Chin.
Together
with its owner and rider Jaime Azcarraga from Mexico,
Chin Chin has been participating for more than 5 years
at international top level. In 1988 Jaime Azcarraga
won 5 consecutive times in the North American league
in the world cup circuit and in Seoul during the
Olympic Games together they reached individually the
6th place. Four years later again they were competing
at the Olympics at Barcelona. In 1990 Chin Chin and
Jaime Azcarraga started the first edition of the World
Equestrian Games in Stockholm. In 1989 and 1990 they
placed for the final for the World Cup final in
Dortmund and Tampa. The offspring
of Chin Chin really make their pedigree come true.

Echo's mother Wika is performing at national level
with Gilles Dunon. Just as the international
performing Waleska (rider: Davide Kainnich), Wika is
bred by Kashmir and Heartbreaker out of the same
grandmother Vika. Vika's full brother Uraan (Peter
Postelmans) and Tom both had careers on international
level.
Other famous descendants of this bloodline are the
approved
stallion Cluysenaer vd Heffinck (by Calido) and Dior
vd Heffinck (by Clinton). Dior had been sold at the
auction in Mechelen at the price of €42.000. |
