Basil van ‘t Volpenhof

This horse will turn two years old in 2026 and already presents himself as a very promising young showjumping prospect. He jumps with scope, good technique and shows balance and overview. His way of moving is easy and light, which makes him not only an interesting jumping prospect but also a possible hunter candidate. He pushes well off the ground, uses his body correctly and clearly shows quality and talent for the future.

Sire Verdi TN competed at the very highest level and was successful for many years at 1.70m Grand Prix level under Maikel van der Vleuten, with podium finishes at Aachen and Spruce Meadows. As a sire, he belongs to the absolute top and has produced numerous international showjumpers competing at 1.60m level and higher, including Cuidam, I Belle Ask and Comic.

The damline is well proven. Dam Bieke du A.B.N.T. Z is by Bamako de Muze, who himself competed successfully at 1.60m level. Granddam Georgette van het Harteveld competed at 1.40m level and produced several sport horses, including Fiona Harteveld at 1.40m and Kashimir competing at 1.50m level. Further down the line, multiple horses reached 1.40m and 1.50m level, such as Djembé van het Schaarbroek and Storm, confirming the reliability of this performance family.

A young horse with scope, good technique and an easy way of moving, offering strong potential for further development into a competitive sport horse.
