With the consecutive Olympic stallions Emerald van ’t Ruytershof, Cornet Obolensky, and Zirocco Blue VDL -all of whom have established themselves as highly successful producers of Grand Prix horses- Skua boasts a first-class pedigree. In addition, he originates from a proven damline, highlighted by multiple Grand Prix winner Gancia de Muze, the celebrated horse of Niels Bruynseels. Dam Nena earned the ster predicate with an impressive score of 85 points for technique, while granddam Helena is a half-sister to several international showjumpers, including the 1.50m-horse Vancouver (s.Calvados), ridden by Derin Demirsoy, and the 1.40m-level competing Zoeara (s.Hold Up Premier). This direct line has also produced international 1.50/1.60m-level horses such as Diarindo Z (s.Diarado), Freya (s.Emilion), Gemini (s.Indoctro), Homer de Muze (s.Nabab de Rêve), Rochester (s.Calvin Z), and Zinesse (s.Guidam).
