Glasgow is a son of the top sire Nabab de Rêve combined with one of the best mares in Belgium, Wendelina van’t Merelsnest – a mare that has competed at Grand Prix level herself and is a full sister to the superstar Sapphire, who won two Olympic Gold medals with team USA.  Wendelina also brought two approved stallions, Edjaz and Koblenz van’t Merelsnest. Grand dam Idjaz C foaled international jumpers Lapino, Qarco van ’t Merelsnest and Vincenzo van ’t Merelsnest.
