The year 2016 is a special year for Team Nijhof as it is

exactly 100 years ago that our studfarm was built and our

ancestors started here. The year 2015 was probably one

of the most successful years ever. Our stallion Verdi won

the Team Gold Medal at the European Championships

at Aachen and Johnson won both, the Team Gold Medal

and the individual Bronze Medal at the European

Championships at Aachen.

Furthermore we were awarded ‘Equine Entrepreneur of

the year’, a serious and very respected price for which we

received a lot of compliments and of which we are very

proud.

At this moment Team Nijhof again has a great number

of stallions that have participated at Grand Prix level

such as Clinton, Canabis Z, Eldorado van de Zeshoek,

Johnson, Lord Z, Quality Time, Spartacus, Verdi, Tadmus

and Zacharov. But there is also frozen semen available

from the Grand Prix jumpers Calvados, Concorde, Voltaire,

Larino, Manhattan, Marius Claudius and Warrant.

For 2016 we have selected a group of top class new

stallions such as Hernandez TN (Kannan x Numero

Uno), Malibu TN (Mr. Blue x Hors la Loi), Highway M TN

(Eldorado van de Zeshoek x Chellano x Darco), Pilothago

(Pilot x Carthago x Stakkato) and Maestro van de Bisschop

(Cornet Obolensky).

We also recommend our group of excellent young

performers such as, Grandorado TN, Floris TN, Firestone,

Formidable, Latour, Elton John, El Clarimo, Elvaro, I’m

Special de Muze and Starpower. All stallions that do very

well in sports and breeding.

As you can see in the top ten of the world breeding

ranking it takes Grand Prix stallions to breed Grand Prix

horses. Therefore we find it enormously important that

the stallions prove themselves in the sport. With our

own stallions, they must also show their worth, whatever

genes they possess themselves can also be passed on

to their offspring. Everything is hereditary, especially

their performance in the ring. In 2016 we will keep you

updated on the performances of our stallions and their

offspring via our website and social media on Facebook

and Youtube.

We wish you a successful breeding season in 2016 and

you are always welcome to ask us breeding advice for your

mares!

BACK IN THE DAYS

On the left you see the stallion Heraut (Donar x Weimer x Lorton). It all started with him. The stallion was approved in 1946 and was the first approved stallion owned by Team Nijhof. Later he was sold to the association ‘Noord Oost Veluwe in Oldenbroek’. In those days, horses were paid for in cash in 10 and 25 guilder bills. The war had just ended so you can imagine that the amount of 45.000 guilders in cash was a huge amount at the time.

One of the most complete stallions

CANABIS Z

The beautifully build Canabis Z started his sporting and breeding career at Stud Zangersheide. Afterwards Canabis Z jumped for no less than six seasons at international level, mostly ridden by Spain’s Manuel Fernandez Saro. Canabis Z has been successful at many four and five star competitions and won the Grand Prix of Vejer de la Frontera for example.Canabis Z is a son of the legendary Holstein bred sire Contender, who still has a great influence on today’s breeding. The genes of the valuable sires Silvester and Cor de la Bryere strengthen Canabis’ pedigree. In addition, Canabis Z was bred out of the strong, famous Holstein damline 990.

From Canabis’ first crop, several offspring competes successfully at the highest level, such as the Olympic mare Cadjanine Z (Gregory Wathelet and nowadays Rodrigo Pessoa), Carolus Z (Henri Kovács, Cian O’Connor and today Bernardo Alves), who competed at the European Championships in Herning 2013, and World Cup winner Carrabis Z (Richie Moloney). Like himself, Canabis Z’s offspring catch the eye with excellent reflexes, technique, attitude and a great confirmation.

Ridden by Dirk Demeersman, Clinton himself was a phenomenon in the international showjumping ring, while in breeding he is perhaps of even greater class. The son of the legendary Corrado I competed at the Olympic Games in Athens 2004, won the Grand Prix of Lummen and finished second in both the Grand Prix and the Nations Cup at CHIO Aachen.Clinton’s world-class qualities are a result of his strong pedigree, sired by the Corrado I out of a dam by Masetto, which carries the genes of both Moltke and Cottage Son xx. Clinton’s great-grandsire is the world-famous Landgraf I, whose influence is still enormous. In addition, Clinton’s granddam Ohra jumped successfully

at international level, named ‘Olympia’. Ridden by Karsten Huck and Dirk Schröder she won over 50.000 German Marks.In breeding, Clinton is unrivaled as the sire of more than 50 licensed stallions, including the KWPN-approved Eldorado van de Zeshoek TN, Zacharov TN and Whitaker. But the most striking is of course the already legendary top sire Cornet Obolensky, who jumped at the highest level with Marco Kutscher and is placed third on the WBFSH Sire Ranking for Showjumpers.

