Her sire Untouched was a top talent from an early age and stood out under the saddle of Mathijs van Asten. In fact, he was so noticed that he was purchased by Neil Moffit, who housed the stallion with British legend Nick Skelton. With Skelton, Untouched already jumped successfully at Grand Prix level and became second in the Grand Prix of Wellington, among other things. Ben Maher then took over the reins and made a big impression on the Global Champions Tour circuit with Untouched. Unfortunately, the stallion suddenly died unexpectedly in Maher’s stables. Untouched is also convincing in breeding: his first sons have already been approved by various studbooks. United Touch S under Richard Vogel recently proofed the quality and enormous potential for the future wining the FEI Jumping World Cup of Stuttgart in their world cup debut with an incredible fast jump off.
Regina du Mirador is a French-registered mare with remarkable Dutch roots. Her sire Papillo Rouge is a more than proven sport and stud stallion. He himself competed at the Olympic Games and subsequently provided the sport and breeding-world with well-known names such as VDL Groep Fleche Rouge, Trésor, Mozart des Hayettes and Hors la Loi II.
In Regina Papillo Rouge is combined with the top mare Degina. The daughter of Grand Prix stallion Jasper out of a Dutch dam line competed at the highest level under the top French rider Michel Robert. The duo came second in the French Championship and won the Nations Cup at the CSIO Gijon with the French team.
Degina is selectively used in breeding and in addition to Regina also produced Cegina du Mirador Z (2008). This Calvaro Z-son is competing at 1.55m-level with the Portuguese Luis Ferreira.
Degina also has two full sisters who have shown themselves to be very valuable in both sport and breeding. Sister West Side Story competed up to 1.60m-level and produced the same level Careful Girl (Leslie Howard) and finally there is Degina’s sister Egina. She competed at Z-level and is the dam of the 1.45m-level horses Luiza and Alfina.
