REMINGTON VF

ABOUT

Remington VF is a capacious and well developed son of international jumping sensation Emerald Van’t Ruytershof. The characteristics of Emerald are replicated in Remington VF not only in terms of his aesthetic markings, but also his strong coupled topline, his demonstrated scope, and his quick reflexes through the chute.

The exact Emerald x Thunder Van De Zuuthoeve cross is proven in Europe with several young horses already jumping at the highest levels and demonstrating aptitude for sport in the young horse classes; ELY DES ROSIERS Z (1.50m Jump. Nathan BUDD (BEL)); EMORY VAN DE MOLEN Z (5yr final, Gesves BEL); MERCEDESSE FFH; SEMERALD VAN 'T ZONNEVELD; and TUUT TUUT VD KNUFFEL.
