Descendant:
The number four of the championship selection, Kardinaal HX, was born out of the Grand Prix jumping mare Wimette, a star, sport (jumping) mare by Karandasj, who was internationally successful under Michel Hendrix. Wimette is from the well-known Balia line and her preferent performance dam Rimette (by Burggraaf) is the dam of the international 1.50m horse Zamette (by Emilion) and the granddam of the KWPN stallion Fandango HX (by Vittorio). Rimette is a half-sister of the successful Grand Prix horses Nirmette (by G. Ramiro Z) of Markus Fuchs and Sjarmette (by Burggraaf) of Tim Gredley. Their mother Irmette (by Nimmerdor), who carries the predicates Keur, preferent, performance and sport (jumping), also produced an international 1.35m horse by Diamant de Semilly, and by Sam R a 1.30m horse. She is the grandmother of the Grand Prix horse U2 (by Calvados), also performed under Michel Hendrix. Just like his mother, the father of Kardinaal HX, Don Diablo HX (by Vittorio), is also successful in international sport under Michel Hendrix, the duo won the 1.50m Grand Prix in 2018 at the KWPN Stallion Show.
