Bred by Laura Tinto, Imperial HBF descends from Carina VDL, a mare Laura purchased from us as a young horse. Carina VDL has already produced three international showjumpers:

• G-Carla HBF: competing at the 1.50m level
• HBF-Delta: competing at the 1.45m level
• Imperial HBF: excelling at the highest level in showjumping

Congratulations to Laura Tinto on these outstanding achievements!

There was also success for offspring of Carrera VDL in Stuttgart.
Jup (Carrera x Silverstone, breeder G.L. Dirksen-Hoksbergen) and Mariano Martinez Bastida claimed 2nd place in a 1.45m class. Another 2nd place went to the Carrera son Captain Morgan Weering Z (breeder R. Lanting from Roderwolde) in a different 1.45m class with his rider Giulia Martinengo Marquet.

Catch Me Not S (Cardento x Ramiro's Son, breeder Krister Svedberg) finished 3rd twice in Stuttgart. It’s fantastic to see this 18-year-old Cardento son still performing so strongly at a high level under Peder Fredricson.
