Volle zus van Cadence Van ’t Gelutt
Partnered with Otto Becker, Centa van ’t Gelutt Z’s sire, Cento, performed over a number of years at the highest level. Some of their highlights: golden team medal during the Sydney 2000 Olympic Games, bronze team medal during the Athens 2004 Olympic Games, winner of the World Cup final in Leipzig (2002), seventh place during the 2002 WEG in Jerez de la Frontera, winner of a World Cup class in ‘s- Hertogenbosch and winner of the prestigious Grand Prix in Aachen (2000), Calgary (2003) and San Patrignano (2005). Several descendants of Cento are following in the hoofprints of their illustrious sire, such as Centoia van ’t Roosakker (sporting name: Cella, Ben Mahler), Daytona de Muze (Jody Bosteels), Carmel Z (sporting name: Coral Reef Carmel Z, Ann Knight Karrasch) and Norton d’Eole (Eric Dewulf).We also meet performance blood in the dam line of Centa van ’t Gelutt Z. Her full brother, Cadence van ’t Gelutt Z, was an approved stallion with AES. In 2006, Cadence was ex-aequo winner of the Belgian championship for four-year-old showjumping horses in Gesves. Luxtria van ’t Gelutt Z (by Lux Z), a half-sister to Centa van ’t Gelutt Z, made a career in the international showjumping world, in partnership with several riders, such as Otto Becker, Jérôme Guery and Franz-Josef Dahlmann. At the age of 10, Luxtria was sold to the United States where Chloe Field wrote the sequel to Luxtria’s international success story. In the breeding world Luxtria produced for instance the BWP approved stallion Okidoki van ’t Gelutt Z. Partnered with Harrie Smolders, Okidoki performed in international 1m35 to 1m40 showjumping classes (two- and three-star) in 2013 and 2014. In February 2015 Sam Polleunis started to compete with the nine-year-old Okidoki. La Pomme v’t Gelutt Z, another half-sister to Centa, jumps in Italy at 1m40 level under the saddle of Beatrice Calvi.
Palmares
Geert Somers: “We hesitated for a while when Sven Bols asked us to bring Centa in the auction. We agreed because we still have a bunch young fillies out of this damline that brought us the stallions Cadence and Okidoki Van ’t Gelutt. With Centa, FMA gives young breeders a huge chance to acquire a sport proven damline.
