This colt is a top jumper prospect! Even at a few hours old there was no doubt this colt was born to jump - every step he takes is spring-loaded. His favourite gait is bounce! The natural ability he has to work over his back is very impressive, and so too is his suppleness at all gaits. On top of his stellar pedigree and his natural athleticism, he is also ridiculously good looking and sweet natured. With a super chill outlook on life, he approaches each new experience confidently and sensibly. He will be loads of fun for competitive amateurs and professional alike. We expect him to finish around 16.3hh.

Vihaan's sire, Viscerado, who made a name for himself in August 2019 by winning the preliminary qualifier for the Bundeschampionship for 4-year-old jumping horses. He was awarded with 8.8 because of a nearly perfect canter, excellent rideability, and a good sense of rhythm. At the finals, he had a nearly perfect round as well and a small time fault was all that stood between winning gold. Viscerado managed to be named Vice-Bundeschampion, a title well-deserved. Viscerado dominated his 50-day- test at Neustadt Dosse with a final score of 9.19 with emphasis on jumping. He received a 9.0 for his ground covering uphill canter and his excellent manner were accomplished by 9.5 for is work attitude and rideability. The judges scored the overall impression of Viscerado a perfect 10!
​
His talent is fueled by in the mare line. Viscerado's dam, St.Pr.St. Raphaels Girl, impressed at her own performance test because of her unlimited ability and perfect manner. The judges awarded her a 10 for her jumping ability. This incredible hereditary potential of the dam line combined with Viscount has produced this top stallion who holds the highest potential for breeding and sport.

Viscerado's sire, Viscount, finished the 2011 Hanoverian Stallion Licensing as the most expensive jumping stallion, and secured himself a stall at the Niedersächsischen Landegestüt Celle. In 2012, he completed his stallion performance test in Adelheidsdorf scoring perfect 10's for free-jumping and cross country and 9.5's for temperament, performance readiness, and rideability. He also received 9.0's for his character and canter. In his SPT, his jumping Index was 138, Dressage index 126. Total score was an impressive 8.73. In 2013, he developed into a serial winner in classes for young jumping horses. His unbelievable rideability and motivation brought him dream scores and many first place ribbons. Viscount competed to S level show jumping in Germany. Viscount has sired 5 approved sons, 3 in the Hanoverian stud book, 31 state premium mares/candidates, as well as a large number of auction horses and foals. He has 246 registered Hanoverian offspring out in sport and has sired S level horses in both Jumping and Dressage, as well as multiple successful event horses.

Vihaan's dam, Belle de Jour, is a sensitive but sensible mare, with a very willing nature and more playfulness than one would usually expect from a mare. She is a alpha mare with a lot of presence and beauty, is modern in type, and has three quality elastic gaits and correct conformation. She is a product of the well respected Marefield Meadows breeding program. After four stellar foals it has become apparent to us that this mare is a gem. Her 2020 colt by Glorioso Noir, 2021 filly by Coumario, and 2022 filly by Lissaro van de Helle, and now this colt by Viscerado are all top shelf youngsters: all showing the versatility in potential that we hoped this mare would produce with the added bonus of amazing characters and beauty. Both her 2021 filly, Cordelia, and 2022 filly, Leilani, were awarded the Gold Medal Jumper Foal distinction at their inspections, with all the judges commenting on their exceptional gaits.

Belle's sire, Balou Du Rouet is a favorite at all his appearances. His gaits are equipped with maximum elasticity and completing an excellent Stallion Performance Test, he was awarded top marks for jumping, 9.5 and 10.0 by the ‘foreign judges’. Balou du Rouet is not only by far the most successful son of his famous sire, the Olympic champion and three-time World Cup winner Baloubet du Rouet, but also an legendary sire in his own right. His offspring are amongst the most successful in show jumping as well as in eventing. This earned Balou du Rouet a place in the WBHSF rankings of the world's best show jumping sires and the world's best eventing sires for the sixth time in a row - and in the top 20 for both disciplines. He has sired over 85 of his offspring are successful in 1.60m show jumping competitions!
