Mattias vdl(Comme il faut) x Glasgow Van merelsnest x calido(2023)mare

A real one.

to make 16.2hh approx 3yo grey mare.

her sire mattias vdl is one of Jur Vrieling’s most promising future talents, impressing time and again with his canter, take off, and unlimited scope now at 160cm level 

 Moreover, he has already proven his value as a sire, having produced the KWPN Stallion licensing champion of 2025, Sixth Sense HBC.

Genetically, Mattias boasts an exceptional pedigree. He is not only sired by the renowned Comme Il Faut but is also a grandson -on his dam’s side- of the Grand Prix mare Sweet Tricia. This Berlin daughter secured victories such as in the 1.50m class of CSIO5 Barcelona* and the 1.50m Grand Prix of CSI3* Knokke. In the second generation, the Grand Prix horse progenitor Catoki adds his valuable genetics, having produced top-level performers like Ermitage Kalone, Contanga and Catch Me If You Can. Sire Comme Il Faut made history through Olympic champion Checker 47 and also sired standouts like Carla NRW, Chao Lee and Comthago. Mattias’ eldest offspring turn five this year and already show great promise.

”cerna” (Michael ) jumps 145cm classes with pim mulder of the Netherlands.

A Gorgeous dark grey 3yo gelding to make 16.2hh approx .

A well-bred young dressage prospect combining the modern bloodlines of Vaderland with the influential dam line of Sting and Leredie.

Troubadour is a 2023-born KWPN gelding, sired by Vaderland, the son of Vitalis, one of the most influential stallions in modern dressage breeding. Through Vitalis, he carries the highly sought-after blood of Vivaldi, renowned for producing horses with expressive movement, elasticity and an elegant modern type.

His dam, by Sting, brings the blood of Sunny Boy, adding further established dressage genetics to this interesting pedigree. The maternal line continues through Leredie, with the influential stallions Uniform and Weredie further back in the family.

This pedigree combines the modern dressage influence of Vaderland and Vitalis with established performance bloodlines on the dam’s side, making him an exciting prospect for someone looking to produce a quality horse for the future.

Under Dinja van Liere her sire McLaren OLD N.O.P.T. has achieved multiple successes. The pair won the KWPN Stallion Competition in the Light and Medium Tour, while their debut in ZZ-Licht in 2023 concluded with a winning score of over 77%. In 2025, they made their Light Tour debut nationally and internationally, confirming McLaren OLD N.O.P.T.’s sporting talent and Grand Prix potential.

McLaren OLD N.O.P.T. also excels in breeding. In 2025, three of his sons were licensed—two with the KWPN and one with Mecklenburg-Vorpommern—an impressive achievement underlining his value as a sire. His offspring are proving themselves under saddle as well: his daughter McMary won the PAVO Cup 2025 and was also named best mare of the competition, while his daughter Romy achieved the highest IBOP score in Lisse with 86.5 points. McLaren OLD N.O.P.T. himself has been awarded N.O.P.T. status, recognising his exceptional quality and potential for Dutch dressage sport and breeding.

McLaren OLD N.O.P.T. has an exceptional pedigree: his sire Morricone I is a champion stallion, while his dam Samatha is a state premium mare by the top sire Sir Donnerhall I, descending from Hauptstutbuch mare Gamita (Akzent II x Weltmeister). In addition to McLaren OLD N.O.P.T., Samatha produced two Light Tour horses and the Grand Prix horse Tokayer, active in the USA.

With his outstanding gaits, natural temperament, willingness to work, and top-class pedigree, McLaren OLD N.O.P.T. contributes to pedigree diversity, elegance, lightness, and rideability in dressage breeding. His offspring are typey, complete, and sport-oriented, consistently confirming the exceptional talent of this multi-champion.

Her dam is elite graded and further adds to her quality through sires Apache and whinny Jackson .

This is a a seriously smart horse . They are hard to find like her .

A top mover and a natural jumper, she will have a big career in dressage or indeed in eventing .
