Solaris
Flambeaux, a chic, modern, elegant, bay colt, strikingly marked
with his two front white socks and two hind stockings. From
birth he has shown quality in his movement with exceptional
reach in all three paces. His Trot is truly off the floor
at every stride and his canter powerful and uphill with a
very long stride in walk.
Flambeaux is bred in the purple with both Internationally
recognised World Class jumping and dressage bloodlines including
Krack C, Contender, Nimmerdor, G Ramiro Z, Grand Veneur, Flemmingh,
Pik Konig and Wendekries.
Flambeaux is a very special colt for us as he is very much
the product of our own breeding program. His sire is our own
Amoureux and his dam "Solaris Achanenna" a hombred
filly by Umenno who combines the bloodlines of Nimmerdor and
Pericles that when combined through Glendale produced the
great Moorlands' Totilas dam Lomminka.
Achanenna's dam is also a hombred SSH "Ster" mare
"Solaris Chiquita" out of our foundation State performance
tested and successful showjumping "Keur" mare "Quinine"
who had a successful career in sport. Chiquita is a combination
of two very influencial bloodlines "Contender" and
Grand Veneur that are found in the bloodlines of many great
show jumpers such as Le Tot De Semilly and more recently Diarado
that sold at auction for over one million Euros to Paul Schokemohle,
the Holstein Verband and Joop van Uytert.
The bloodlines:
His sire "Amoureux" has consitently won young horse
qualifiers with scores of 78-80% having qualified for Badmington
Young Dressage Horse Of The Future, Sheerwater Potential International
Dressage Horse, the Sheetwater British National Young Dressage
Horse both as a five and six year old under International
Grand Prix Dressage Rider Michel Assouline, with a Double
win at Sheepgate Premiere League in the Hickstead Young Horse
Qualifier and Medium SOQ75 and a finalist in the Sheerwater
6YO Championship. The duo also qualified for the Regional
Championships placing ninth in the most difficult of the medium
tests M75 with just a years training under saddle and with
very little competition experience.
Saros Van T'Gestelhof
Sired by the Belgian approved dual purpose stallion Saros
Van 'T Gestelhof, a son of G Ramiro Z out of a Pik Koenig
x Wendekries mare, Saros sired the Belgium champion foal 2003
and currently has an exterior index of 188 earning him elite
status at the young age of seven. He had obtained over 50
victories from the age of 4 – 7 with 17 wins at Prix
st Georges, placing 4th at the World Championships
in Verden in the six year old class. Other wins include the
Belgian 4, 5 and six year old Dressage Champion title. Saros'
progeny are equally as talented in jumping as they are in
dressage. Saros's sire is the famous G Ramiro Z who competed
in classes of 2.20m and perhaps most renown as sire of the
famous Olympic gold medallist Ratina Z out of the famous Holstein
mare Heureka Z. This combination of German bloodlines has
conistantly proven to be a winning combination.
Erle (Pik Koenig x Wendkreis)
Saros's dam, "Erle", carries "elite"
status, claiming the National Champion mare titles in 1983
1984 & 1985 and mother to a number of dressage horses,
