About Eldorado van de Zeshoek TN

Eldorado van de Zeshoek TN is a brown BWP / NRPS showjumping stallion foaled in 2004, by Clinton out of a Toulon dam.

"Eldorado van de Zeshoek TN is a Belgian Warmblood stallion born on 22nd June 2004, bred by P. Merckx." Standing 1.76 metres tall and exhibiting a bay coat, he is registered with the Belgian Warmblood (BWP) and Nederlands Rijpaarden- en Ponystamboek (NRPS) studbooks. His sire, Clinton, is a celebrated Grand Prix showjumper with many international accolades, ranking prominently on the WBFSH's list of top CSI winning sires—adding to Eldorado's distinguished lineage. Eldorado van de Zeshoek has a notable competition record. With rider Willem Greve, he triumphed in the Grand Prix of Roosendaal and Arnhem, took second place in the 1.50m class at St. Lô, and placed sixth in both the Hickstead Bunn Leisure Trophy and the Pezinok World Cup qualifier. Frequently selected for the Dutch Nations Cup team, he consistently demonstrated his high calibre and dependability in top-tier events. In 2009, NRPS granted his studbook approval, and he later earned preferent status. Eldorado's progeny have excelled in show jumping, with a stud fee of €2,500, highlighting his continued demand and success in both competitive and breeding arenas."

One of his most distinguished progeny is Killer Queen VDM, which competed under D. Deusser and achieved victories at prominent events such as the CSIO5* of Calgary and Aix-La-Chapelle, and participated in the Tokyo 2021 Olympics.