Everytime he goes in the ring, El Clarimo shows his mighty canter and demonstrates his enormous jumping talents. After he received 84.5 points in the KWPN Performance Test as a 3-year-old, El Clarimo continued to impress in the stallion competition. As a 6-year-old, El Clarimo already made his international debut with Willem Greve and currently the son of Clarimo is to be prepared for the major international shows.Sire Clarimo develops himself as a foundation sire in Holstein’s breeding of showjumpers and ridden by Rolf-Göran Bengtsson, Clarimo performs at the highest level. His half-brothers Cassini I and Cassini II are both world-famous sires and the oldest offspring of Clarimo have already made their international Grand Prix debut. El Clarimo himself was bred out of the famous Holsteiner damline 390 and is closely related to famous showjumpers such as For Sale, Emporio van ‘t Holeinde and Little Tom. In addition, El Clarimo’s granddam Vorr produced the international showjumper Cheer of Holger Hetzel and she is the half-sister to the successful showjumpers A 23 and Caldera.With his outstanding pedigree and his huge potential as a showjumper, El Clarimo seems to be a valuable asset for the breeding of showjumpers!

Powerhouse Eldorado van de Zeshoek meets all the expectations in both sport and breeding. Ridden by Willem Greve, the son of Clinton is currently among the best combinations in The Netherlands, making several Nations Cup appearances last year. In breeding, Eldorado van de Zeshoek is undoubtedly a foundation sire in the making, with already three KWPN approved sons, namely Grandorado TN, Grodino and Highway M TN.In addition, Eldorado van de Zeshoek’s dam Bijou Orai currently competes at 1.60m level with French rider Olivier Perreau. With the Olympic stallion Clinton as his sire and the highly successful Toulon as dam’s sire, Eldorado’s pedigree is more than outstanding.At the beginning of 2015, Willem Greve took over the reins of Eldorado van de Zeshoek and immediately won the Grand Prix of Roosendaal. “Eldorado van de Zeshoek has unlimited scope and with his power he can jump all the classes in the world. Thereby he is competitive, so I’m very happy to have him in my stable!”, Willem Greve says about Eldorado van de Zeshoek.

The bigger the fences, the easier Elton John seems to jump them. Ridden by Zoï Snels, the son of Clearway shows his functional way of jumping time and time again. Combined with lots of scope and carefulness. Thanks to those qualities, Elton John clears almost every course and qualified for the World Championships in Lanaken last year for the second year in a row.Elton John’s talent could be expected, given his outstanding pedigree: sire Clearway is one of the most influential sires of Holstein and Elton John’s damline is among world’s best. Granddam Ilotte produced Marcus Ehning’s longtime number one horse Plot Blue, the ‘Keur’ awarded stallion Oklund and she is the granddam to great horses like Babylotte (Bart Bless and Yuri Mansur Guerios), the KWPN approved Broere Extase (Patrick van der Schans) and the highly talented AES approved Dakar TN (Nabab de Rêve x Holland), which already jumps at 1.40m level with Henk van de Pol. In addition, Elton John’s dam Vilotte already produced the international showjumper Blackberry (Mischa Everse). The oldest offspring of Elton John are characterized by power and easy way of jumping and his first son has been invited for the second round of the KWPN Stallion Show.

Ridden by Niels Nanning, the excellent bred Elvaro shows a lot of potential for the highest level of the showjumping sport. The son of Calvaro catches attention with his enormous scope and extreme carefulness and thanks to those characteristics Elvaro ended up fourth in the final standings of the KWPN Stallion Competition. Sire Calvaro jumped at the highest level with Jos Lansink, Michael and John Whitaker and has developed into a true top sire with famous offspring like Katchina Mail (Patrice Delaveau), Grafton (Conor Swail), Santiago de Blondel (Manuel Fernandez Saro) and Sarena (Ben Maher).Elvaro’s dam April Love M is a daughter of the legendary Heartbreaker and jumped at 1.35m level herself. Heartbreaker is of an incredible

value to the breeding of showjumpers, as a sire of top stallions like Toulon, Quasimodo van de Molendreef and Harley and of world-class showjumpers like Romanov (Bertram Allen), Dejavu (Bassem Hassan Mohammed) and VDL Groep Zidane (Leopold van Asten).In addition, Elvaro was bred out of the direct damline of the KWPN approved stallion Londontimes, which jumped at the highest level with Kevin Olsmeyer and has proved to be valuable in breeding too. International top horses like Ultimo (Annelies Vorsselmans) and Tag Heuer (Geir Gulliksen) are also closely related to Elvaro.

