Cavalier Russe Z is a phenomenon in the making. This 5-year-old chestnut stallion is a son of living legend Casall. During his career Casall won no less than 14 GPs and World Cup classes at five-star level, equaling a total of more than 2.5 million euros in prize money. His offspring is also doing very well. The name of Cavalier Russes mother, Valentina van 't Heike (s. Nabab de Rêve), also rings a bell. With Jos Lansink, Valentina jumped at the highest level for years and in breeding she already gave birth to the 1.60m-horses Epleaser van 't Heike and Boomer van 't Heike.
In early 2021 Cavalier Russe passed the third phase of the BWP stallion selection with flying colours and obtained his breeding licence. He seems to be on the eve of a great career in sport and breeding. He already covered a lot of mares and his first offspring was born last year. Breeders' faith in this young stallion earned Cavalier the BWP Young Stallion Award in early 2023. Needless to say, expectations around Cavalier Russe are high.
