Sire: Kannan was internationally successful with Francois Mathy Jr. and Michel Hécard. He has produced over 200 international show jumping horses, including the Olympic Champion Nino des Buissonets and Hickstead Derby winner Adventure de Kannan, and has been placed in the top group of the world WBFSH ranking for years; in 2016, he lies in fifth for jumping and tenth for eventing; an exceptional feat as no other stallion appears in the rankings for more than one discipline. He is the sire of CCI4* event horses Billy Beware, who has won six international classes and finished sixth at Badminton 2014, his first CCI4*, and Ogustin du Terroir, who was second in the Vairano Nations Cup and fourth in the under-25 CCI3* at Bramham. He sired the winner of the 2016 Westphalian licensing, Karajan, who sold in the ensuing auction for over €600,000.

Damline: Successful dam line meets sire legend. The pedigree of this young stallion reads like a summit meeting of international show jumping greats. The dam Maraminka deserves special attention. Under the name Minka's Diamond she carried Emile Tacken to successes up to Nations Cups and produced three more offspring with international successes up to advanced level: Diamond of Minka, Enjoy Blue Diamond and Freiminka's Blue Diamond.