Firestone is the wonderful result of top-class dressage sires Johnson and Florencio. Ridden by Hans Peter Minderhoud, Johnson is among the world’s best dressage horses. He contributed to the bronze team medal at the World Equestrian Games in Caen in 2014 and the golden team medal at the European Championships in Aachen 2015, where Johnson also earned an individual bronze medal. Florencio has been world champion as both a five- and a six-year-old, while last year the KWPN awarded Florencio as ‘Keur’ sire. Florencio deserved this great title thanks to his offspring performing at Grand Prix level and the talented KWPN approved stallion Charmeur. The thoroughbred Painters Row xx and the valuable Saluut strengthen Firestone’s pedigree. Firestone was bred out of the famous Bella-damline, which produced many successful showjumpers and dressage horses. Firestone’s full sister Elfi also earned no less than 81.5 points the KWPN Mare Test and achieved an amazing score of 95 points for her trot at the KWPN Mare Inspections.As a 3-year-old, Firestone stood out due to his fantastic confirmation and movements, which earned him the title of reserve champion at the KWPN Stallion Show. Afterwards, Firestone earned 82.5 points in the KWPN Performance Test and makes a great impression with Joyce Lenaerts in the KWPN Stallion Competition. In Ermelo Firestone finished fifth, in Roosendaal he ended up fourth and at the last competition in Zuidbroek, Firestone became third. Firestone’s first foals seem promising: they show charm, charisma and great movements!

Last year Florencio’s great influence in breeding was recognised by the KWPN and Florencio received the prestigious title ‘Keur’. Again and again, Florencio’s offspring prove themselves: several offspring scores over 70% at Grand Prix level – including the approved stallion Florenciano, ridden by Hubertus Schmidt, nearly 40 sons of Florencio are approved stallions, including the KWPN approved Charmeur, his son Borencio won the Pavo Cup for young dressage horses twice and many times his daughters turned out as true stars at KWPN Mare Inspections.Sire Florestan I is an outstanding dressage ambassador of Westphalia, with many approved sons, like Fidermark, Fleurop, Fürst Heinrich, Faveur, Neostan, Flores, Freestyle and Flieder. Grandsire Weltmeyer is one of the most famous

sires of Hannover with countless approved sons and offspring at the highest level of dressage, while great-grandsire Pik Bube is a world-famous sire too.These outstanding dressage genes were expressed through Florencio at already a young age: in 2003 Florencio became reserve champion of Germany at the prestigious Bundeschampionat and as a 4-year-old Florencio became champion of Westphalia. Ridden by Hans Peter Minderhoud, Florencio became World Champion for young dressage horses in Verden in both 2004 and 2005. Later on, he dominated the Dutch VHO-Trophy twice at Prix St. Georges level.

Thanks to his gorgeous confirmation and fantastic movements, Formidable was not only approved in Westphalia, but also honored as ‘Prämie’ stallion. Formidable lives up to his name with his confirmation and movements, but also has a pedigree to dream of. Sire Fidertanz is developing into one of the greatest sires of Germany and ridden by Portugal’s António Do Vale, Fidertanz successfully performs at Grand Prix level. In breeding, Fidertanz meets all the expectations, with already more than 40 approved sons, including the champion Flanagan, Feedback, Foundation and Franziskus. Additionally, Fidertanz produced several champions at the Bundeschampionat and his oldest offspring already performs successfully at Prix St. Georges level.Formidable’s grandsire De Niro and great-grandsire Weltmeyer have developed into true foundation sires for the breeding of dressage horses. De Niro is indispensable as a sire of famous Grand Prix dressage horses like Desperados, Dablino, D’Agostino, Donnerfee and Glock’s Voice.Formidable’s damline also strengthen his genes: dam Deseada SL is a ‘Staatsprämie’ mare and produced the approved stallion Belstaff (De Niro x Brentano II), which performs at Prix St. Georges level. In addition, Granddam Wylie AS is the full sister of Grand Prix dressage stallion Whisper, ridden by Brett Parbery and Jody Hartstone.

