We have leased our Grand Prix jumpstallion Modesto for breeding to the stables of Karsten Nörenberg in Germany.
Modesto is a son of Grandeur, who jumped at Grand Prix level out of the famous dam line, the Sina-line. Long recognized as a superlative supplier of world class jumpers, approved sons and exceptional breeding daughters. Well-known horses from this line are MacKinley, Cavalier, VDL Rocksina, VDL Emmerton, Heechiem’s Tersina, Vivaldi K, Nerina, Obelix, etc. Modesto retired from an impressive career as a show jumper. An anchor for the French show jumping team with his rider, Jean Marc Nicolas, the stallion had honor rounds in the Nations Cup competitions in Rotterdam, Rome, Lissabon, Lyon and Lummen. Individually, Modesto was ridden to 2nd place at the World Cup finals and was successful throughout the World Cup series: 2nd in Leipzig, 3rd in Gothenburg, 5th and 6th in Vigo, 7th in Stuttgart, Verona and Bordeaux. This incredibly consistent stallion won and placed at many Grand Prix as well: 1st in Vilamoura and Pontedera, 2nd in Vigo, Kuala Lumpur, Madrid, Aachen, Leeuwarden and Vejer de la Frontera, 3rd in Birmingham, Comporta and Porimao, 4th Lissabon, Paris and Barcelona, 5th in Porto, Vienna and Bremen, 6th in La Coruna, etc. The World Equestrian Games in Aachen was also a stop on Modesto’s career tour. Modesto gained additional recognition several times by earning as high as ninth place on the ranking lists of The World Breeding Federation of Sport Horses.
