Zira VH Kapelhof, is a world class mare, who has partnered Anthony Condon to many Grand Prix wins up to 1.60m level, including representing Team Ireland at Nations Cup shows, plus 18 International wins, 5 of them being 5* wins and 26 top 3 international placings. A Half Sibling of this colt, FF Ziidam Z, achieved the top lot at last year’s Bolesworth Elite Auction selling for £30k. For years, the striking Utamaro d’Ecaussines Z was one of the most successful showjumping stallions in the world. With the top three riders Joe Clee, William Whitaker and Niels Bruynseels, the stallion soared to Grand Prix, World Cup, and Nations Cup victories. He competed at the World Equestrian Games in Normandy and the European Championships in Aachen, the World Equestrian Games in Tryon, the European Championships in Gothenburg and won the World Cup at London Olympia. Utamaro’s dam competed at 1.45m level and is the sister of the 5* 1.60m Grand Prix mare Dame Blanche van Arenberg, secured numerous podium finishes with Penelope Leprevost, including a victory in the 2014 Nations Cup in La Baule, proudly sharing podium with Utamaro Z who came third with Joe Clee and British team. This colt has everything going for him as both a future Grand Prix winner and sire.
