Chinook

The imposing black stallion Chinook has firmly made his name, both in sport and in breeding. He showed exceptional talent early on: winner of the VWF Dressage as a three-year-old and reserve champion of the Pavo Cup for four-year-olds.

Under several riders, Chinook proved his versatility and willingness to work. Highlights followed quickly: in 2017 Chinook won the Intermédiaire I and the Freestyle to Music at CDI3* Nieuw & St. Joosland. A year later Chinook stepped up to Grand Prix, where he competed successfully at international level for years.

But Chinook does not only shine in the ring – he leaves his mark in breeding too. His offspring combine presence with talent for advanced dressage. Examples include Heurt (dam by Rhodium), Hastrada K (dam by Rousseau), Cataleya (dam by Riccione), Halanta II (dam by Farrington), Harlekin (dam by Don Gregory) and Highlight (dam by Gribaldi), both active at international junior level, and Chikoto (dam by Likoto xx), who is proving his talent with the young riders. His son Corleone (dam by Wynton) is successful at PSG level, approved by the NRPS and following in his father’s footsteps.

His value as a damsire is starting to be noticed as well. His daughter Happy Time (Chinook x Flemmingh) produced Nitron San, successful at Z2 level, and his daughter Hommage Sollenburg (Chinook x Ferro) is the dam of Lucky Man Sollenburg, successful at PSG level.

Chinook is known for:
✔ A strong foundation and a striking appearance
✔ Expressive movement and the ability to shift gears
✔ A reliable and willing character
✔ Proven talent for the highest level of dressage

With his exceptional pedigree, sporting career and promising offspring, Chinook is the stallion who brings quality, performance and heritability together.
