Orlando’s sire, Heartbreaker, is one of the best sport horse producers in Europe. Heartbreaker was show at the Grand Prix level very successfully with Peter Geerink.

Among his long list of results is a win in the World Cup Qualifying Grand Prix in Olympia and s’Hertogenbosch, a 6th in the World Equestrian Games and a 7th place finish at the Barcelona Olympics. Darco has also produced some outstanding show jumpers with intelligence and power like Parco, Sapphire and King Darco. Nefista van de Ruitershoeve was a breeding mare, but also participated successfually at the Belgian Cycle for 5 and 6-year-olds, and won many regional classes.
ACHIEVEMENTS;
At the test in Oud Heverlee, Orlando gave a remarkable performance. There the judges described him as an excellent jumper with a superb technique and a great deal of scope. Orlando is simple to ride. He has a clever mind and is brave, but still maintains a very mannerly and gentle temperament. In the show ring, Orlando has done very well with Dirk Demeersman and Darragh Kerins.
PROGENY:
Orlando is producing first-rate and competitive offspring. Several of his offspring have won foal championships and have brought record auction prices.
