On A High is the natural choice for those wanting to breed quality performance and showing stock from their pure, part-bred and Thoroughbred mares. His outstanding bloodlines have made a great impact in the United Kingdom and North America.
Brian Nunez purchased this stallion on January 2003 after being attracted by his jumping ability. After being brought back into work slowly, On A High has proven himself as an athletic, bold, forward-going show jumper, with the ability to jump against the clock. He is admired at every show he goes for his temperament and ability and is now a very keen competition stallion.
He made his eventing debut in 2004, competing up to one-star level with positive results through out the season to prove himself as a good allrounder. His good nature allows him to combine the demands of competition with those of stud duties. In 2005 On A High had time of due to an injury and he is now fit and ready for the forthcoming season.
Some of his achievements in 2004:
- 1st at Goring Heath pre-novice, winning on his dressage score
- 6th at Great Witchingham novice two-day, one of only two S.J clear rounds
- 11th at Portman, his first novice and second ever event
- 11th at Stonar (novice)
At the Breed Show 2004:
- 1st in the novice dressage and combined training
- 3rd in combined training with prelim dressage
- 6th in the ID performance seven-years-and-over and best placed Stallion
- His son Dosley Hopes are High was reserve champion in the male youngstock class