All eyes are on Grandorado TN, being one of the greatest talents of the G-year of the KWPN. In the KWPN Performance Test the son of Eldorado van de Zeshoek earned 85.5 points and he was already described as a phenomenon. Top-level rider Willem Greve discovered many world-class horses in his career and bought a share of Grandorado too. “He is a true natural. He is a rough diamond with all the potential, in my opinion”, Willem Greve states about Grandorado.His unlimited scope and power, Grandorado inherited from his sire Eldorado van de Zeshoek, a son of Clinton which jumps at the highest level with Willem Greve. Dam Charmieque also jumped at 1.40m level with Willem Greve, after

she scored 83 points in a mare performance test of the KWPN. Grandsire Carolus II jumped at Grand Prix level with both Thomas Voss and Schuyler Riley and has produced many international jumpers. Great-grandsire Baloubet du Rouet is also of top-class level, being a top sire and winner of three World Cup Finals and Olympic gold with Rodrigo Pessoa.Grandorado was not only the champion of the KWPN Performance Test, but also won the 4-year-olds competition at Jumping Schröder Tubbergen. Later on, Grandorado won all three KWPN Stallion Competitions in Ermelo, Roosendaal and Zuidbroek.

It is all in the name: Guidam Sohn is an approved son of world-class sire Guidam – sire of Olympic medalists Authentic (Beezie Madden), Ninja la Silla (Rolf-Göran Bengtsson) and Vindicat W (Peter Charles and Jessica Springsteen). Successful showjumpers like Luidam (Billy Twomey), Lansdowne (Conor Swail) and Zinedine (Ludger Beerbaum) are also sired by the great Guidam. The valuable sires Zeus and Akteur strengthen the pedigree of Guidam Sohn, who also comes from a powerful damline.Dam Fanakta also produced the international showjumper Naktibro, the AES approved son of Heartbreaker Sunny, who jumped at international level with Bart Bles and Jessica Rosa, and the 1.40m showjumper Anakta of Patrick Nisbett. Fanakta is also the granddam to Unato, who jumped at Grand Prix level with both Marcel Wolf and Sabrina Crotta.Guidam Sohn himself was approved after a superb 100-day-test in the Czech Republic and won the Czech national title as a 5-year-old. Jos Lansink competed Guidam Sohn successfully in international young horse classes in San Patrignano, Valkenswaard and Lyon, but an injury ended Guidam Sohn’s sports career too early. From his first crop of offspring, several jump successfully at international level, such as Boucherom, ridden by Lucy Davis, Quido Rebel, who has had many international top placings with Tim Hoster and currently Samuel Hutton and many more.

For years, Kannan is among world’s best showjumping sires and last year finally his first son got approved by the KWPN: Hernandez TN. Ridden by Michél Hecart, Kannan impressed at the very highest level; he won several Grand Prix competitions, was a loyal member of the French team and he participated at the European Championships in San Patrignano 2005. Kannan’s offspring might be even better, just to mention some: Olympic champion Nino des Buissonets, World Cup Final winner Albführen’s Paille (both Steve Guerdat), Bertram Allen’s world-class Molly Malone V, multiple five star Grand Prix winner Quorida de Treho (Romain Duguet) and Ben Maher’s number one horse Diva II.Hernandez TN combines the valuable genes of Kannan with those of foundation sire Numero

Uno, the sire of Hernandez’ dam. Numero Uno sired many top showjumpers, such as Winchester HS, Sterrehof’s Tamino, Tobalio, Tyson and Van Gogh. Hernandez TN’s dam Bea-Leva performed herself at 1.35m level and was bred from the well-known Leva-damline. From this same damline many excellent showjumpers come from, such as Oliver Q (Harrie Smolders), Alex (Piergiorgio Bucci) and Extreme (Leslie Burr-Howard). Granddam Leva II also jumped at 1.35m level and is the half-sister of Navantus, which ridden by Jilian Terceira participated at the Pan American Games in 2007. Hernandez TN combines the enormous scope and the wonderful attitude of sire Kannan with the extreme reflexes, beautiful technique and extreme carefulness of grandsire Numero Uno.

The enormous value of Eldorado van de Zeshoek as a showjumping sire is expressed again through the highly talented Highway M TN. In the KWPN Performance Test, this promising stallion impressed with his powerful canter, great push from the floor, huge scope and lightning reflexes. Thanks to those qualities, Highway M TN earned several 8s and 8.5s for all the jumping aspects. Sire Eldorado van de Zeshoek combines the genes of top sires Clinton and Toulon and jumps himself at the highest level with Willem Greve. His promising sons Grandorado TN and Grodino got approved by the KWPN earlier.Highway’s dam’s sire Chellano Z jumped at international level with Jos Lansink and sired showjumpers like HH Carlos Z (McLain Ward), Challenge of the Begijnakkker Z (Olivier Philippaerts), Chill RZ (Charlie Jayne) and many others performing at the highest level. The legendary Olympic stallion Darco confirms the unlimited scope in the pedigree of Highway M TN.

Granddam Uvita V produced the international showjumper Aldino V, ridden by Robert Pal. International showjumpers like Savita WH (Marco Sas), Relinda (Angelique Hoorn and Kristian Houwen) and Barno (Michael Duffy) are also closely related to Highway M TN.

