Murka’s Gem is the clone of Gem Twist who is recognized the world over as one of the best show jumpers of all time. Gem Twist, a gelding, was unable to pass on his genes through breeding. Murka’s Gem is the identical reincarnation of the original Gem Twist. He has joined Team Murka’s Breeding programme to bring back a magnificent blood line to modern breeding. After a trial breeding programme, Murka’s Gem is now publicly available through Stallion AI Services for anyone looking to breed a serious sports horse: show jumper or eventer.
Gem Twist is the only horse to have won the “American Grand Prix Association Horse of the Year” title three times. He did this under three different riders, two of whom he also carried to “Rookie of the Year” titles. Described by all his riders, “As the absolute horse of a life time,” he also won two (2) Olympic silver medals in 1988 at the Seoul Olympics, the “World’s Best Horse” title at the 1990 Stockholm World Equestrian Games, plus numerous major Grand Prix titles. In 2002, Gem Twist was inducted into the United States “Showing Jumping Hall of Fame”.
Murka’s Gem has excellent conformation and is identical in all respects to the original Gem Twist, except one. He is a stallion. Registered with the Anglo European Studbook, he already has his first crop of twenty six foals on the ground.
