Fifi van de Claevervallei is the perfect choice for someone who wants to compete at levels 110 to 130 or higher and perhaps breed a top-class foal. The breeder includes the experience of breeding with this fantastic dam line free of charge. Fifi van de Claevervallei is a stunning, versatile mare with an unparalleled, golden temperament. This 13-year-old mare has top-notch pedigree and comes directly from the breeder. Darco x Numero Uno x Cartago x Calypso II. Fifi vdC stands at approximately 164 cm and is healthy and in good condition. She is eligible for inspection. Fifi vdC is primarily a show jumper, but given her abundant bloodlines, she can just as easily be used for eventing, and she can also hold her own in dressage. Although Fifi vdC has an exceptionally sweet temperament and a winner’s mentality, she may not be immediately suitable for a true beginner rider. Fifi vdC currently competes up to 130, but feels most comfortable at the 1m20 level; however, with a good rider and guidance, she certainly has the quality to move up another level. If you’re looking for a stunning, spirited mare with a sublime, golden temperament combined with quality, look no further. Videos can be viewed under her name on YouTube. She’s also extremely interesting as a broodmare. We ourselves will continue breeding with her daughter, Wifi vdC by Eldorado van de Zeshoek. (last photo) Fifi van de Claevervallei is a top Holstein (18a2) (breeding) mare for show jumping—with her, you have a unique opportunity to acquire a top broodmare from one of Holstein’s finest lines: Fifi van de Claevervallei (Darco x Numero Uno x Carthago x Calypso II x Nevado xx), a Holstein mare from Line 18A2.

Sire Darco is legendary and needs little introduction in Belgium; moreover, it has been proven that Darco as a sire—and dam—is of immense value.
Her sire, Numero Uno, is the sire of the Elite Preferente stallion from the Netherlands. His value is beautifully described at this link: http://www.dbfs.nl/kennis…/merrielijnen/holstein-numero-uno/
He was a supplier to the Royal Household at Zangersheide during the 2018 World Championships for Young Horses. Numero Uno continues to make a name for himself. Article from *De Paardenkrant* dated January 23, 2019, on page 13: “Numero Uno’s offspring in the lead.” The Preferente-class Numero Uno (s. Libero H) produced the winner in both the six- and seven-year-old classes. Neverland Z (dam: Carthago), ridden by Jeroen Appelen, claimed victory in the six-year-old class after the jump-off. Jan Vermeiren and Mr. Uno-K van ’t Kattenheye (dam: Kannan) repeated that feat in the seven-year-old class.
In this article, you’ll notice that Neverland Z has the same pedigree (Numero Uno x Carthago) as Bjork VDC. In the Netherlands as well, Jager claimed the title in the 5-year-old Blom Cup; he also has the same pedigree: Numero Uno x Carthago. The January 2019 issue of Strengen Magazine KWPN also mentions this on page 67 under the title: “Leader Numero Uno.” Here it is described that Numero Uno is the stallion with the best hereditary traits, based on the ranking of most common sires, with Numero Uno convincingly at the top; 74 of his offspring from 2008, 2009, and 2010 compete at 1.40 or higher.
Furthermore, in Fifi vdC’s pedigree, she is descended from the two elite Holstein sires, namely Carthago and Calypso II, and carries the necessary thoroughbred blood through the renowned thoroughbred Nevado xx.
Renaissance VIII, the dam, is the full sister of the international show jumper and most approved stallion son of Carthago Z, C-Trenton Z, who jumped 1.60m with Torben Köhlbrandt. C-Trenton Z is the only horse to have jumped four consecutive clear rounds in the Hamburg Derby and finished second twice with Zilver. See YouTube under his name: https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=C+-+trenton
Her other full brother, Senna M, is a winner in the U.S. and also won the VSN Trophy, the national championship for 3-year-olds in the Netherlands; he jumps at 1.40m.
Renaissance’s dam, K-Jade, is the full sister of the approved stallion Classiker (by Calypso II) and a half-sister of Regent 145spr. She is also
the granddam of:
EASYBOY (EXORBITANT XX x CALANDO IV) – Z-level show jumping/1.30m
LEIKA III (LORD CALANDO x CALYPSO III) – Z-level show jumping/1.30m
CALIDA (CALIDO I x CALYPSO III) – 1.60m show jumping
MISS MAUSI (ARIADUS x CARETINO) – Z-level show jumping/1.30m
CARISSMO 2 (CARETINO x CALYPSO III) - 1.40m show jumping
CLINSMANN JUN. B (CASSINI I x CARETINO) - ZZ show jumping/1.35m - Approved by SA, BAVAR
More information about the dam, Renaissance VIII, can be found on the website: https://www.leinsterstud.com/renaissance-viii
At the KWPN stallion show in Den Bosch in 2008, her brother Acanisto M, out of Renaissance, was selected for the performance test and currently jumps at the 140-level. Renaissance’s sister, Thiara M, is the dam of the 1.60 m jumper Oak Grove’s Battle Cry, Cristel Optimus 160—who has already produced several top-class offspring—and Diacento, who jumps at the 155 level. Also sired by Renaissance is the brother Casilas SR (by Berlin), who is already competing at the International Grand Prix level.
Monessa, the grandmother of Renaissance, also produced the 1.45m show jumper Regent. The 1.60m show jumper Callida also traces back to Monessa, as do Chriras (140spr), Carewa (150spr), and Hot Chocolate (140spr).
The 18A2 line is considered one of the most established lines in Holstein. This outstanding line has produced a long list of horses that compete at the highest level in show jumping, as well as more than 100 approved stallions. To name just a few in Belgium: the standout of his crop, Di Cantero van ter Hulst; Cian O’Conner; as well as other well-known horses such as the highly impressive Escape Z and now Ecclestone under Harry Smolders; one of the most prolific sires, Untouchable 27; C-Trenton z; and Quvee Prestige, Reserve Champion of the Holstein Stallion Show—see video at the link; https://www.facebook.com/ChristianHessShowjumping/videos/1471098496287735/ Casalitto (German Young Horse Champion at 5 years old, Top 10 in the 6- and 7-year-old categories, and already jumping at level 150 at 8 years old—see link; https://www.facebook.com/…/pcb.172454054…/1724539537610295/… Calle Cool, 3-time winner of the Hamburg Derby; Churchill de Hus, Arkino Z, Cascadeur, Chambertin, Carambo van de Helle, Dakota P, Crackerjack de Barcenal Z, Colicchio, Carrado MvNZ, N’oubliez jamais, Davidoff v. Schl’hof Ch, Cascadeur, Gentleman, Cantares van de Helle, Lennon, Linaro, Classiker, etc…etc…etc… The list of sport horses competing at a high level is even longer than that of the approved stallions. Every year, horses emerge from this top line. An interesting detail about the 18a2 line is that the world’s No. 1 stallion in terms of breeding ability, Chacco Blue, is sired by Chambertin—who is also from the 18a2 line. The mare is otherwise healthy and very fertile, with no (stable) defects. We’d be happy to provide further information. If you’re looking for an exceptional broodmare, this is a unique opportunity. The importance of a very good maternal line is beautifully described at this link: http://paarden.vlaanderen/nl/themas/fokkerij/Het-belang-van-bloedlijnen-in-de-sportpaardenfokkerij
