Torrin has had a prolific in hand and ridden career and has also sired some very successful offspring.
His most commendable win was under saddle at Olympia in 2008. It was his first trip there and he won best of breed and then went overall Supreme Champion.
He was leased to HM The Queen for 2 years for stud duties at Balmoral siring 6 foals.
He has an amazing temperament – very laid back and easy to handle. He has sired 21 foals – 8 colts and 13 fillies.
Some of his frozen semen was shipped to the Lochnagar Stud in New Zealand which has produced foals.
He is now enjoying a happy retirement.
