The SBS approved stallions in the spotlight
The victory of the SBS approved stallion PIKAP DE MUZE Z (Ponsee V/Tinka's Boy) ridden by Christophe Vanderhasselt (BEL) in a 7-year-old horse event added up to his ranking in another one at the CSIYH of Bourg-en-Bresse (FRA) provides a good opportunity to look at the sporting performances of the stallions approved by the SBS. As for this weekend, many of them have made their way onto the international tracks with great success, such as HALIFAX VAN HET KLUIZEBOS (Heartbreaker/Fétiche du Pas) paired with Lorenzo de Luca (ITA) who was ranked twice over 1.50m at the CSIO5* in Roma (ITA), just where FILOU DE MUZE (Stakkato/Rubens du Ri d’Asse) and Lucia Le Jeune Vizzini competed in their first joint Nations Cup on behalf of Italy, while its own daughter GOTHAM CITY P.L. (R.O.+) (Filou de Muze/Final Shot – breeders : P. & Th. Lejeune in B-8690 Alveringem) added another victory to her already long list of successes at the CSI* in Uggerhalne (DEN). Earlier in the week, LECTOR VD BISSCHOP (Bamako de Muze/For Pleasure) and Karline De Brabander ranked themselves at the CSI2* of Valkenswaard (NED) over 1.40m. It was then ETERNITY DU SEIGNEUR (Ogano Sitte/Chellano Z – breeder: La Ferme du Seigneur in B-7387 Honnelles) and Belgian rider Arnaud Doem’s turn to distinguish themselves over 1.45m at Uggerhalne’s CSIO3*, Denmark.
The same applies across the Atlantic, where BUTTON SITTE (Ogano Sitte/Parco – breeder: Horse of Belgium in B-7904 Pipaix) and Richie Moloney ranked 15th of the 1.50m event at the CSI3* of Tryon (USA) meanwhile the US-exported approved stallion CURBY DU SEIGNEUR (Dorée van de Moskifarm/Ogano Sitte – breeder: La Ferme du Seigneur in B-7387 Honnelles) and Cara Dayton won in Saugerties (USA) at the CSI2* over 1.45m.
There is no need to say, SBS choices are more than consistent. (CA)
