Quidam’s Rubin

An extraordinary stallion in European sport horse breeding

A first class main sire, Quidam's Rubin left the breeding stage much too early. In just a few years he had been able to firmly establish himself in the upper league of German jumper-makers. At his 30-day test in Prussendorf in 2002, Quidam’s Rubin received the maximum possible score of 10.0 for his jumping ability, a salute to his ancestors. In 2004 he won tests for young show jumpers and in the fall of that year he left his 70-day test in Neustadt/Dosse as the undisputed victor. In his speciality, show jumping, he received the highest possible score of 10.0 several times. In 2003, the Oldenburg Verband awarded him the I-a main premium in the lot of stallions with emphasis on jumping. In 2005, five sons from his first crop were licensed and in the meantime more than 25 of his sons have been licensed (including Quidamo, Quinnus I and II, Quidam Blue, Quidam Cento, Quintessenz, Quipeggio, Quite Rubin, Qui Lago and many others). His greatest achievements as a sire so far were when his licensed son, Quaid, who breeds at the State Stud Celle, won the class for five-year old show jumpers at the Bundeschampionat 2009 and when Quidam’s Quarz became the Hanoverian Champion of five-year olds. The many other offspring that have competed at the Bundeschampionats in Warendorf underline his worth as a sire.
