24. DIEGO VAN DE ZESHOEK Z

ABOUT THE TALENT

Diego van de Zeshoek combines an imposing frame with the lightness and reflexes of a modern athlete. Tall, long-legged and elegant, this six-year-old gelding displays enormous scope, lightning-fast reactions and exceptional front-end technique, all while remaining remarkably light in his way of jumping. Sired by Christian Ahlmann’s multiple five-star Grand Prix winner Dominator 2000 Z, Diego is backed by an equally formidable performance family. He is a sibling to 1.45m Quibelle van de Zeshoek and 1.50m Philou MXL, while the damline has also produced Olympic performer GL Events Dorai d’Aiguilly and Willem Greve’s Grand Prix stallion and influential sire Eldorado van de Zeshoek. Diego is still at the beginning of his story, but everything he shows suggests he is a name worth remembering.
