MONTENDER x PAPILLON ROUGE x URIEL SF 25000107711031T, 1.71m, bay, 2007 Breeder: Marianne Eichenberger, Cossaye
This long-legged, refined, and modern stallion adds a significant dimension to our lineup with his exceptionally strong French damline. His sire, Montender, was a mainstay of the German national team for years under Marco Kutscher. The pedigree continues with the legendary French stallions Papillon Rouge and Uriel, where the influence of foundation sire Orange Peel xx is remarkably prominent.
The damline is characterized by an extraordinary number of sport horses; no fewer than ten horses from the direct line are active at 1.45m - 1.60m level. Tokyo du Soleil himself was a key member of the Italian team for many years under Luca Marziani.
His first offspring have been exceptionally well received. They are high-quality, athletic foals with great movement, proving their commercial value with a top price of €33,500 for Soleil Especiale at the Limburg Foal Auction. Furthermore, the first young horses in the sport are now standing out due to their sharp types and exceptional jumping abilities. Tokyo du Soleil will be available via frozen semen in 2026.
