16.3hh holsteiner/hanoverian mare, bred by Justine Donohoe of Wimborne Park Stud in Australia, and purchased and imported by us in 2009. Chloe is out of our super talented foundation mare, Gradina (combining the bloodlines of Grannus II, Falkrich and Fremder), and this athleticism combined with the holstein power in her sire line has resulted in an exceptional performance mare. Chloe has very straight conformation with elevated, scopey movement, lovely topline and a great front end.
Chloe's sire line carries the blood of the Contender son, Contendro I. Contendro I was the winner of his performance test at Adelheidesdorf in 2000 with the highest scores in both dressage and jumping and like his sire, is one of the most popular stallions in holstein. The sire line also carries the blood of the super broodmare producer Bolero (also the sire of Brentano II) who produced 51 approved stallions and 73 state premium mares as well as numerous top level competition horses. Contenda himself is now competing very successfully to 2* eventing and is being aimed at the 2016 Rio Olympics with his rider, Olympic silver medallist Shane Rose. We are the sole importer of Contenda semen to NZ -click here for more information.
Chloe is in the ridden team and we plan to take embryos from her.
