Lissabon
1999 Bay Oldenburg Stallion imported from Germany
As a young horse in Germany, Lissabon won both sections of his Stallion Performance Test in Oldenburg. Multiple style-class winner, he received the dream score of 9.3 for his jumping style at the Bundeschampionate Finals with Johannes Ehning. During his short breeding career in Germany, in addition to scores of champion foals and state premium mares, he produced six licensed sons of which Lissaro van der Helle rewrote history after winning three consecutive Bundeschampionate Gold medals.
After progressing to the 1.50m classes as a serial winner, he was imported in 2008. It was here in South Africa with Callaho broodmares that his reputation as a legendary progenitor was truly cemented with reams of progeny now revealing exceptional promise in the open classes, including the big 1.50m tracks. Indomitable at the top of the SASJ Sire Rankings, this magnificent stallion has proven himself, beyond any shadow of a doubt, to be a sire of Warmblood sport horses in a class of his very own.
