Cincitty C (1.45m) sold to China
The last son of Citty is Cincitty C (Numero UnoxRamiroxJoostxAbgar). After a successful career in the Netherlands, including his performance at the 2nd viewing of the KWPN Stallion inspection and finals of the GMB young showjumpers tour with Danny Schaper, Cincitty was sold as five-year-old to Germany. This happened at the auction of Holger Hetzel, where Ludger Beerbaum and Geir Gulliksen bought him.
In Germany he was competing by different riders (including riders of Beerbaum Stables). His last rider in Germany was Sebastian Adams, where he was jumping at 1.45m level. However, he is recently sold to China to continue his showjumping career.

In the field Kaneblue Citty C is already dominating the other horses. It is a real stallion, playful, he bites sometimes, but also heartwarming. He is getting his grey color now.
