Nirvana V&V is the half-brother of the European and world champion Zenith SFN (by Rash R)! For years, Zenith made headlines with Olympic Champion Jeroen Dubbeldam. Dam Sasha descends from the 1.60m stallion Fuego du Prelet and produced, besides Zenith, the 1.40m horses Allegro (by Kojak) and Fortnight (by Padinus). Granddam Novelle (by Burggraaf) brought the 1.50m horse Rockefeller (by Larino) that made a career in the United States. Sire Farfan M is a son of the top progenitor Cantos. Out of his first crop, Farfan M produced the vice-champion of the KWPN Stallion Show. His pedigree is built with exclusively top sires: Cantos, Lux and Nimmerdor. Farfan M is active at 1.40m level himself.

Olympic genes come together in this eager Nashville. Sire Quabri de L’Isle made quite an impression at the Olympic Games of Rio de Janeiro with his Brazilian rider Pedro Veniss. This sensational son of Kannan ticks all the boxes as a sport horse and now his offspring show he has what it takes as a sire as well. Granddam Burg’s Samantha (by Silvester) and Bert Romp took part in the Olympic team of Atlanta. She also made a career in breeding and produced the 1.60m horse Amigo (by Coriano). Nashville’s dam Violetta B (by Koriander) gave the 1.40m horse Tinkerbell Z (by Toulouse). This damline also brought the 1.60m horses Miss Jacson (by Aloube Z) and Gazelle D’Aubry (by Lux Z).

Nullan HBC his dam Chup a Chup (by Tolan R) is a half-sister of the 1.60m horse Expert (by Tangelo vd Zuuthoeve) of Bart Bles, the pair took part in the Dutch team at the European Championships of Rotterdam. Chup a Chup herself already produced the 1.40m horse Ariana (by Cantos). The pedigree continues with the genes of Mermus R and Nimmerdor. The 1.60m horses Caramelo C (v.Hercules), Olona (v.Indoctro), Platini (v.Freedom Z), Captain (v.Unaniem) and Carthagena (v.Carthago) come out of the damline of Nullan HBC, just as the 1.40m KWPN-approved stallion Heart Touch (by Untouched). Sire Gullit HBC is a son of the preferente top sire Cantos, this promising stallion is now active in the 1.45m classes with Ernesto Canseco.

The jumper prospect Numos combines proven sport genes with the promising blood of the stallion Hardwell. Dam Bumosa is the full sister of the Grand Prix stallion and Zangersheide-approved Cosun of Rene Tebbel. This elite mare by Up to Date performed at 1.35m level herself. The international 1.45m horse Fumosa is another full sibling of Bumosa. Vittorio-daughter Eumosa is a half-sister of the dam and jumps international 1.55m classes. Granddam Umosa is a daughter of the 1.60m stallion Cavalier.

A big difference compared to other years is that the KWPN Select Sale will take place online, but with a live presentation. You can therefore see exactly which stallion is in the arena and what you can bid on via the livestream. Auctioneer Frederik de Backer will sell the stallions online. This way you still get the feeling of a real auction, with the convenience of online bidding. Check out the collection at online.kwpn.nl and register to be able to place a bid!
