CAPITAL’S JAURES DE HUS
Baloubet du Rouet x Wandor van Mispelaere x Cento | Grey Selle Français, 2019
A young stallion with a pedigree that reads like a roll of honour, Capital’s Jaures de Hus was purchased at the Flanders Foal Auction and brings a concentration of championship blood few stallions can match.
His sire, Baloubet du Rouet, is one of the most decorated showjumpers in history: individual Olympic gold medallist in Athens in 2004, three times winner of the World Cup Final, and ranked the number one sire in the world on the WBFSH list in both 2012 and 2013. As a sire, Baloubet transmits his hallmark explosive power, careful technique and blood, and he is the sire of the millionaire showjumper Balou du Rouet, himself now a leading breeding stallion.
The real depth, though, runs through the dam. Hera van ‘t Roosakker competed to 1.40m and is by Wandor van Mispelaere, a 1.50m stallion prized for exemplary technique and enormous scope. Hera is the daughter of Cella, the CSI5* 1.60m mare campaigned by Ben Maher, who is by Cento and out of the legendary Usha van ‘t Roosakker. Usha is one of the most influential broodmares in modern European breeding, a foundation mare of the van ‘t Roosakker dynasty that has produced international stallions and Grand Prix horses in generation after generation. To find her this close in a stallion’s pedigree is genuinely rare.
Jaures stamps his offspring with every bit of that genetic potential. He is a stallion bred, on both sides, to excel at the very top of the sport.
In a recent embryo sale, a full embryo to Capital’s Jaures was sold for 16 200 Euros.
