Pedigree :
| Cardento | Capitol I |
| B-Estelle | |
| Nisolde | Nimmerdor |
| Isolde |
Dakar’s sire, Cardento, won Silver at the European Championship, the World Championship and at the Olympics. The legendary grand sire Nimmerdor was honored as ‘Stallion of the Century’. Looking at Dakar’s mare-line we come to the Grand Prix jumping stallion Silbersee, sire of Spender S and Calypso II, sire of world renowned Contender.
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 (1.40m jumpers). Grand dam Isolde (also Champion of the CK Groningen) was designated ‘Keur, Preferent and Prestatie’ with the international offspring: Magnum, Candide and Alfalfa.
As a 3-year old, Dakar passed his performance test handily. Dakar jumps at international 1.50m with James Billington. As an 8-year old Dakar jumped to 7th place in the 1.50m level Derby of Drammen.
As a 7-year old he became Champion of the Stallion Competition 1.30m/1.35m level. There were more great results: At the CSI Roosendaal was a 5th place in the youngster Tour and a 7th in the Final. He placed 7th in the 7-year old class at CSI de Wolden. In addition there were clear rounds in the following classes: 1.40m CSI Lichtenvoorde, 1.35m CSI Wierden and 1.35m CSI Salland. As 6-year old Dakar placed 2nd in the final of the Youngster Tour in Roosendaal and had clear rounds at CSI Asten and CSI de Wolden.
Dakar’s first offspring are turning 6 years old. They are modern, long-legged and long-lined horses with a ground covering and engaged canter. They jump with scope, good technique and have the right mentality.
Izel BB was reserve champion of the 4-7-year old jumpers at the ONNK. Heurese was reserve champion of the 4-7-year old jumpers at the CK Zeeland and Jedoselli W was reserve champion of the 3-year olds at the Central Mare Show of Overijssel. Knegt’s Icelos won the Free Jumping Championships in Oirschot, and Imani was 2nd of the 4-year olds.
In 2013 Idaletta M was the Champion at the CK Overijssel and reserve champion at the Dutch Foal Championship. At the Belgian Horse Auction foal son, Nicardo was the top seller at Ä 20.000 and Orfana van de Ultrahoeve was 4th in the Belgian Championship Free Jumping for 2-year olds.
Jumping index KWPN: 149.
