Dark Yester (By Dark Hyacinth o/o Yester Day by Master Pruner) Sundie is a Thoroughbred mare. Her sire, Dark Hyacinth by Jacinto out of Fine Call by Tom Fool, has consistently been ranked in the USEF Top 10 Hunter breed sires. Examples of his Hunter Breed champions include Black Hyacinth - Champion Yearling, Best Young Horse American Royal 2002; Red Hyacinth - Zone 7, 3 year old Champion, 4th in the Nation Hunter Breeding 2003, Undefeated in 3 years Hunter Breeding including the American Royal 2003; Glenwood - undefeated in 7 straight HBA & AA 2 year old and Best Young Horse Competitions, including St. Louis Charity Horse Show and American Royal. Precipitation has made a major contribution to the sporthorse world by siring Furioso xx, who in France sired ten Olympic show jumpers and the extremely influential warmblood sire, Furioso II. While Precipitation's influence on jumping horses has long been recognized, some of the most exciting dressage horses in the world today trace their ancestry to this great sire. The Oldenburg stallion, Welt As - sire of World Champion, Olympic Bonfire - is out of Elfene, by Furioso II, and Anky van Grunsven's other great dressage horse, Olympic Cocktail, is by Purioso, by Furioso xx. The Bold Ruler/Nasrullah/Nearco line is a prolific sire of international show jumping champions. The effect of the Nearco line has been felt strongly in Europe and in America in the pedigrees of jumpers. In Europe, Lucky Boy, the sire of the leading Grand Prix jumper Calypso (winner of over $100,000 in purses and 1982 FEI World Cup winner), is a grandson of Nearco. Lucky Boy is a popular jumping sire who also sired Van Gogh, a Swiss jumper and member of the 1982 Nations Cup winning team in Lucerne, and the jumper Sassakiss. In North America the influence of Nearco in jumpers has been exceptional. Australis, a member of the Canadian Equestrian Team. previously mentioned, was out of a daughter of Nearco. Big Dee, also a member of the Canadian Equestrian Team and a gold medal winner in the Mexico Olympics, was sired by *Unsinatus, an imported grandson of Nearco. Another grandson of Nearco in North America was the Thoroughbred stallion The Hammer. The Hammer sired many steeplechasers and show jumpers, including Sympatico, the leading Grand Prix horse in North America for several years, and member of the Canadian Equestrian Team. The Hammer also sired the United States Equestrian Team jumper Golden Gavel. Chase The Clouds, rated one of the leading jumpers in the world in 1979 and 1980, descends from Nearco three times. Bold Ruler, by *Nasrullah, a son of Nearco, sired the jumper Mighty Ruler, a Grand Prix winner and member of the United States Equestrian Team at the Pan American Games in Mexico. Bold Ruler is the grandsire of Allegro, a member of the gold medal team in the Pan American Games in 1969 and third placed jumper at the 1979 World Cup in Sweden.
