HIS SIRE
VAN GOGH: CHAMPION OF THE KWPN STALLION PERFORMANCE TEST 2005
Van Gogh was the undisputed KWPN performance test champion of 2005. This son of Numero Uno was not only rewarded for his great jumping skills but also his fantastic movement. Take-off and technique were rewarded with 8.5, scope with 9.0 and his incredible canter with 9.5. The stallion performance test report states that Van Gogh shows strong movement in walk, trot and canter, that he jumps with a good take-off and develops lots of scope. He is currently competing very successfully at international Grand Prix level under Marco Kutscher and numerous successes include the 2015 Los Angeles Longines Masters.

The 2015 show season was a tremendous success for Van Gogh and Marco Kutscher, winning the GCT GP in Valkenswaard, the CSI5* LA Masters GP and the CSI5* Hong Kong GP 2016. These great performances have resulted in this combination being preliminary nominated for the 2016 Olympics in RIO.
Van Gogh is by the superb stallion Numero Uno. Numero Uno proved himself as a competitor, and now continues to prove himself as a formidable sire of jumpers. He is the 2015 WBFSH #30 stallion.
Van Gogh’s damline originates in the mare Miesje. In addition to his successful full sisters, this breeding family produced several international show jumping and dressage horses. Some examples are the spectacular jumper Der Senaat III (Abdel Said) and the impressive KWPN stallion Charmeur (Emmelie Scholtens).
Van Gogh’s offspring are known by their appealing types, good movement, rideabilty and excellent jumping skills.

While the 4 year old mare Ereprijs scored the highest points at the EPTM mare performance test at Sleen (Netherlands) and got a 8.5 for scope and rideability. Her full sister Duizendschoon became mare champion at the mare test in Overijssel and reached the fifth place during the national mare test when she was 3 years old.
