Tolkien

Tolkien (Nixon van ’t Meulenhof x Elvis ter Putte)

Tolkien is bred out of the fantastic Querly Chin damline, combined with the talented Nixon van ’t Meulenhof. His sportive exterior, fantastic canter and ditto jumping qualities makes him very interesting as a showjumper and as a breeding stallion. Besides that Tolkien is very intelligent and super nice to work with. That makes him a potential partner for almost every mare!

The lineage of Tolkien is very special. When you look at the sires we see stallions Nixon van ’t Meulenhof, Elvis ter Putte, Bamako de Muze, Kashmir van ’t Schuttershof, Darco and Chin Chin in a row. Piece by piece stallions who earned their spurs, both in breeding and sports. Nixon van ’t Meulenhof is bred out of one of the best damlines in the world. He conquered the hearts of showjumping lovers as a young horse. With his great canter, overview and extreme good technique he was an eyecatcher during the stallion competition and won the BWP Young Stallion Award deservedly. As a son of Denzel van ’t Meulenhof and topmare Carthina Z his talent is no surprise. Carthina Z is also the mother of Emerald van ’t Ruytershof, Ilusionata van ’t Meulenhof and Diamanthina van ’t Ruytershof. In the meantime the 9 years old Nixon van ’t Meulenhof is very successful with Jos Verlooy at 1.55 level.

As if this wasn’t special enough, Tolkien’s damline makes the pedigree even more extraordinary. Seven mothers in a row jumped 1.40 or even higher! His mother Libelle de Muze won recently a class with Aiko Paridaen in Vejer de la Frontera. Grandmother Loro Piana Boyante de Muze jumped 1.60 and is the mother of the 1.60 horse Estoy Aqui de Muze. Her mother is Narcotique de Muze II who jumped 1.60 with Eric Lamaze. Narcotique is also the mother of horses like Sea Cost Ferly, Querlybet Hero and Farfelu de la Pomme. The mother of Narcotique is Querly Chin (also successful at 1.60 level) who is at the foundation of this amazing lineage, which includes horses like Exquis Walnut de Muze, Vagabond de la Pomme, Jenson van ‘t Meulenhof, Toupie de la Roque, and Ducati van ‘t Schuttershof. It’s noteworthy that the sire of Nixon van ‘t Meulenhof, Denzel van ‘t Meulenhof, also comes from this lineage, and thus the valuable blood of Querly Chin and her family is doubly secured in Tolkien.

Tolkien doesn’t just need it from his excellent family. He himself has a modern show jumping horse model, a light-footed large canter, and jumps with a lot of technique and commitment. Additionally, this unique appearance possesses a willing and honest character. He is currently competing at the 1.10 level with Marco Sas.
