Breeder Bollerups lantbruksinstitut.
During Amirals first
Grand Prix year in 1995 Kyra rode him to an impressive tenth
place at the European Championships.
Unfortunately, at the Atlanta Olympic Games in 1996 Amiral
suffered a serious eye injury just one week before the competition.
Although he was fit to compete, due to the wonderful co-operation
of the American vets, the loss of training resulted in a
weak performance in the Grand Prix and twenty-eight place.
By the the end
of the summer in 1998 Flyinge sold Amiral to Pether Markne.
Kyra and Amiral could, thanks to the new owner, still start
at the World Equestrian Games in Rome. There they finished
their joint competition career in tenth place. Amiral was
later exported to the United States where he was enjoying
life as a breeding stallion until his death in 2003.