In every way, I’m Special de Muze is unique. First of all his pedigree: sire Emerald has had countless victories with Harrie Smolders, including the World Cup of Washington in 2015, the Nations Cup of Falsterbo in 2015 and the Nations Cup of Aachen and Gijon in 2013. As a sire, the son of Diamant de Semilly x Carthago also does a great job; his oldest offspring compete already at 1.45m level. I’m Special Muze’s dam Walnut de Muze has also won a lot all over the world, ridden by Harrie Smolders. Just think of Grand Prix and Nations Cup wins in Madrid, Dublin, Doha, Wellington, Mechelen and Calgary. Ridden by Christophe Barbeau, Granddam Qerly Chin jumped the World Cup final in Milan and was reserve for the Olympic Games in Athens 2004. Afterwards, Qerly Chin turned out one of the best broodmares ever to be in Belgium.Rider Zoï Snels confirms the great qualities of I’m Special de Muze. “I think he has a 100% score on every aspect: he is top careful, has scope, has a great rideability and has a super attitude. If he continues to develop like this, he is a horse for the future!” In 2013, I’m Special Muze jumped clear in all six rounds of the Belgian Pavo Stallion Competition, in 2015 he won the GMB Competition for six- and seven-year-olds in Drachten and in the same year he won the Showjumping Stallions Class at Indoor Brabant.

Ridden by Hans Peter Minderhoud, Glock’s Johnson TN N.O.P. has risen to be one of world’s best combinations in dressage. The son of Jazz takes in the 6th placing on the FEI World Ranking, after winning the golden team medal and individual bronze at the European Championships in Aachen. “His outstanding attitude has made the greatest difference at the highest level. Even if he is almost unable to do something, Johnson will do it for you anyhow”, rider Hans Peter Minderhoud says about his number one horse. “When Johnson enters the ring, all people will sit up. He truly is a king!”After the phenomenal performances of Johnson in Aachen last year, you could almost forget the bronze team medal at the World Equestrian Games in Caen 2014. And of course the victories in the Grand Prix and Grand Prix Spécial in Treffen, the second placings in the Grand Prix and Grand Prix Freestyle in Rotterdam, et cetera.As a sire, Johnson seems to walk in the footsteps of his sire Jazz and grandsire Flemmingh. Jazz himself performed at Grand Prix level and for many years has been among world’s best dressage sires on the WBFSH Sire Ranking. Through offspring like Krack C and Lingh, also Flemmingh has left its mark on today’s breeding of dressage horses. The offspring of Johnson make great impressions on all levels as well. The approved stallion Meggle’s Boston (Hendrik Lochthowe) already performs at Grand Prix level, while Bretton Woods (Matthias Alexander Rath) and Boston STH (Denise Nekeman) are close to it. Also on the KWPN shows, the offspring of Johnson does a fantastic job. Just think of Handsome O, the champion of the KWPN Stallion Show in 2015.

Latour seems to have everything to make a difference in both sport and breeding in the near future. First of all, Latour was honored as Champion of the BWP Stallion Show, thanks to his great confirmation and powerful way of jumping. The power and scope he inherited from his sire Darco, who became seventh with Ludo Philippaerts at the Olympic Games in Barcelona in 1992 and later on became a true top sire, ranked on top of the WBFSH Sire Ranking for years. Dam Everlychin de la Pomme brings in the genes of Cumano through her sire Malito de Rêves and Everlychin herself jumped at Grand Prix level with Shane Sweetnam at an early age. Additionally, Everlychin already produced another BWP champion: Kasanova de la Pomme. Granddam Werly Chin de Muze jumped herself at 1.50m level with Angelie von Essen and is a daughter of the legendary mare Qerly Chin. The origins of the talented stallion I’m Special Muze also go back to Querly Chin.Latour’s first foals were sold for great prices at prestigious foal auctions, such as Borculo and Prinsjesdag. Like their sire, they have charisma and powerful way of moving.

