Sire 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 jumped three clear rounds during the Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro! He already competed at the major championship; 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! Verdi is now enjoying his well-deserved retirement and can look back on Olympic team silver, team gold at the WEG, European team gold, and many other prizes.
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.
Verdi’s offspring prove themselves time and again. Son Chaplin won three Global Champion Tours, Evita SG became 2nd in the GP of Falsterbo, Fleurette won the Worldcup in Washington, Varoune became the champion of Belgium and Ibelle and Cuidam participated in the world championships in Tryon.
After dominating the showjumping sport for many years, Verdi is now one of the top sires worldwide.
Olivia’s mother line is also to be taken note of; the line has produced many international jumpers to 1.45m level!
