Date measured

This photogenic colt Valentino is a son of the striking NRPS-licensed stallion This is Naqueen (by Trafalgar). During his performance test he received no less than four 10s and achieved the ultimate total score of 97 points! He also made a strong impression during the German performance test, where with a score of 9.07 he outperformed nearly all of the German and KWPN top stallions. This is Naqueen combines his outstanding talent with an excellent character.

Valentino loves attention and is a real cuddler. With a dam who successfully competed at ZZ-Licht level, he also carries excellent sport genes.

The direct damline furthermore includes the ZZ-Licht classified horse Bono (by Florencio I) and the Oldenburg licensed premium stallion Blue Hors Zalabaster (by Blue Hors Zack).

The dam is the Sport-dressage and ZZ-Licht classified mare Ibiza. Her sire Bretton Woods (by Johnson) was already hailed as “the new Totilas” in 2010 after winning both the VWF Prinsenstad competition and the VSN Trophy. The impressive black stallion quickly became one of the most talked-about young horses in Europe and covered a large number of mares in his first years.

Although opinions on his breeding value were initially divided, he has now proven himself as a true producer of sport horses. More and more offspring are appearing at international level: currently, seventeen Bretton Woods offspring are competing at Grand Prix, several at Intermédiaire II, and thirty-three at Small Tour level. This places him among the leading sires worldwide.

The granddam is the Z1 classified mare Winner (by Lord Sinclair I). Ibiza is her only offspring.

The great-granddam is the Oldenburg mare Harmonie (by Rubinstein I). In addition to Winner, she also produced the PROK-approved and ZZ-Licht classified Bono (by Florencio). Her brother is the Oldenburg Premium stallion Blue Hors Zalabaster (by Blue Hors Zack).

Father is the controversial NRPS approved stallion This is Naqueen (by Trafalgar). During his performance test he scored no fewer than 4 times the mark 10 and achieved the ultimate points total of 97!! The stallion also made himself heard during the performance test in Germany and with a 9.07 he beat almost all German and KWPN top stallions. This is Naqueen combines his great talent with a top character!

In January 2024, the stallion reached the final of the Subli competition held at Jumping Amsterdam and finished in a creditable 3rd place with a percentage of 72.6%. In March 2024, This Is Naqueen won the NRPS stallion competition class Z. He has now also reached the final selection round for the 2024 World Championship for Young Dressage Horses.
