Liamant W is a son of the top sire Diamant de Semilly, who ridden by Eric Levallois was among world’s best showjumpers. In breeding, Diamant de Semilly produced countless Grand Prix showjumpers, such as Emerald (Harrie Smolders), Don VHP Z (Harrie Smolders), Inca Boy van 't Vianahof (Edwina Tops-Alexander), Utamaro d'Ecaussinnes (William Whitaker & Niels Bruynseels) and many others.

Grandsire Heartbreaker is without a doubt one of the leading stallions of the past decades and is seen as perhaps the best dam’s sire of the moment. Great-grandsire Baloubet du Rouet is the third jumping phenomenon in a row in the pedigree of Liamant W and may be called a true legend.

The dam of Liamant W is Zarina III - a daughter of the Grand Prix jumping mare Untouchable who was successfully ridden by Leon Thijssen. In breeding, Untouchable became famous as the dam of Explosion W. Ridden by Ben Maher this Chacco Blue-son is one of world’s finest and last year won the Global Champions Tour Grand Prix-competitions of Doha, Madrid and Rome and became 2nd in Shanghai and Doha.

 

Palmares

At the age of only three, Liamant W has already made a name for himself on the international stage. At the KWPN Stallion Show in 's-Hertogenbosch, he was one of the most remarkable showjumping stallions and he was honored as 3rd in the champions ring. At the stallion show of Zangersheide in Lanaken, Liamant W  was once again one of the most talked-about stallions and earned his breeding license.  

Liamant W is an example of a modern showjumper: blood, light-footed, good reflexes and athletic ability. Both at the KWPN Stallion Show and at Zangersheide he convinced with his consistent and well-balanced way of jumping, always jumping up with the withers and expressing an excellent jumping technique.

Liamant W seems to have everything to follow in the footsteps of his successful uncle Explosion W and jumps now at 1.20m level but he is nearly ready to make the step to 1.30m classes.
