Clair de Lune SE is one of the hottest young stallions in the US today. Bred in the US by Rose Sullivan as a show jumper, (Contendor/CalypsoII/Alme), it was evident in his early years that he loved to compete in eventing! He is currently transitioning from eventing with Pan-Am gold medalist Marilyn Little who had 4**** plans for him until he got injured in sport, to 3 time Olympic gold medalist Rich Fellers, where he has started competing in showjumping.
After winning the coveted YEH west coast finals in ‘09 with a 87.78% score, and winning almost every event he competed in, through FEI levels, he got injured in sport. In 2009 and 2010 he won the BWP Lifetime Achievement Award for eventing, and the AHHA Performance award for eventing. He was the Winner of the BWP foal futurity prize money in 2012, when two of his weanling colts scored 1st and 2nd in the national futurity.
Clair de Lune SE’s oldest off spring are starting to compete and do well in sport! As foals, his offspring have won several high point championships and the BWP Foal Futurity monies. Some highlights of his offspring wins are: In 2016 YEH finals at Fair Hill are 3rd in conformation out of 35 for Sierra de Lune SE (CDL x Liostro/Dynamo) in the 5 yr olds, and 6th in dressage out of 21 in the 4 year olds, (82.4%) for Campeon SE (CDL x Pikadero) with partner Taryn Nolte in the irons with both youngsters. At the West coast YEH finals Creme de la Creme SE (CDL x Cathalido/Calido I/Liostro/ Sabotage) was 6th overall. Creme has won his first 2 events on his dressage score of 22 with Alexis Helffrich aboard.
From 2010-2014 Clair de Lune SE offspring have had dozens of wins in FEH Championship, including a FEH Grand Champions. His babies have scored no lower than 80% and up to 89% as well as a FEH Championship win. His stallion son, Cosimo SE with Frederic Bouland in the irons has won almost every event he has competed in following in his daddy’s footsteps. He received the USEA “blue ribbon award” and the USEA Best Training horse/rider combo for 2016.
