The SF-stallion Koro d’Or (Elf d’Or x Micko Platiere) – previously one of Michel Robert’s top horses - has been retired from the sport at the age of 12.·Koro d’Or has been off the international circuit for the past two years, and even though the bay stallion has recovered from the operation he went through it has been decided that he will not continue his career as a showjumper. Koro d’Or – who had his first crop of foals last year – will now be used exclusively for breeding purposes.
