About Bustique

Bustique is a brown KWPN showjumping stallion foaled in 2006, by Indoctro out of a Grannus dam.

Bustique is a prominent KWPN-registered showjumping stallion born in 2006 in the Netherlands, known for his substantial impact as a breeding sire. He was bred by Hans Schipper and Henk van de Wijngaart and is the progeny of the well-regarded sire Indoctro and dam Jutha, a mare with distinguished offspring in the equestrian world. Bustique made an impression when he was sold at the KWPN Stallion Sale, signifying his high value and potential as a breeding stallion. In the competitive arena, Bustique demonstrated his prowess by achieving significant results during his career. Notably, he was the vice-champion at the KWPN Stallion Selection and secured a second place in the 1.40m class of the VHO Trophy in 2014 with rider Michel Hendrix. Bustique's showing capability was further exhibited during the 2011-2012 Stallion Competition, where he consistently placed in the top five, highlighting his speed, carefulness, and scope. Bustique's influence extends beyond his own achievements, being recognised for siring numerous successful showjumping horses. He holds a high ranking in the WBFSH Sire Rankings, cementing his status as a valuable progenitor with offspring excelling at international competitions including Grand Prix events.

Bustique’s progeny have made impressive strides on the international showjumping stage. Among them, Beauville Z stands out with a series of achievements such as winning bronze at the Olympic Games and being named GCL Horse of the Year in Prague after an outstanding 2023 season. Beauville Z has competed successfully in events like the GCT Grand Prix of CSI5* Monte Carlo and the World Cup competition of CSI5*-W La Coruna. Other noted offspring include Bonita van het Keizershof Z, who claimed a $40,000 Grand Prix win at the Desert Circuit in Thermal, California, and Berdien Z, who won a $25,000 national Grand Prix in Wellington. These accomplishments underscore Bustique's continuing influence through his successful progeny.
