Stallions at Stud - Australian Jumping & Eventing Horses
Dusky Rhythm - Bay 16.3 h. Thoroughbred by Dusky Hunter, sire of numerous eventers and showjumpers competing at the highest levels all over the world. To name a few close relatives of Dusky Hunter that have competed in both Eventing & Showjumping at local and International levels: Lorikeet, June Bug, Zeal, Dusky Song, Dusky Sound, Sharpe Seal, Dusky Dawn, Dusky Sky, Deer Hunter, Smart Seal and Dark Ages.

Dusky Rhythm is a proven competitor in both the eventing and showjumping fields and received very high accolades when ridden by Jeff Bloomfield (Australia's top showjumper at the 2000 Olympics), who stated that Rhythm was "a potential superstar - a definite International prospect". Sadly a shoulder injury prevented his International career from taking off.

Rhythm's beautifully balanced pedigree is full of the most highly sought after thoroughbred influences found today in all the elite sport horses of Europe and America, making him a very desirable sire for both warmblood and thoroughbred mares.

Rhythm has the potential to be a very influential sire of the Australian sport horse development with his excellent bloodlines, his tremendous scope, athleticism and trainability, his beautiful type and fabulous temperament, as well as the ability to pass these on to his progeny. He has competed most successfully at Intermediate level Eventing, C/B grade Showjumping, Medium level Dressage and in Led Stallion events. He has a superb temperament and his conformation is excellent. He has enormous scope over a fence, as well as having three good paces and a lovely ground covering gallop stride.

Rhythm's progeny are now starting their careers and have great temperaments, are nice horses to ride and train, as well as being superb types with flashy markings and athletic ability.
