At the KWPN Stallion Inspection in ‘s-Hertogenbosch, Levi demonstrated his quality by earning his ticket for the champions ring and the performance test. He once again stood out at the test in Ermelo where Levi was entered in the studbook with 79 points. This achievement makes Levi the sixth KWPN-approved son the stallion Arezzo VDL, who unites the genes of the greats Chin Chin and Heartbreaker. Additionally, Arezzo VDL is known as the sire of many international success horses, such as VDL Edgar M (Marlon Zanotelli), Electra B (Richard Howley), Farezzo (Edwin Smits) and many others. Next, Levi carries the genes of the world-famous Diamant de Semilly, who in 2002 became world champion under Eric Levallois with the French team in Jerez and later became one of the best sires of his generation with descendants such as Don VHP Z (Harrie Smolders), Utamaro d'Ecaussines (Niels Bruynseels), Emerald (Harrie Smolders) and Inca Boy van 't Vianahof (Edwina Tops-Alexander). Great-grandfather Padinus is a much-appreciated son of the legendary Heartbreaker. Unfortunately, he died too young and yet Padinus is still regularly found as the father or mother's father of many international Grand Prix show jumpers.

Dam Erusa carries the predicates “ster” and “EPTM (spr)” and goes back to the well-known Le Mexico daughter Brigitte. This mare is the foundation of the popular breeding stallion Etoulon VDL (Jur Vrieling), Broken Heart (Jeffrey Welles), Corleone (Catherine Tyree), the Zangersheide-approved Kazan, Edoctro (Francesco Franzoni), Tereusa (Joris Aegten), Dereusa S (Femke Courchaine). Also coming from this prolific dam line are Grand Prix jumpers such as Houston (Laura Chapot), Sly (Jonathon Millar), Illusion (Tani Zeidler), Pitareusa (Yann Candele) and Oteusi (Lotte Berghauser-Pont).
