Lady Kiss Z is a daughter of well-known progenitor Le Tot de Semilly, a son of the legendary Grand Veneur. During the European Championship for Young Riders in 1984 the seven-year-old Le Tot de Semilly made part of the golden team and ranked individually fourth. It was the beginning of a marvellous international career. Le Tot de Semilly and his rider Eric Levallois caused a furore during international Grand Prix, Nations’ Cups and a World Cup class. In the most recent WBFSH ranking of the best suppliers of showjumpers worldwide, Le Tot de Semilly is ranked 40th, his son Diamant de Semilly fifth.

Via her dam line, Lady Kiss Z belongs to Holstein performance family 2472, for whom the standard bearer is Contender. This same line 2472 is also responsible for the international showjumpers Think Twice, Ulina and Fine Kiss. Partnered with Gilbert Böckmann, the Caletto I daughter Fine Kiss was an eye-catcher as youngster. Later, Austrian Tatiana Freytag von Loringhoven jumped with Fine Kiss at the highest level, including participations at European Championships in Gijon (2001) and Donaueschingen (2003) and the World Equestrian Games in Jerez de la Frontera (2002). We are delighted to announce that the outstanding Fine Kiss is the dam of Lady Kiss Z, being presented in this exclusive auction collection. Alongside her brilliant career, Fine Kiss has been used in breeding programs and produced several successful showjumpers such as Quatro (jumps from 1m45 to 1m50 level in four- and five-star tournaments under the saddle of Maikel van der Vleuten), Alexia Z (ridden by Leopold van Asten, Alexia Z performs at 1m40 level during international two- and three-star tournaments), Quidam’s Kiss (partnered with Nick Vrins) and Taletto (partnered with Federica Leone).
