SAUVAGE DES MORINS

Versatility through Excellence!

Sauvage des Morins, approved PFS stallion, is available for your pony and horse broodmares, in frozen semen or hand breeding (under conditions) at the Morins stud farm, near Saintes (17).
Sauvage is a stallion with an exceptional character, kind and easy even for young children, yet talented.
Brought out at the age of 4 by a 10-year-old rider, he accumulated rankings, first in showjumping and eventing with a little dressage, then, thanks to his application and ease of use, he specialized in dressage up to Internationals and being selected for the French team for the European Championships.
Then, as his rider was no longer old enough to compete as a pony, a new pairing was formed with another 10-year-old girl, to compete first in showjumping and then in eventing, always with success.
3 years later, Sauvage returned to the stud and was ridden by our daughter for fun. He went on to compete in amateur showjumping up to 115 Grand Prix with good results, and at 144cm tall, he did well in contracts and wide horses.
He was also the partner of a very young rider for 2 months, and won the 4 pony events with his 8 years old accomplice!

I also need to talk about Sauvage's origins, because here too, we're dealing with the exceptional.
His sire, Durello, a German pony, is a recognized breed leader in his country, and for 10 years old was the best sire of showjumping ponies in Germany.
His dam, L'Odyssée du Sud (by Banagher Magee, ranked in the top 15 sires of showjumping ponies and European Championships), is one of the best breeders in the PFS, mentioning "Suprême Classe", and has herself competed very well (French showjumping pony performance index 139 and ISO 120 (French Showjumping pony performance index). Her offspring are indexed between 120 and 162, her offspring between 124 and 139!

Physically, a short, taut back, a beautiful shoulder, perfect leg conformation, a well-oriented shoulder and a descended thigh.

Fertility: 87% of mares in foal in IAC (13/15) including 75% with less than 8 straws and 100% in hand breeding (21/21).

Results: French eventing frozen semen 122, French dressage pony performance index 135 and French dressage pony performance index 145, placing him in the very small group of stallions indexed at over 120 in the 3 Olympic disciplines.
BPO +14 (0.61) and BDR + 6 (0.42)

The plus: your broodmare is a "horse" breed, Sauvage des Morins offers you the possibility of registering the offspring in the New-forest de Croisement studbook, which will enable him to take part in the Cycles Classiques and receive premiums in the same way as if he were a PFS ... and this, whatever the dam's breed!

Additional information and videos available on his page on the élevage des Morins website.

His production

His offspring will start competing in 2024.

However, some of them are already making a name for themselves: his daughter Nikam des Moulins isVice Champion of France dressage foals in 2023 with an average of over 80% and the best trotting score (9/10): and his son Manhattan des Morins gets the best foal scores at the local competition he took part in!

The feedback from the breeders who have already placed their trust in him is more than positive: the offspring are chic, gentle and move well...

Like them, put your trust in an exceptional pony stallion!
