Graziano 2017

Graziano is a son of the talented Quaprice-son, Baltic VDL, who is already successful in both sport and breeding as a young stallion. Grannus-son and half brother to Bubalu VDL, Great Pleasure has brought a large number of international show jumpers. The thoroughbred Mytens xx adds blood. Foundation sire Nimmerdor and Joost add solidity and performance in Graziano’s pedigree.\r\nBesides a strong line of sires Graziano also comes from a well-founded mareline. Dam Rienaldine is ‘Ster’ and she is the daughter of the ‘Ster and Preferent’ mare Haldine. Among Haldine’s numerous offspring are 1.30m jumpers. Other grandchildren are the Grand Prix and Nations Cup show jumper Seraldo and international jumpers Woody WH, Urlando, Appel WH and Zapp WH. From this direct damline also comes Albert Zoer’s famous Grand Prix jumper and approved stallion, Faldo.
