Bonaparte continued on with his very successful show career.
In
2002, at age nine, he was shown by an amateur rider at Prix St-George.
Out of six shows, he won four, and placed second at the other two. Thru
out his competitive career he maintained a busy breeding schedule and had
no soundness issues to hamper his progress up the levels.
His offspring are big, good looking and demonstrate the same attributes that their
sire is well known for, namely, outstanding fluid movement and elasticity
together with the advantage of a great mind. Their versatility and
accomplishments over fences is also becoming well known, with several
offspring moving up the ranks on the West Coast circuit.
