EYECATCHER 111 Z

El Barone 111 Z × Dinikita 111 Z – The youngest pearl of Foal Auction 111

Abdel Said Sporthorses and Stud 111 proudly present this exceptionally bred mare by El Barone 111 Z out of Dinikita 111 Z. She combines the very best of Stud 111 with the world-renowned Van de Bisschop breeding programme of the Decraene family. Furthermore, with her birth date of 20 July, she is the youngest foal in the entire collection. Although she is still very much in development, she already displays the presence, balance and quality that characterise her remarkable lineage.

Her dam Dinikita 111 Z herself possesses an exceptional amount of quality and seemed to have everything it takes for a successful sporting career. Unfortunately, an injury at a young age put an end to that ambition, meaning she can now pass on her exceptional talents through breeding. The quality, suppleness and natural balance that she herself possesses are already clearly visible in this young filly.

Dinikita is a daughter of De Flor 111 Z Santa Rosa and comes directly from Nikka van de Bisschop, one of the most successful sport mares of her generation. Ridden by Erynn Ballard, Nikka represented Canada at the Paris 2024 Olympic Games and also achieved numerous top placings at CSI5 level up to 1.65m. With this, she proved herself not only as a top sport horse, but also as a worthy representative of this exceptional breeding family.

Further down the pedigree we also find nothing but proven performance. Great-granddam Havanna van de Bisschop produced, alongside Nikka, multiple international top showjumpers, including the 1.60m Grand Prix horses Lennox van de Bisschop and Parfait van de Bisschop. Behind her stands Estina, herself successful at 1.60m level and foundational dam of various international sport horses and approved stallions. This branch of the Van de Bisschop family is known worldwide for its ability to produce horses for the absolute top sport generation after generation.

As sire, El Barone 111 Z provides extra athleticism, elasticity, reflexes and a modern sport type. His offspring distinguish themselves by their technique, scope and attitude, and now enjoy an excellent reputation among both professional riders and breeders.

With this young mare we offer a unique combination of Olympic performance blood, an exceptionally proven damline and a dam who herself possessed all the qualities to reach top-level sport. Despite being the youngest participant in Foal Auction 111, she already radiates the scope, quality and athletic potential that have characterised this family for generations. A rare opportunity to invest in a filly with an exceptional genetic basis and a promising future.
