Shane Sweetnam (IRL) targets World Games with young talents. One of them is Mimosa San (SWB born 2004 by Cardento out of Easy San by Quite Easy-Excall, breeder Jan-Erik Nilsson).

From Irish Examiner:

“In fact, though, I have three horses with WEG in mind. Mimosa, a nine-year-old Swedish-bred horse, is green at the top level, but good, nonetheless. I also have a new stallion, Venturo, that I sourced in Belgium. He is in quarantine for a month and I plan to show him in the middle of February. Both need to be tested at the top level. It will be a telling year, but I believe they have the talent. Naturally, I would like to be at WEG, but a lot can happen before then,” said the Kanturk native, who is in Florida for the 12-week FTI Consulting Winter Equestrian Festival (WEF).

Indications of his youngsters’ potential won’t be long coming, with Sweetnam expecting to saddle up Mimosa for this weekend’s $50,000 Wellington Equestrian Realty two-star grand prix, while Eregast will compete in next week’s feature, having placed in two 1.45m classes last week.
