Clearly Alert

Clearly Alert (“Al”): is a 16.2h dark brown 1993 Thoroughbred stallion whose successful racing career was cut short by an injury resulting from a fall coming out of the gate. Surgery brought him sound, but he never raced again and changed careers.

He is a Turkoman son (1986 Eclipse Award – 4yo colt/gelding and Handicap Male of the Year 1986). Turkoman also has sired many steeplechasers and 49 stakes winners and earners of over $20 million.

His ancestry is literally a “Who’s Who” in racing. Conformationally he is correct and has very good feet for a TB. He is well balanced, has three good gaits and nice elevation and extension. He is kind and honest and has a willing attitude. Jumping technique is excellent, however his potential has never been realized since he cannot compete. He remains sound despite his post injury knee deformity.

We have bred him to our Percheron mares and have produced two fine foals (a filly and a gelding for sale). We plan to cross back Corrcullen’s Irish Draught Sport horses to him in the future.

He makes an excellent sire for a more traditional, heavier purebred Irish Draught or other breeds needing refinement, and would produce offspring suitable for any discipline.
