Pedigree information
With hallmark stallions such as Nimmerdor, Notaris and Voltaire in the background, we can safely say that Kenwood has a very reputable pedigree. Kenwood jumped at 1.40 m level with Jos Lansink. The performance sires Voltaire and Purioso really don"t need an introduction. In this case there we also have a mare line that is rich in predicates and in which keuring- and sport results go hand in hand, all the way back to the Lucky Boy xx daughter Oludine. Riverman has quality in his basic gaits and he works well in them. Besides that the stallion jumps carefully with the necessary scope.
Dam Jaludine produced 5 foals (3 colts and 2 fillies of which 1 is keur and 1 is ster).
dd Frouwdine: Z1-dressage; produced several Z-level dressage horses.
ddd Oludine: Zoost (s Joost) Z-jumper; dd of Knud (s Voltaire) Z1-dressage; ddd of Liberia (s Damiro) Z1-dressage, Mozart (s Zeoliet) Z1-dressage.