Besides being a product of an exclusive pedigree, Malibu TN himself shows a lot of talent as a showjumpers. Sire Mr. Blue was known as one of world’s best jumpers ridden by Bert Romp and as a sire he has proven himself with offspring like Plot Blue, Simon, Zirocco Blue and many, many others. Grandsire Hors la Loi II earned the ‘Keur’ predicate by the KWPN thanks to his outstanding performing offspring, such as Untouchable, Verdi III and Makavoy. In the third generation of Malibu TN’s pedigree we find the legendary Libero H, winner of the World Cup Final with Jos Lansink in Den Bosch in 1994 and later on a true foundation sire.The latter also applies to his son Numero Uno, who happens to be the full brother to Malibu’s

granddam Olanda. Numero Uno leaves its marks with offspring like Winchester HS, Tobalio, Tyson and Sterrehof’s Tamino. Malibu’s dam Ursula earlier brought the successful mare Bellinda, a daughter of Namelus R jumping at 1.55m level with Canada’s Kara Chad.And besides all those successful relatives, Malibu TN himself also seems a top horse in the making. During the KWPN Performance Test, he stood out through reflexes and rideability and attitude, and also his tremendous scope and light-footed movements are great features of Malibu. His excellent use of the body and extreme carefulness make Malibu TN a very complete and modern showjumper.

Maestro van den Bisschop is the best example of today’s breeding of showjumpers: sire Cornet Obolensky is a son of the Olympic stallion Clinton out of a dam by the legendary Heartbreaker and jumped himself at Olympic level with Marco Kutscher. In breeding Cornet Obolensky belongs to world’s best and he is ranked at the top of the WBFSH Sire Ranking. Grandsire Libero H is a son of foundation sire Landgraf I and has won the World Cup Final with Jos Lansink in 1994. Later on, Libero H produced countless Grand Prix offspring and approved stallions. In addition, we find Grannus and Zeus in the pedigree of Maestro van den Bosch, who both have been of incredible value for the breeding of sport horses.

Not the list of sires, but rather his damline makes Maestro van den Bisschop as unique as he is. Dam Secret Love Wonderland is known as one of the world’s best broodmares with progeny like World Cup winner Estina and the BWP approved stallion Dulf van den Bisschop.At the BWP Stallion Show, Maestro van den Bisschop himself impressed with his great attitude, amazing reflexes and athletic ability: all typical features for almost all of his relatives. Expectations are high for Maestro van den Bisschop in both sport and breeding!

Everything indicates that Quality Time is going to be a true foundation sire of showjumpers. His son Floris TN has been approved by the KWPN and every year again sons of Quality Time earn tickets for the second and third round or even the performance test of the KWPN Stallion Selections. In addition, his daughters Féline and Fadessa H2 received fantastic scores of 83 and 86.5 points for the KWPN Mare Test IBOP.The famous breeder Floris van Leuken bred Quality Time, who is a son of the well-known Quantum – sire to Grand Prix showjumpers such as Quintero la Silla, GK Quentin, Karatina and Quin Chin. In addition, Quality Time was bred out of an excellent damline as well: granddam Jessika II produced the valuable stallion Goodwill and out of this same Holsteiner damline 1463, the Olympic showjumpers Lanciano (Philippe Guerdat) and Lucilla II (Princess Haya) were bred.Ridden by Jeroen Dubbeldam, Quality was among the Netherlands’ best combinations. In 2011 they became Dutch champion and one year later they won the Grand Prix of San Patrignano. Last year the talented rider Zoï Snels took over the reins of the experienced Quality Time. “Quality Time gets me to a higher level in the sport, I really owe that to him. Quality Time is careful and has unlimited power and has an dedication of 100%. He would always bring me to the finish, in any class. And this top attitude he passes on, because his offspring have it as well!”

Pilothago is an Westphalian ‘Prämie’ stallion and the last approved son of the legendary sire Pilot. Both as a sire and a dam’s sire or grandsire Pilot’s value in breeding is still of great importance. International showjumping stars like Priamos, Bugatti Pedro, Pirol, Poker and Pia Lotta are all direct offspring by the famous Pilot, while his approved sons also have made name for themselves. Just think of Iroko and Peter Pan and another 90 (!) approved stallions by Pilot. In the second generation, the pedigree of Pilothago goes back to two-time Olympic showjumper Carthago and the world-class sires Stakkato and Grannus. Also the damline of Pilothago is of great strength: dam Valerie already produced the Westphalian approved stallion Diathago and she is the half-sister to the

international showjumper Maximo del Castegno and the 1.50m jumper Gioia del Castegno, both ridden by Roberto Prandi. In addition, Pilothago’s granddam Sera del Castegno is the full sister to the Oldenburg and Hanoverian approved Sicerto, who jumped at international level with Rolf Moormann.Pilothago stood out with his talent as a showjumper during the 70-days-test in Neustadt-Dosse, earning an 8.75 for jumping under the saddle. For his character he received several 8s. Pilothago catches the eye with his enormous power and carefulness and looks to be a great talent for the future. His first offspring was born in 2014 and they seem to have great types, a good canter and elasticity.

