Vivant has an interesting and diverse pedigree. He is over 50% thoroughbred. His sire, Fuego Du Prelet, from the premium stallion line of Alme Z, was successful in international show jumping at 1.60m with Dirk Demeersman. His dam's sire, Landino (by Landgraf 1) was successful for many years with Belgian rider Ludo Philippaerts.
Vivant van de Heffinck has long been considered one of the most sought-after stallions in international show jumping. This modern stallion has excellent technique, scope and a very good character. An Olympic horse, Vivant can boast of having qualified for the World Cup finals 5 times. In 2010, he took 7th place in the World Cup Final, won the Munich Indoors Championship and was the 5th best show jumping stallion in the world. He was a first rate for the Beijing Olympics and placed 4th in the Aachen Grand Prix, 3rd in the Bremen GP, won the Hagen GP and competed in the London Olympics in 2012.

Retrained at 18 years old, Vivant's longevity at international studs is a testament to his very correct conformation. Although some frozen semen was available prior to his retirement, it is only now that we are realizing his progeny and performance capabilities.
