Dam: Martinais (Guidam x Dammen), 15.3 h Sport Predicate Awarded KWPN Mare
Martinais is a stunning, imported KWPN mare that was shown through Grand Prix level jumping before an injury sidelined her career. As a result of her exemplary performance record she has been awarded the KWPN Sport Predicate. Perfectly proportioned with ideal conformation, she has a huge stride and was a powerhouse, fearless jumper. Guidam, her sire has been ranked as #1 in the KWPN breeding index, #1 in USEF Jumper Sires Rankings and as one of the Top Ten Stallions in the world before his untimely death. He is sire to "Authentic" 2004 USA Horse of the Year and 2004 Olympic Gold Medalist, "Luidam" 2004 Nations Cup winner, and over 35 Grand Prix and International Showjumpers. His sire, Quidam de Revel won Team Bronze and individual Fourth Place at the Barcelona Olympics with Herve Godignon (who now competes with Guidam’s daughter Liona). Martinais' dam was a Star KWPN mare decending from the sire Dammen (Alme x Twiggy). Alme influenced showjumping bloodlines all over the world and Twiggy was an anchor in very many good jumping horses and is a legend in breeding.
