Rox Dene

Rox Dene [1][2] (named after Roxdene of Bermuda) was one of the most notable horses to ever compete in hunter competition in the United States.

She is often held as a standard by which modern hunter horses are judged, possessing an almost perfect jumping form with great bascule[2], high knees and tight folding at the knees and ankles [3], excellent movement, and wonderful conformation.

Rox Dene's competitive career ended in 1996, and she took up the new role as a brood mare.

The Boylens decided to retry breeding Rox Dene using embryo transfer.

Rox Dene retired to Pine Meadow Farm in Vass, NC.
