Description

Zoolander
We are delighted to welcome to this auction this big moving colt by Viva Gold, bred by Sarah
Davies. We invited all UK based studbooks to send us their stand out foals and young horses
from this year’s studbook inspection for a very limited number of “invitation only” slots, and
Zoolander scored a convincing 3*** top grade score with the AES this summer, with a dream
mark of 9 for his trot, making him a very worthy candidate.
Viva Gold is another son of the legendary Vivaldi whose great influence we have already seen
well represented in this auction. What makes him particularly interesting is the fact the his
grandmother is none other than Isabel Werth’s wonderful Olympic mare Weihegold,
Mother Zelma brings the important blood of the all-time great Gribaldi, sire of Totilas,of course,
and behind that we have the dual purpose stallion Samber who brings a good dose of
thoroughbred, and then the famous Cocktail. She has consistently produced offspring of
exceptional quality, including the Beaulissimo son Riccardo who was selected for the AES Elite
Dressage Foal Auction at the BD Nationals in 2018 and who was sold to one of Britain’s most
highly regarded dressage studs.
