The FEI European Championships Riesenbeck 2023 are in full swing, and there are several fantastic offspring of Blue Hors stallions competing at the highest level of dressage!

And it’s not just the commentators who have noticed that one particular stallion has made a mark as a sire. Of course, we are talking about Blue Hors rider Nanna Skodborg Merrald’s Olympic partner, Blue Hors Zack (by Rousseau – Jazz, breeder: Bas Wilschut), who has a total of 6 offspring competing in the championship classes.
