Melissa-L

Melissa-L - Information & Pedigree

This modern, athletic Melissa-L stands out with her light-footedness and good jumping technique. We foresee a great future as a showjumper awaits her, originating from a successful damline from which various top talents have already been sold in the Dutch Sport Horse Sales. Her dam Gracia-L is a full sister of Kodaline, who has performed at international 1.45m level with Beth Underhill and was sold in this auction as a youngster. In addition, granddam Lapita foaled the international 1.50m level showjumpers Izabella L (s.Entertainer) ridden by Gaj Riossa and Valentino (s.Pierrot) ridden by Armin Schafer. Lapita is also listed as the granddam of Pieter Keunen’s national 1.50m jumping horse Juke Box (s.Entertainer). Other successful 1.50/1.55m level horses which originate from this direct damline are Courville L (s.Vittorio), Lord Bi (s.Baloubet du Rouet) and Alida Nike (s.Ustinov). This refined mare is sired by Kashmir van Schuttershof son Fly, who was successful in the young horse classes in the Netherlands and now performs at international 1.40m level with Marie Demonte. His oldest offspring are at the beginning of international careers.
