About Diego
As one of the last sons of the legendary Darco, Diego can be interesting for both sport and breeding. This 3-year-old stallion has got the right ingredients for a modern sporthorse; fantastic reflexes, high level of carefulness, athleticism and lots of power. Sire Darco needs no further explanation; this legend put the Belgian breeding of showjumpers on the map.
Diego’s dam Zandorette B Z competed herself at international level and combines top sires Zandor Z, Carthago, Ramiro and Almé. Great-granddam Etorette B is the dam of Grand Prix showjumpers Presto B and True Love B and the granddam to Michael Greeve’s successful Whitney BB.
