Eos Borneo
His sire Epleaser van ’t Heike (Christian Ahlmann) is a son of the foundation stallion For Pleasure and top mare Valentina van ’t Heike, which competed under Jos Lansink in the London Olympic Games, won Bronze at the WC in Kentucky and won the 5* GPs of Abu Dhabi and Paris! Anyone who starts talking to Christian Ahlmann about Epleaser invariably gets the same answer. Epleaser was most likely one of the most careful horses Christian Ahlmann ever had under his saddle. He has an impressive roll of honour including wins like the Nations Cup in Aachen and the 5*GP of Villach Treffen and has competed up to international Grand Prix placing at top level shows. Epleaser ’s legacy in breeding so far amounts to thirteen horses active at 1.60m level and countless more horses ready to break through to that level.

His mother´s sire Zirocco Blue has had an exceptional international career under Dutch ace Jur Vrieling. In 2015, he was part of the gold medal-winning team at the Aachen European Championships, finishing fifth individually, and the pair also competed at the 2016 Olympic Games. He was in the top ten of the 2015 World Cup Final in Las Vegas, has been on four winning Nations Cup teams, and won the Oslo World Cup Qualifier.
His second mother Volantina Jacarina is a daughter of the KWPN stallion Valentino, an impressive jumper and outstanding sire, carrying the bloodlines of legends such as Voltaire and Nimmerdor and rated in the top 1% of German breeding stallions for the past several years with a jumper breeding value over 150. His offspring excel in hunters, show jumping and eventing and include medalists at the Young Horse Event Finals and qualifiers for the World Young Horse Championships. Valentino has produced numerous 1.40-1.50 jumpers and 2* eventers.
Volantina Jacarina brought so far two foals, both classified as premium and elite. After a successful oocyte pick up (OPU) this spring, Volantina Jacarina is now in her first season in sport.
