Dakar is a well-developed appealing grey stallion with a large and powerful canter that contributes to his notable scope. His sire, Cardento, jumped at the highest level and won Silver at the European Championship, the World Championship and at the Olympics in 2004. The legendary grandsire Nimmerdor was honored as ‘Stallion of the Century’. Continuing in his mare-line we come to the Grand Prix jumping stallion Silbersee, sire of Spender S and Calypso II, sire of world renowned Contender.
In Dakar’s dam line we see a lot of quality. Mother Nisolde ‘keur’ was the 3-year old Champion of the CK Groningen. She is also dam of the approved stallion Boss (Champion of the KWPN stallion inspections), Sunsolde (international jumper and Swedish Junior Champion) and Anisolde (Reserve Champion of the 5-year old jumping horses and now competing at 1.40m level under Kevin Staut). Granddam Isolde (also Champion of the CK Groningen) was designated ‘Keur, Preferent and Prestatie’ with the international offspring: Magnum, Candide and Alfalfa.
ACHIEVEMENTS:
As a 3-year old, Dakar passed his performance test beautifully. He received an 8,5 for his great scope and an 8 for self-carriage, canter, ride ability, attitude and potential as jumping horse.
Dakar and James Billington are notable in the stallion competitions. The stallion jumped clear in Enschede, Roosendaal, Zuidbroek and in the final round at ’s Hertogenbosch. He seems to have all the qualities for the higher and more complex courses. He shows a lot of scope, is fast, and has a great technique. In Enschede and Zuidbroek he placed 6th. His first foals are modern in type, long-legged and long-lined possessing a ground-covering and engaged canter. Idaletta M was the Reserve Champion at the Dutch Foal Championship and was Champion at the Provincial Foal Show of Overijssel. At the Provincial Foal Show of Zuid-Holland Ippon VDJ was honored as the Champion foal. Icelos Eickenrode placed 3rd at the foal show of Terschuur. In 2012 his son Holstein was honored as Champion of the jumper foals at the Provincial Foal Show of Flevoland.At the Belgian Horse Auction foal son, Nicardo was the topseller at € 20,000.
