Chronos is currently being professionally schooled by top showjumper Lisa Coupe and he will be available for trial rides by appointment at her stable in Cambridge, New Zealand.
Sire: Eros K
His sire Eros K was twice ESNZ jumping stallion of the year. Imported from Ireland into New Zealand Eros K was a successful world cup jumper and was well known for his scope, bravery, rideability, stunning looks and phenomenal nature.
Eros K unfortunately passed suddenly as he was coming into his prime. His progeny left has been strongly stamped with his best qualities and will be valuable jumpers in the coming years as they continue his legacy.
Sire’s Sire: Guidam
Guidam, has been ranked No.1 in KWPN breeding index and No.1 in USEF jumper sires rankings. He is the sire of 35 Grand Prix and International Showjumpers including Authentic, USA Horse of the Year 2004 and Olympic Gold Medalist – and very much one of the stars of the 2006 WEG in Aachen, Luidam, the 2004 Aga Khan Nations Cup Winner and Liona, ridden by Hervé Godignon who rode Guidam’s sire, Quidam de Revel, to team bronze at Barcelona.
“Guidam possesses, as a stallion, all the genetic qualities of his father Quidam de Revel, but I believe he passes on more rideability to his progeny. The bottom line is that he produces the goods,” says Dutch showjumper and dealer, Paul Hendrix.
In November 2004, Guidam was awarded a ‘Keur’ predicate by the KWPN and was the 2003-2004 leader on the jumping breeding index with an outstanding rating of 171. His stallion sons are at stud in Holland, Germany, United Kingdom, United States and Poland with a high percentage of predicate daughters also at stud.