Spielberg is a dressage stallion to dream of. His conformation is almost ideal and he is a true ‘Strahlemann’. Thanks to his great movements, he obtained as only one of the few Westphalian stallions the title ‘Prämie’ stallion. Sire Sunny Boy is an acclaimed son of Sandro Hit out of the Donnerhall-daughter Fantastica - the full sister of the legendary Don Schufro and Don Primero. Spielberg’s grandsire Rosier brings in the precious genes of Rubinstein I, who was bred out of the famous damline of Olympic champions Ahlerich, Rembrandt and Amon. Through dam Rosiera, Spielberg goes back to Rondula, who is also the granddam of the Grand Prix dressage horse Last Minute, ridden by Ilka-Kerstin Geiss.Besides a great size, Spielberg adds a fantastic mind to today’s breeding of dressage horses. Thereby Spielberg has a lot of rhythm and balance in his movements and he won the stallion performance test in Zweibrücken on all the dressage elements. Ridden by Joyce Lenaerts, Spielberg became 10th at the Dutch Championships at Advanced Medium level, known in the Netherlands as ZZ-Licht. In addition, Spielberg became second at Geldrop Hippique.In addition to size and format Spielberg adds a huge stable character to the dressage horse. In addition, Spielberg has a lot of rhythm and balance in movement and won the performance test in Zweibrücken on the dressage elements. Under Joyce Lenaerts was Spielberg himself tenth at the Spielberg’s oldest offspring also perform at respectable level: ridden by Fieke Houwen, Spielberg’s Cartier made his debut at Prix St. Georges level and ridden by Robin van Lierop, Denza Lenza also performs at this same level.

Thanks to Starpower TN Germany’s best genes are available in the Netherlands! Ridden by Eva Bitter, sire Stakkato was among German’s best horses for years and his offspring perform as good as he did. Just to mention some of Stakkato’s world-famous offspring: Spartacus TN, Souvenir, Satisfaction I Filou de Muze and many other Grand Prix showjumpers. Grandsire Escudo I has also proven to be a valuable sire in Germany and Starpower’s dam Enjoy is no one less than the full sister to El Paso, who jumped at international level with both Markus Beerbaum and Daniel Heuer. Additionally, dam Enjoy herself already produced Cian O’Connor’s rising star Saphir and the international showjumper Pegasus Athleta. Granddam Wyoming jumped herself at 1.40m level and is the full sister of Grand Prix dressage stallion Frambeau and the aunt of Imke Schellekens-Bartels’ legenday

Olympic Sunrise.Starpower TN became the champion of both the 70-day test in Prüssendorf as the KWPN Performance Test. Starpower was approved by the KWPN with a score of 87 points, including a 9 for reflexes, rideability and attitude and talent as a showjumper. Later on, Starpower TN and Hanno Ellerman jumped successfully in all the young horse competitions, and ridden by Zoï Snels, Starpower TN made his international 1.40m debut last year. At the World Championships in Lanaken for 7-year-olds, Starpower TN showed his enormous scope and potential for the major Grand Prix level.Starpower’s oldest offspring catch the eye with their scope and easy way of jumping and out of his first crop, already two sons were invited for the second round of the KWPN Stallion Selections.

VDL Groep Verdi TN N.O.P. is the best example of sport and breeding going hand in hand. For years, Verdi combines his career as a sire with a sports career at the very highest level. Last year, Verdi and his rider Maikel van der Vleuten competed at their fifth major championship in a row (!): European Championships in Madrid 2011, Olympic Games in London 2012, European Championships in Herning 2013, World Equestrian Games in Caen 2014 and European Championship in Aachen 2015. In addition, Verdi took part in no less than three World Cup Finals, in which he finished twice as 6th and once as 7th! With Olympic team silver, team gold at the WEG and European team gold in his pocket, the 14-year-old Verdi seems to be on the right track for the Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro in 2016.Besides his own performances, Verdi’s pedigree is also outstanding. Sire Quidam de Revel is one of the most influential sires of the past decades and the same goes for Verdi’s legendary grandsire Landgraf I. Verdi was bred out of the famous Holsteiner damline 747a, which also produced Calato, VDL Bubalu, Vingino and many more world-class showjumpers and stallions.It does not come as a surprise that Verdi is developing into a true foundation sire himself. From his first crops of offspring, one after another jumps at Grand Prix level and although his oldest progeny is only 10 years old, over 80 offspring by Verdi jump at 1.40m level or higher! In addition, his sons Farmgraaf and First Verdi were approved by the KWPN and Verdi produced numerous champions at KWPN Mare Shows.

