WHITE SOX VDB

White Sox VDB is a young stallion with a lot of presence, quality and elastic flowing gaits. He has a calm temperament and kind, willing nature that is exceptionally hard to come by and is already winning him many fans; he was bred in Belgium by the Zangersheide Stud from some of the best performance stallions in the world.
He was imported to the UK in 2008 where he is competing at affiliated show jumping and dressage and covering a select number of mares.

His Sire, both grandsires and all four great-grandsires jumped not just internationally, but at Grand Prix level, combining ability and attitude, his great-grandparents have so far bred more than a dozen Olympic horses between them in both dressage and showjumping.

Orame was the first stallion to become Champion in both the Stallion Selection in Den Bosch and in the Stallion Test. Orame received high marks for his movement and jumping sub-divisions. In his report Orame was said to be very talented as a dressage horse as well as a show jumper and that he jumped with scope, good technique, a lot of power, and is very careful. In 2003 he was the winner of the stallion competition for Z level jumping and recent international wins include the $100,000 Culpeper Grand Prix, USA and the Nations Cup at Falsterbo.

Orame’s dam, Iramee, is an Elite mare and bred the same way as Ratina Z, who won World Cup Finals, the European Championships, the Grand Prix of Aachen, individual Olympic Silver, double Olympic Team Gold, Team Gold at the WEG, and twice team gold at the European championships. The stallions Ramiro and Alme combined have produced more top horses like Rinetou Z, Jalisco, Galoubet, Renate La Silla, Robin Z.

Indoctro is no.1 on the USEF list of showjumping stallions, and in Germany he ranks second on the index. He is the best Dutch approved stallion in the German list, and Holland's most promising stallion at this moment. He was performance champion with top marks for his jumping and was champion of the 4 year olds jumping Championship and champion of the Stallion Competition and placed in the final of the 5 year old jumping horses Championship. His son, Run DMC won the 2003 World Young Jumping Horse 7 Year old championship before being sold at the PSI auction.

Indoctro’s dam sire, Caletto II is the sire of Olympic gold medallist, Classic Touch.

Ramiro has earned himself the title - 'Stallion of the Century'. During his sporting career, Ramiro had numerous wins at all levels of showjumping - Nations Cups, Puissance (jumping over 2.2 metre) and in international Grand Prix competition. It is simply impossible to mention all his successful progeny.

Clever Girl Z carries some of the best blood lines from the world famous Zangersheide stud. Her sire (Virtual Village) Cartagene Z, a consistent winner with Nick Skelton at Grand Prix, A4 and power and speed competitions, is described by Nick’s yard as very likeable and easy.

Capitol I was known as “the horse out of a fairy tale”. This monumental stallion is justly deemed one of the best Holstein jumper-makers in Germany if not in the whole world. His off-spring have earned the most money in the sport of any stallion in the world, competing at the World Championships and Olympic Games. At the Olympic Games in Sydney alone, four of his off-spring participated.

Purioso is a prolific producer of sportshorses and has sired Olympic horses in both dressage (Cocktail, Anky Van Grunsen) and showjumping (Ambush, Wendella)
