Escape Z X Grand Cru VD Vijf Eiken (1.60m Contact VD Heffinck X Heartbreaker) over 45% blood
Homebred, Professionally broken and slowly produced in his 4yo year with a clean record and =1st placings in 4yo classes. Very correct in his way of going with 3 balanced and expressive paces, established changes and superb flatwork. Brave and easy to a fence, very careful and less is more ride who you can sit and enjoy. Loves to work and learn and would go all day, forward going, responsive ride. Has been to the beach and in the sea, introduced to XC schooling and been through the water and up/down steps. Carefully produced with his future in mind. Good for Farrier, travel, bath, trim etc. and very easy to handle on the ground.
Directly by Escape Z (Emerald X Heartbreaker) and The dam herself is sired by Conor Swail’s former ride ‘Grand Cru VD Vijf Eiken’, now a Canadian team horse at the highest level. The 3rd mother ‘Joyeuse vd Meir’ is a Primo des Bruyere’s daughter, a sire who made history as father of the Olympic champion Jus de Pommes..
This is the same mother line of the top sires Uriel, Sheyenne de Baugy , Sioux de Baugy and Quidam de Revel. The direct dam line is also littered with 1.50m jumpers, PSG dressage and 3* Eventers. The highly sort after line SF7.
We have also had numerous comments on his potential to excel in American Hunters, this horse could honestly excel in any sphere you choose, his will to work and learn is above any horse I have ever experienced and I can not sing his praises enough.
Circumstances force the very sad sale of this much loved homebred. Happy to discuss with serious buyers.
Open to any and all checks, and has full set of clean x rays including neck and back before we backed him. Fully UTD with vaccines, worming, farrier etc (barefoot trim)
He will only be considered to a 10* competitive home
