Ilena de Mariposa was sold to HDC by Belgium's show jumper, Jérome Guery. The rider works closely with Flora's breeder, Koen de Brabander and still has a son out of Flora de Mariposa by Nabab de Rêve.
Ilena de Mariposa is now to join her successful mother in France. Together with Pénélope the mare will develop towards the top of the sport.
