3 naturally active and correct gaits. Consistent in the contact, as well as a very sweet character both under saddle, and in the stable. He is on the more sensitive side, so would require a knowledgeable, and empathetic rider.
His willingness to learn, and try for his rider sets him apart, and makes us confident in his potential to reach the very top of sport.
