TOP AMATEUR HORSE This six-year-old showjumping talent combines a beautiful, long-lined conformation with excellent jumping qualities. She displays great balance in her canter, shows a lot of scope over the fences, and has a bright future ahead. Roosje van ‘t Zomerhof is a half-sister to the 1.45m level showjumper Pipaline van ‘t Zomerhof (s.Diamant de Semilly), who has already performed well in several ranking classes at the age of eight under Maxim Godecharle this year. Granddam Topaline van de Gasthoeve herself performed on 1.40m level. This well-bred Roosje van ‘t Zomerhof combines three Grand Prix sport and breeding stallions in her pedigree and traces back to a Thoroughbred mare in the third generation. Her sire, Aktion Pur Z, boasts a remarkable sporting career under Judy-Ann Melchior, and his oldest offspring are already achieving good results on 1.45m level. Dam Jera van het Zomerhof contributes valuable performance genes from Cicero Z and the influential stallion Darco.
