This Olympic medalist has been in the spotlight since a young age! Everdale was Champion of his Stallion Test, winner of the PAVO Cup Finals, and was winning Grand Prix by the age of 10. The 2021 show season catapulted Everdale further into the spotlight with a Bronze Team medal at the Tokyo Olympics and a Silver Team medal & individual 5th place finish at the European Championships. He continued to impress with top CDI placings internationally in 2022, as did multiple Everdale offspring as they made their Grand Prix debut in 2022 including Imhotep and Inclusive.

Everdale’s sire, Lord Leatherdale, is himself an FEI horse who is well regarded for rideability and character. His offspring have competed at the PAVO Cup Finals, World Championships for Young Horses, and the FEI arena around the world.  Everdale’s damline is particularly strong; the mares have been highly decorated, including Everdale’s great-granddam who is a full-sister to the approved stallion Havidoff.  Grandsire Negro has become a legend as a sire of Grand Prix horses including Olympic & World Champion Valegro.

Everdale stamps his neck, uphill balance, good mechanics, and an excellent canter on his offspring. He has several approved sons to his record and his offspring are highly placed in prestigious competitions including qualifying for the PAVO Cup, USEF Young Horse Championships, the World Championships for Young Horses, and the FEI World Championships. His offspring continue to showcase their talent for top sport and are in demand with top professionals around the world.

Mare Information
Mare Management Reminders

At Hilltop Farm we want to work closely with you and your veterinarian to ensure a successful breeding season and are available for questions at any time. The following information includes some basic suggestions as well as reminders on a few requirements for your breeding contract.

A Breeding Soundness Exam including a uterine culture is recommended, but not required, for all mares prior to breeding. If a mare fails to settle after two breeding cycles, Hilltop Farm will require a culture and cytology to be done at that time prior to any additional shipments of semen. We always recommend your vet checking your mare post-breeding to confirm ovulation. If a mare hangs on to a follicle longer than expected, it can be less expensive to ship additional semen than it would be to breed a second complete cycle. Getting your mare settled in foal is just the beginning. We recommend multiple pregnancy checks to help prevent cases of twins, misdiagnosed pregnancies, or lost time in the breeding season. The following schedule is what we recommend; only the first and fourth checks however are required by your breeding contract.

  • 1st check (Required): 14-16 days post ovulation – optimum time for vet to pinch off a twin if more than a single ovulation is noted.
  • 2nd check (Recommended): 28 days post ovulation – to confirm a viable pregnancy as the heartbeat normally appears by day 25.
  • 3rd check (Recommended): 35-40 days post ovulation – to confirm maintained pregnancy prior to endometrial cup formation. Mares that slip foals early may not come back into heat.
  • 4th check (Required): 55-60 days post ovulation – final confirmation of pregnancy in its critical first trimester.

Following your mare’s 14-16 day pregnancy check, please have your vet complete the Mare Breeding Passport received with your semen shipment and return it to Hilltop Farm. Any changes in pregnancy status after the 14-16 day check must be communicated to Hilltop Farm immediately. This Passport is used in all stallion reports to various breed registries and is used to generate a Breeding Certificate so that you can register your foal.

Registration & Futurity Information

Your mare’s registration and approval play just as important of a role as the stallion’s approvals when determining registration options for your foal. Please keep in mind that in order to register your foal with a specific association, your mare may first need to be presented to that registry for approval. In addition to the registries a stallion is approved with, there may be additional registration options based on your mare’s eligibility and the stallion’s credentials. If you are confused at all on registration options for a potential foal, please speak with Hilltop Farm and your breed registry PRIOR to booking your breeding.
