Lineage
Cupido is by Daddy Cool (Don Davidoff x Calido I), out of the elite sport (dres) mare Promise (s.Jazz). Cupido's granddam Erijke is a ster preferent prestatie mare by Ulft. She produced three dressage horses which compete at Z-level or higher and two Z-level jumpers. The dam-line continues with the keur preferent prestatie mare Arijke, a Sultan daughter. Arijke is the dam of a ZZ-advanced level dressage horse and a Z2-level dressage horse. Next in the dam-line is Penny, a ster mare by Jurgen out of Marijke (s.Frappant).

Inspection Report
Cupido is an honest and reliable stallion with a good temperament. He is very willing to work and has good trainability. The walk is clear with very good scope and elasticity.
