This Qiqi carries Olympic bloodlines in her veins, and it’s no surprise considering the exceptional breeding behind her. First and foremost, her jumping performance can easily be described as a combination of class and consistency. Time and again, this mare clears obstacles with ease, displaying a sharpness and speed in her finish. With her excellent use of the back and a smooth, powerful canter, Qiqi will undoubtedly be a pleasure to ride.
When we study her Hippomundo pedigree in detail, it’s immediately clear that she is related to the Olympic horse First Devision. This Andiamo son consistently demonstrated his class at the highest level, often taking the top spot on the podium! Looking closer at her maternal line, we find that her grandmother, Imaya vd Dorperheide, is a full sister to the 160-level jumper Fidele. This Winningmood stallion jumped under the saddle of Olivier Philippaerts and is also a half-brother to the Nonstop stallion Ulysse, who made a name for himself with Swiss rider Pius Schwizer. Further down the line, we also find the 160-level jumpers Fiston and La Belle van Dorperheide.
