60 times winner of 1.50 m classes, Hamburg Derby winner and top jumping sire

Champion du Lys is a grey performance stallion with charismatic presence. He has impressively demonstrated his abilities as an international show jumper with rider Ludger Beerbaum by winning 60 1.50 m classes, including the 2003 Hamburg Derby, plus competing in numerous Grand Prix and Nations Cups. Nevertheless, a successful stallion isn’t judged on its competition record alone, but also on the performance of its progeny, and Champion du Lys’ offspring are some of the very best. Despite only having been used sparingly for breeding purposes, Champion du Lys has produced top horses such as the approved stallion Caballero. He was the most expensive horse at the PSI Auction in 2006, won the World Championship for Show Jumping Horses in Lanaken and is already winning at 1.50 m level. There are now 19 Champion du Lys offspring competing successfully at 1.50 m level. They include Chablis du Lys/Markus Merschformann, Cockney/Philipp Weishaupt and Ludger Beerbaum, Crossing Jordan/Alois Pollmann-Schweckhorst and the approved stallion Champion F.P. Champion du Lys’ progeny have collectively won over EUR 133,000 on the show jumping circuit. Champion du Lys has inherited excellent French sport genes from his grandsire Mexico (full brother to the famous stallion Furioso II) who has produced innumerable top class sports horses and flourishing stallion lines.
