Instagram Morinda was born on the
18th of May 2018. He is the full brother ofHydromel
Morinda, but unlike Hydromel, he chose to ignore the colour of his
parents and selected a beautiful chestnut coat, either inherited
from Baloubet du Rouet, his dam’s grandfather, or
possibly passed down by Ulyss from Laudanum.
This beautiful colt was brought up with Imperium Morinda until
his sale. He left us as a yearling, was sold on at the start of his
second year, and we found him again at the end of 2020. He was
presented for the Selle Français Stallion qualifiers at Saint-Lô,
where he demonstrated his superb style and potential. But we’ve
decided to castrate him: he will be devoted to sport.
Instagram has the same character as Ulyss, extremely gentle and
pliable. In his case, it was not gained from his mother who has a
strong personality. But Ulyss always passes his character on to his
youngstock.
In 2022, Instagram, having grown into a beautiful four-year-old,
resumed work again and was broken in. But he was only in work for a
few months, as we wanted to allow him to grow and mature. In any
case, he still shows the same quality over poles.
In 2023, as a five-year-old, he has worked more seriously and is
preparing for his first competitions.
Père : Ulyss Morinda SF
His father Ulyss Morinda, 5 *at the
CIRALE, comes from base bloodline that was marked 8 out of 10 by
the Selle Français studbook. The line goes back to the Grand Prix
mare Utricule (by Monceaux,TB) and then
to her daughter Piperazine Laleu, mother of several excellent
horses. Ulyss is a carrier of 5 Thoroughbred blood lines, one of
which is the famous Laudanum but there’s also Ladykiller, Furioso,
Pericles and Monceaux. As a maternal grandfather he also
has JALISCO B whom he very much
resembles. You can go to his page to see the details of his
wonderful bloodline and photos and videos of his performances.
Ulyss Morinda, Hunter Champion of France as a six year old came
back to his true discipline, the CSO in 2015 as a seven year old.
Ridden from now on by Rik Hemeryck (a Belgian), he won the Young
Stallions SF Masters for seven year olds (classed as ‘Very
Promising’ by the ANSF) and at nine years old, he was already a
winner and had been placed in numerous outings in 1.50m classes
(CSI 3*). He took part in his first CSI 5* in Rotterdam in June
2017 and his first 1.55m at the end of the year. He is ISO 150
(2017).
In 2018, Ulyss confirmed his quality, at the start of the year
being placed in the 3* 1m50 Grand Prix at Bonheiden only half a
second behind Daniel Deusser, being placed 7th in
the 1m50 Bourg en Bresse Show Jumping (4*) and soaring over the
1m55 course at Maubeuge with an unbelievable casual air. Still
ridden by Rik Hemeryck, he was then placed in
the 1m60 Grand Prix, and successfully participated in his first
Nations’ Cup (Gijon CSIO 5*) and obtained an ISO 160 in
2018.
In 2019 he continued to make progress : he was placed many times
over 1m50 and 1m55, and won the 1m60 Grand Prix in the UK in front
of Laura Kraut (see the News section). He also took part in his
first 5* Rolex Grand Prix, and proved that he clearly has the
capability to jump these courses. He obtained an ISO 163 for 2019,
and in 2020, at only 12 years of age, has exceeded 100,000 Euros in
winnings.
Première mère : Karola Du Rouet AES
His mother, Karola du Rouet, is a daughter of
Baloubet Jr (who reached the 1m60 level), himself a son of the
famous Baloubet du Rouet with a mother by
Darco. The blood of Galoubet A and Almé is blended
in this other founding father, Darco: what a pedigree!
Karola du Rouet produced an approved stallion son as well as a
daughter, Karola du Marome, who competes in 1m25 classes. She also
has a uterine brother named Clochard, an absolutely stunning
coloured stallion who competed up to 1m45 CSI, before being sold to
a wealthy amateur in the USA.
Deuxième mère : Karola
Karola, by Zortin, produced a very charistmatic
stallion in CLOCHARD, who competed successfully in
classes up to 1m45 with Pim Mulder (NLD) before going to the
USA.
Troisième mère : Karola
Karola (of the same name) by Flaneur. Amongst
her descendants it’s worth noting Belu’ga who jumped up to 1m45
level.