Zacharov is the perfect example of performance breeding as we love to see nowadays. Zacharov’s pedigree include Olympic sire Clinton, the extremely competitive Lord Z, Stallion of the Century Nimmerdor, the legendary Almé and the indispensable Gotthard. In addition, Zacharov’s damline goes back to the well-known mare Antje Z. This daughter of Almé is a result of the same combination as World Cup Finalists and famous stallion Artos Z and Aerobic Z, sons of Almé bred out of the full sisters of Antje’s dam. Additionally, Antje Z stood at the base of Grand Prix horses like Toldine (Francie Steinwedell-Carvin), Shinto (José Maria Rega) and Plenty (Eliza Schuford).Zacharov’s dam Oldine already produced the international showjumpers Adventure (Riccardo Pisani), Uladine (Martina Meroni) and Carolus

(Jörg Peper), while her grandchildren Aldine (Jordan MacPherson) and Zsa Zsa (Patrick Spits) compete at 1.60m and 1.40m level.Ridden by Maikel van der Vleuten and Hanno Ellerman, Zacharoved already performed at international level at a very young age. Zacharov won the World Cup of Pezinok in 2013, the Grand Prix of Mierlo and the Gold Tour in Celje, while he already made his Grand Prix debut as an 8-year-old. Zacharov was placed in the top 10 at prestigious shows like Valkenswaard, Lanaken, Oliva, Lyon, Hamburg and Basel.As a sire, Zacharov stays loyal to his pedigree and his own fantastic performances. His oldest offspring have already made their international debut.

Zambesi is the result of sport horse breeding with a vision. The legendary Heartbreaker, who is world-famous for his reflexes and attitude, was combined with Calvaro Z, who stood out due to his unlimited scope. Zambesi’s dam Calanda Z jumped at international level with Mathijs van Asten, while granddam Alanda performed at international level with Pieter Kersten. Alanda is a daughter of Le Mexico and bred many top horses, such as It’s The Business (Geoff Glassard) and Galanda (Edwin Smits), who is again the dam to Now or Never (Piet Raijmakers).As a youngster, Zambesi himself was already successful in showjumping: at the age of six he qualified for the finals at the World Championships in Lanaken and ridden by Sjaak Sleiderink he became three times second out of four competitions in the KWPN Stallion Competition, of which he won both the final and the overall standings in Den Bosch. Later on, Zambesi competed successfully at 1.45m level.Zambesi’s offspring show great potential for the big sport. For example, the now six-year-old Fozz was acquired by Ashford Farm for top-rider Marlon Zanotelli last year, his offspring stand out in young horse competitions again and again and a son of Zambesi x Polydor became reserve champion of the Stallion Show in Westphalia. Just like Zambesi himself, his offspring show reflexes, a great attitude and a lot of power.

Indian Summer is overall convincing! He is a very talented dressage horse with an attractive type and outstanding origins. At the National Championship for mares dam Rilena was runner up and she took revanche at the European Championship for mares in Brussels, where she won the title! She was successful on fourth level dressage and scored high marks in the mare testing. More performance genes are coming from ‘stallion of the century’ Nimmerdor in the third generation. Indian Summer shows a lot of technique, suppleness and self-carriage in his three good gaits.

Impact TN represents the Rembrandt family of Herbert de Baey. Dam Andorra is a half sister of the international Grand Prix dressage horse U II (s.Jazz) of Günter Seidel. This combination scored above 70 percent on the highest level for many times. She is also the dam of Dance and Jake Johnson. This damline traces back on the Rousseau-mare Roussina, who is also in the damline of the KWPN approved Bordeaux. That makes this damline very special. Impact TN has a lot of technique and suppleness in his movements.

A jumping machine, bred out of a wonderful family! This 5-year-old talent has been approved by the AES and is sired by Calvaro Z, who competed in all major championships with Jos Lansink, Michael and John Whitaker. For example, Calvaro Z reached the finals of the OG in Sydney 2000. Ridden by Zoï Snels, Global Champion TN already finished at the top of several stallion competitions and young horse competitions. For example, he ended up third in the KWPN Stallion Competition in Ermelo, while he became fourth in the GMB Competition. Again and again, Global Champion TN impresses with his enormous push from the floor, scope and endless possibilities.

With Hubert Bourdy sire Toulon gained an impressive record of achievements, with high placings in the GP of Sao Paulo (1st) and the Nations Cup in Rome (2nd). After those years the Heartbreaker-son performed also on the highest level with Jonella Ligresti. Several descendants of Toulon are following in his footsteps, like Bijou Orai, Athena and Dadjak ter Puttenen. The most successful horse out of this Holsteiner damline 6372 is Cellagon Lambrasco. This promising Tallmann TN is approved for the AES-Studbook and will be trained for the sport.
