Neymar is the young stallion that Dutch breeding needs; he has got rideability, intelligence and enormous scope. Neymar was therefore convincingly approved by the KWPN with 82,5 points. Sire Thunder van de Zuuthoeve may be seen as one of the most influential stallions in Belgian breeding.

Thunder van de Zuuthoeve combines the genes of the Hanoverian great Argentinus with the pride of VDL Stud, Nimmerdor. In sport, Thunder van de Zuuthoeve himself jumped at Grand Prix level with the Belgian Jan Van Dyck and in breeding he produced an unprecedented number of top showjumping horses. One of the most famous is McLain Ward’s HH Azur, who won the 2017 Omaha World Cup final. But also greats like Domino, Turbo Z, Kastelle Memo, Gunder, Domingo, Blue Thunder, Fleur de l'Aube, Israel van de Dennehoeve en Excenel V are all descendants of Thunder van de Zuuthoeve.

Nando’s grandsire Darco needs no further introduction; Darco is undeniably one of the leading sires of all time. Great-grandsire Stakkato Gold brings in the necessary reflexes and jumping technique and brought many Grand Prix showjumpers.
The damline of Neymar is one of the most sporty families of Hannover. Granddam Silberrose jumped at Grand Prix level with Pieter Clemens and McLain Ward and she impressed with her fantastic jumping technique, quality and attitude. In breeding, she already produced the Hanoverian premium stallion Golden Eye who also competes at international level. Great-granddam Veronica jumped at 1.35m level and is a daughter of the influential Calypso II daughter Carmen. She stood at the base of Stakkato Gold and international showjumpers like Silbermond, Dree Boeken’s Grossos Roeschen, Wertherroeschen, Dree Boeken’s Sandros Roeschen, Pewit Dezoito and Kolibris Vulkano Dree Boeken.
