In 2005 he came up for auction at Foal Auction Prinsjesdag and in 2016 he is on his way to the absolute world top in show jumping: the eleven-year-old stallion Alicante impressed on all fronts in the Longines Global Champions Tour of Miami Beach last weekend. Under the top Belgian rider Jérôme Guery, Alicante jumped in a fantastic way to seventh and eighth place in the richly decorated five-star 1.55m classes on Miami Beach.
Alicante was born in 2005 at Stoeterij 't Maalwater owned by Ron Nowee and is a son of the famous Casall out of the mare Texas M (Indoctro x Lagos). As a three-year-old Alicante earned his breeding license with the KWPN and was covered by the HBC Stable. After being expertly trained by Marc Houtzager and Julia Kayser, Alicante was sold to the Belgium-based Israeli horse dealer Tal Milstein. He had Alicante ridden by his stable rider Chloé Vranken and then placed him with the Belgian top rider Jérôme Guery. Since then, Alicante has only been going uphill and the fantastic performance at Miami Beach only confirms that. Again a confirmation of the motto of Foal Auction Prinsjesdag: The Power of Performance.
Meanwhile, in Villers, France, Vicomte Breteuil, another Prinsjesdag product showed itself. Nine-year-old Caesar (Lucky Boy x Corland) jumped under the Belgian Frederik Cattebeke to a fine sixth place in the CSI2* 1.45m Grand Prix. Again a promising horse who is at the beginning of his international Grand Prix career and of which we will be hearing a lot more!
