Kannan power and Chou Blue class – a filly built for greatness!

The dam Giovanna de Paume was the most expensive jumping foal sold at SWB's Elite Foal Auction 2016. She was a finalist both as a 4-year-old in Falsterbo and as a 5-year-old at Champion of the Youngsters, later achieving merits up to 135 jumping. Giovanna de Paume has a breeding index for jumping of 136. 

The grand-dam, Miss Moneypenny L, produced Hashtag de Paume (by Kannan GFE) in 140 jumping. 

The great-granddam, Miss Glockner, has merits in 145 jumping and has produced the Oldenburg-approved Can Do L (by Cornet Obolensky), who competed up to 145 jumping.

Chou Blue carries the sought-after Chacco-Blue blood through his sire Chacoon Blue, the second highest-ranked sire in the world, and the highly successful Balou du Rouet on the dam side – a pedigree that clearly breathes world-class show jumping. His full brother Carnegie is approved in Hanover and was named premium stallion. Chou Blue’s granddam and great-granddam have produced numerous successful sport horses, including La Melonga (1.60m). Chou Blue himself completed the SWB Stallion Test with very high marks from both judges and test riders, showing great jumping ability, reaction, and elasticity – test rider Dave Maarse exclaimed, “Amazing horse”! Together with Thomas Ryan, he has already launched a promising sport career with strong results at young horse competitions.
