About Harley Optimus Z
Ridden by both Nicola Philippaerts and Bertram Allen, the impressive Harley van de Bisschop is one of world’s best showjumpers. With Philippaerts, the Dulf van de Bisschop son won the Global Champions Tour of Estoril, the CSI5* Grand Prix of Tryon and Omaha and the FEI Nations Cup Final in Barcelona. Nowadays, Harley van de Bisschop is equally successful with Bertram Allen, winning the Global Champions League Play Offs in Prague. Harley Optimus Z is a son of former world number one Halifax van het Kluizebos – just like Dulf van de Bisschop a son of Heartbreaker – out of the mare Charisma. This makes Harley Optimus Z a 3/4 brother of the jumping phenomenon Harley van de Bisschop. The success of this damline is certainly not a coincidence; Harley Optimus Z is also closely related to 1.60m showjumpers such as Winn Winn and Energy Al Baryia.
