From the damline of Leon Thijssen’s For President


The talented Ruby-Lène Z comes from the first crop of the Zangersheide-approved stallion Rising Star, who is now competing internationally at 1.35m level in Turkey at the age of eight. Her dam Nova-Léne is by the well-producing Grand Prix stallion Emir R, who had a successful international career under Rolf-Göran Bengtsson, and is a half-sister to the international 1.35/1.40m-level performer Helrike (s.Harley VDL). Granddam Charlene is herself a half-sister to the 1.40m-level competing mare Gallicia (s.Baltic VDL). At the highest level, this Dutch branch of the Holsteiner damline 2666 was represented in sport by For President (s.Numero Uno), the successful horse of Leon Thijssen
