The Belgian stud farm van Paemel has announced the passing of the foundation stallion, Cicero Z van Paemel (Carthago x Randel Z). The stallion reached the age of 26. "We are heartbroken... Sunday, February 22, will forever remain in our memories as a black day."
During his sportive career, the grey stallion jumped at the highest level with Dirk Demeersman. Demeersman and the son of Carthago won the Grand Prix of Aalst as well as the Sires of the World in Mechelen and the Six Bars competition in Dublin.
Furthermore, impressive results during the Nations Cup of Rome, the World Cup of Mechelen, etc., shine on his record.
"We are eternally grateful to Dirk Demeersman for loving you as much as we did," says the team from Stoeterij van Paemel. "We are also grateful to the team at Zangersheide. They put you even more on the map as a breeding stallion after your sporting career."
The grey stallion leaves behind many approved sons as well as several top sport horses such as the 1.60m jumpers Cobalt vd Bisschop, Cuba Libre van Paemel, Catch-Me van Berkenbroeck, etc.
