VDL Groep Gloria

VDL Groep Gloria (s. Nabab de Reve) is a tall grey mare, bred by Stoeterij Duyselshof.
Gloria has been showed up to 1m30 level.
Before her sports career Gloria was in our breeding stables through E.T. Since 2018 her career is in breeding.

VDL Groep Kimbel
VDL Groep Carolein Z
VDL Groep Pieter
VDL Groep Ranomi
VDL Groep Tajfun
VDL Groep Utopia

Gloria’s sire is the stallion Nabab de Reve. This stallion has performed successfully on 1m60 level. He also has many offspring in international show jumping up to the highest level, between these also approved sons. Examples are Kashmir v/h Schuttershof, Walnut de Muze, Glock’s London, Valentina van ‘t Heike en Vigo d’Arsouilles.

Gloria’s dam is the famous Grand Prix mare VDL Groep Think Twice, a daughter of Corrado I x Fier de Lui x Chicago. That makes the damline very valuable. With Leopold van Asten Think Twice II became Dutch Champion in 2003 and participated successfully in several Nations Cup-competitions and World Cup-finals. On top of this she won the Grand Prix of The Hague and Donaueschingen. Also in breeding Think Twice II proved her value, she already produced the international showjumper Loreen (s.Ramiro Z) and the approved stallion VDL Groep Spiritivo (s. Indoctro). Nessaya, a full sister of Think Twice, is mother of the Holstein approved stallion Quirado (s.Quidam de Revel). Their granddam Ulina was jumping on international level and became German Champion with Susanne Behring in 1994. Via Fier de Lui and Chicago this damline traces back on the famous mare Gofine, dam of the excellent breedingstallion Contender. 

VDL Groep Gloria is sold in 2024, together with her foal VDL Groep Utopia (s. El Salvador).
