ABOUT US
Our Story
Ardeo Sport Horses was founded in 2014 by Neil and Melanie Wrynn - a couple united by a passion for horses and a commitment to building a sales business grounded in trust, care, and long-term partnerships.
The name “Ardeo” comes from the Latin word meaning to sparkle, blaze, glow, and ignite - a reflection of the spark and connection we believe every great horse-and-rider partnership should hold.
With decades of combined experience in international sport, training, and business, Neil and Melanie created Ardeo to prioritise quality over quantity, people over pressure, and preparation over quick turnover. Their reputation is built on high standards, long-term relationships, and consistently successful matches, making Ardeo one of Ireland’s most respected names in sport horse sales.
Today, horses with the “Ardeo” prefix are competing successfully around the world, a testament to their thoughtful process and dedication to getting every match right.
Every great ride starts with the right partner
