Several stallions have been announced among the individual Olympic qualifiers for Rio 2016. In Group F, representing Maroc, the brilliant Selle Français Quickly de Kreisker (2004: Diamant de Semilly - Briseis d’Helby x Laudanum xx) with Abdelkebir Ouaddar. Likewise, Belgium is assured of two places with Holsteiner Conrad de Hus (2005: Con Air - Minne I x Locato) ridden by Gregory Wathelet, and Papillon Z (2002: Perhaps vh Molenvoldel - Cleopatra van Spalbeek x Cassini I) with Jerome Guery (see photo). The latter already has a blue-blooded pedigree as a paternal grandson of the Atlanta 2006 Olympic individual showjumping gold medallist Jus de Pomme (Primo des Bruyeres - Opaline des Pins x Garitchou AA). Two mares, Molly Malone V (2004: Kannan - Janini x Cavalier [ex San Patrignano Mister]) and Fit For Fun (2004: For Pleasure - Fetzi x Fabriano) will, respectively, represent Ireland and Portugal in the hands of Bertram Allen and Luciana Diniz.
