ALMANDINE has the particularity to have been born way overdue.It's incredible but she was 11 weeks late, 76 days in fact. She was due on the 4 february and her dam had her foaling on the 27 April !
He dam JAKOSIE had a pregnancy over nearly 14 months. JAKOSIE, daughter of the Thoroughbred Rakosi,was a good winner in CSO (1m40), ISO 140.
Sister to the stallion LE LUOT a good winner CSO-CSI. JAKOSIE is also the dam of CREDO MAIL (Almé) finalist at 5yrs old.
ALMANDINE did not compete at 4 yrs.At 5 she was ridden by Patrick Martin and did the B events, qualifying for the final.At 6 she caught up for lost time and was the CIR Champion at Compiègne, she qualified for the 6 year old finals.And was Champion of the 6 yr old Hunters.
She also took part in the 6 yr old finals at Lanaken where she was placed 11th.She was the leader by winnings in France for 6 yr olds that year.
Winner in CSI at the end of 6yrs and especially at the CSI Seville Winner in CSI at 7? ISO 151, after she became a broodmare at the stud.
A mare with a lot respect,rapidity and courage which made up for her lack of strength.
