About Uricas vd Kattevennen

Sire: Father Uriko is the descendant of Untouchable from a mother of Lavito. Uriko is active in international show jumping. Several of Uriko's offspring have already been approved by the Holsteiner association in Germany. Uriko’s bloodline is highly interesting as he carries a unique combination of international top jumping sires. Uriko boasts an impressive track record under Maximilian Gräfe as he won six jumping classes at S* level and was highly placed in jumping classes to S** level.

Damline: Dam T Cassina is a Holstein mare by Casini I x Carentino. She has already produced several international horses. The dam of T. Cassina, Chika's Way, was herself very successful at the highest international level. The grandmother is the well-known Vodka II. Several horses have emerged from this mare that have been active at the highest level.

Performance record

This very talented young stallion is trained Alexander Housen. One of their highlights was in 2019, when the duo qualified for the World Championships for Young Horses in Lanaken by jumping clear every day. In the final they achieved a very creditable 5th place.
In 2021 Harrie Smolders took over the reins to take the next step in his career together with Uricas. This talented stallion was able to show beautiful clear rounds during the final 5* Global Champions Tour competition in Prague and CSI 5* Geneva.

Notable progeny

While still a young horse himself, Uricas has already started to produce some impressive offspring who are starting to make their debuts around the world – with many carrying through his scope and bravery at the fence as well as a trainable nature. Many have been successful already in the Young Horse and Belgian Championships, with exciting new foals coming through each year. His first sons Ucarias HH Z and Think Twice vd Zwartbleshoeve are approved. In 2024, Uricas produced the reserve champion at the Holstein and Oldenburger stallion approval.
