2004 Dressage at Devon - Breed Show

Sir Sinclair Takes the Blue During Markel Day at Dressage at Devon

September 30, 2004

The 5-year old breeding stallion Sir Sinclair won the Four and Older Stallions under saddle class during Markel Day at the 2004 Devon Breed Show. Owned by Iron Spring Farm and ridden by Dorie Addy-Crow, Sir Sinclair shone as the leader in his class.

The KWPN bred stallion by Lord Sinclair x Flemmingh was well presented by Addy-Crow. The dark bay moved with much rhythm and balance and overall showed the most movement potential and bounce in the class.

Equine Insurance Company Markel was the feature sponsor on Wednesday September 29, donating ribbons and trophies for the breed classes. "We have been fourty years uninterrupted in the equine business and it's important to us that we support horses from foal to FEI competition horse," Mary Phelps, a Markel equine insurance specialist, said.

"The Devon Breed Show is the perfect place for our company to show its interest and concern for horse, no matter what breed, or age they are and no matter in what discipline they are campaigned," Phelps continued.

"Dressage at Devon is a great place for companies to sponsor the equine business. They provide extremely interesting sponsor packages and are wonderful to work with. Markel appreciates it much that it can be a silver medal sponsor here at Devon," Phelps added.
