We have bred Cincitty C (Numero UnoxRamiro) and recent days he competed with Henrik von Eckermann in the Bird’s Nest in Beijing. He had 1 bar in the CSI*** Longines Masters 2017 and became 11th. With the team (consisting of 2 Chinese riders and Henrik) they became 5th. In the time Cincitty was still owned by Ludger Beerbaum, Henrik also competed with Cincitty in Germany.
After his striking performance during the KWPN Championshipss in August, Highlander was allowed to compete in the World Championships for young showjumpers in Lanaken in September. The first day he was a bit tense, but the 2 days after he showed beautiful flawless rounds.
Incitty C is a son of Chacco Blue and Witty Luterra C. As a foal, he was sold to the Melssen family on the Prinsjesdag Auction. After 4 years, it was nice to visit him. He is currently trained for jumping and he already shows his talent.
Cavenna Citty C Z is a daughter of the topbreeding stallion Cicero van Paemel Z. Cicero is a son of legendary Carthago Z. Cicero performed at the highest level and at this moment his offspring are also successful in Grand Prix tournaments.
Cavenna Citty has a lot of appearance and a correct construction. She is the first daughter of Elite Mare Ditty Dante C, and thus a half sister of the KWPN-approved stallion Highlander (F. Numero Uno).
Her brothers are the KWPN approvesd stallion Highlander C, the Borculo-auctioned Jayblue Citty C and Limburgs champion Lowland Citty C. Cavenna is closely related to the Grand Prix horses Ucitty, Sitty alias Starlet, P. Titty Sobieski, Olano and Snowland. Also Cincitty (1.45m), Littus R (1.40m and KWPN Stallion champion) and Derbyland (1.40m) perform well.
Unfortunately, I have not found Enzo C (QuintenderxLupicor) yet. However, I found out that he has competed in Belgium in 2016 with rider Sander Geenen. He jumped at the 1.30m match at De Warre. Then Enzo apparently was sold to Canada. Hopefully I’ll find him again.
Half of July, 2 cousins are jumping at the international competition De Wolden. Both Fitty Faline C (Numero Uno x Witty Luterra C by Lupicor) and Fitty Firenze C/Fifty Fifty (Numero Uno x Vitty Valente C by Placido) start in the CSI ** Bronze Tour and in the 7-year Youngster classes. Faline aswel as Fifty had clear rounds at the first day!
Faline is ridden by the Norwegian rider Kristine Seierstad and Fifty is ridden by Marcel Beukers.
What a success for Fitty Firenze C! On June 2nd 2017 she became 2nd in the international competition in Wierden. She put down two flawless rounds and in the jump-off she had a very fast time of 43.38 seconds. Compared to the winner she only missed 0.13 seconds. Fitty Firenze is a daughter of Vitty Valente C. As a 4-year-old, Elite-Mare Fitty Firenze C became Champion of CK Noord-Holland and 2nd the National Mare Championships of the KWPN. Both in showjumping as at inspections she is very successful!
In the 2nd week of Tops International, Fitty Faline C (Numero UnoxLupicor) scored a magnificent 2nd and 3rd place in the Tops International Arena in Valkenswaard in the various categories. Fitty Faline competed in the CSI1* Medium Tour.
From 8 to 10 May 2017, Fitty Faline C and Kristine Seierstad competed in Valkenswaard in the CSI1* Medium Tour. The first day the first obstacle impressed Fitty, but then she jumped very well and even received the compliments of the speaker.
Day 2 Fitty Faline C was in her element and achieved a 2nd place after a very fast jump-off. She can turn very smoothly and easily.
The final also went perfectly. After the flawless first round, she had also no faults in the jump-off. There were a few very long lines built in this jump-off and Fitty Faline C became 5th with Kristine.
In April 2017, the breeders of well-performing offspring of stallions of the VDL Stud were honored. We also were invited for the ceremony. This holds for the championship of Lowland Citty C (Zirocco BluexVingino, Ditty Dante C).
