20. SAPHIR

A jewel that already knows how to shine.

This beautiful grey is a real eye-catcher, combining his striking appearance with an equally convincing character. Relaxed, composed and clear-minded, Saphir approaches new questions with remarkable calm. Very little unsettles him, a particularly valuable quality in such a young horse. Under saddle, the same positive impression continues: he works with concentration, accepts new demands naturally and always gives the feeling that his education can be developed step by step. Despite his young age, he already has pleasant routine without having been pushed ahead of his natural development. He is a youngster who is enjoyable to produce and in whom further investment in time and training looks highly worthwhile.

Saphir's pedigree underlines his top-class potential: Iron Man van de Padenborre x Cicero Z van Paemel x Chellano Z.

His record is already remarkable for a five-year-old. He has won three international Youngster classes for five-year-olds and can also look back on ten victories and numerous further placings in national young-horse classes abroad. As a four-year-old he already gained valuable championship experience at the Belgian Championships for four-year-old showjumpers. Saphir is therefore a young stallion who has already seen a great deal while still having his entire sporting development ahead of him. He is ready to continue his education and grow with every new challenge.

Saphir is made to shine.
