It was previously announced that Tobago Z will henceforth be available for breeding through the Zangersheide studbook. Following this, the Belgian studbook has announced that Balou du Reventon (Cornet Obolensky x Continue) will now also be made available via Zangersheide. "It seemed impossible for years, but we have succeeded," Zangersheide stated in a press release.
Balou du Reventon made his debut in 2014 with Liubov Kochetova. The highlight of this partnership was the victory in the CSI4* 1.60m Grand Prix in 2016. Subsequently, Irish showjumper Darragh Kenny took over the reins, leading to a significant expansion of the stallion's track record.
Together with Kenny, the stallion jumped to Grand Prix victory during the CSI5* in Knokke in 2019. Prior to that, the duo placed second in the CSI5* Longines Global Champions Tour Grand Prix of Chantilly, and the pair was part of the FEI Nations Cup team during the final in Barcelona. After a period with Darragh Kenny, Brian Moggre took over the reins, achieving a CSI5* Grand Prix victory in Sopot and a Nations Cup win in Aachen.
Meanwhile, the stallion can already count on impressive results from several of his offspring.
