Soundness and longevity are reflected here as well: Sea Hero lived to 29, POLISH NAVY to 27, and GLOWING TRIBUTE to 31. Glowing Tribute was a half-sister to the sport horse progenitor BUCKPASSER. Hero’s Tribute passes on his beautiful, elegant look, lightness in forehand, even temperament, jumping talent, and movement. The Bloodlines of DAMASCUS are well known for hunters and jumping. The close relative SEA LION is a famous approved 3*** stallion who shortlisted for the USA Olympic eventing team, (Ruffianstables.com). SEA ACCOUNTS (also by SEA HERO) is a 4th level dressage and open preliminary eventing stallion.
