Descendant:
The father of Kardesh is Etoulon VDL, who is classified as international 1.50m under Jur Vrieling and through his Grand Prix-classified sire Toulon he is a grandson of the preferend stallion Heartbreaker. Etoulon VDL already delivered various foal champions, performance test toppers, and IBOP toppers. Kardesh's maternal line starts with his dam Eukarla II elite EPTM-jumping PROK, who received multiple eights during her EPTM test. She has the Keur stallion Zirocco Blue VDL as sire, who for years was among the absolute world top under Jur Vrieling. The gold team medal and the individual fifth place at the European Championship in Aachen is just one of the successes of the combination. Eukarla II is a full sister of Ernesto Canseco's international 1.40m horse Fugero Carlos and a 1.30m horse from the same father. Their dam Tiekarla V star preferent performance (by Corland) also produced a 1.30m horse by Lupicor and an LT dressage horse by Veron, and she is the grandmother of the international 1.45m horse Gogo Karla (by Zirocco Blue VDL), who was ranked high under Willem Greve during the World Cup in Lanaken. The third dam, Eukarla Keur preferent performance (by Maple), produced three 1.30m show jumpers and is the grandmother of the GP horse Wouskarla (by Lux) by Suzanne Tepper and the international 1.40m horse by Glossy Carlos (by Zirocco Blue VDL).
