Billy Congo
16.2hh Black AES Stallion - Approved AES, SHB(GB)
Billy Congo is an incredibly proven horse in sport, having enjoyed a long career with great success at the very highest level in showjumping. He had a fantastic year in 2013, after jumping triple clear to finish 4th in the London leg of the Global Champions Tour with William Funnell, they went on to jump triple clear again in Cannes to finish second, and an unlucky pole in the final round in Monte Carlo prevented them from winning the class. Despite this, another 2nd place finish meant that they moved up to fourth in the global champions tour ranking list, with over £150,000 worth of winnings from the 2013 global tour season alone. William and Billy Congo finished off the summer in style by being part of the Gold medal winning team at the European Championships.
Billy Congo retired from international competition in 2018 with over £500,000 in prize money. Billy Congo has gone on to make a superb sire of sport horses, having produced a huge string of international competitors in both eventing and showjumping. These include Billy Buckingham, Winner of the Hickstead Derby and member of the British Showjumping Team at Tryon WEG, and Billy Cuckoo, who placed 7th at Les 5 Etoiles de Pau CCI5* Event.
