Newton Zion (Squid) – Well-Bred Young Prospect with Elite Dressage Bloodlines
Zion, known as Squid at home, is a well-built rising 3-year-old gelding with a kind temperament and an easy outlook. Currently unbacked, he is a correct and attractive young horse with all the ingredients to develop into a quality dressage prospect.
He is by Zackorado, a modern and talented stallion who combines the influential Zack and Florencio bloodlines, both renowned for producing horses with exceptional power, expression and trainability for the upper levels of dressage. Zackorado himself descends from a strong and highly successful dam line, which has produced numerous highly awarded mares as well as several Grand Prix horses, underlining the strength and consistency of this family.
Zion’s dam, Weisse Perle, comes from the direct dam line of the Grand Prix horse Dream of Dance, a family known for producing horses with quality movement and rideability. This same dam line is also connected to the legendary Weihegold OLD, one of the most successful dressage horses of modern times and a multiple Olympic, World and European Championship gold medallist with Isabell Werth.
With his correct build, kind temperament and exceptional pedigree, Zion is a very exciting young horse for someone looking to produce a talented dressage prospect for the future.
