QUEL HOMME DE HUS RETIRES FROM SPORT

The eighteen-year-old Holstein stallion, Quel Homme de Hus, has retired from the sport and will now focus on his breeding duties full-time.
Quel Homme de Hus had much success under Belgian rider Jérôme Guery. At the 2021 Tokyo Olympics, the combination was part of the bronze medal-winning team. They won the Mexico leg of the GCT, and they also won multiple Grand Prix, including Barcelona, Vejer de la Frontera and Knokke. They were the silver medalists at the World Equestrian Games in Herning the following year.
The stallion was out with an injury from the Prague Playoffs in 2022 until he returned to Grand Prix level again this year in May at the LGCT of Madrid. He went from strength to strength and competed at the Paris Olympics – a big goal for his team.
He is the son of Quidam de Revel, one of showjumping’s legends. At the 2012 London Olympics, Quidam had eleven offspring competing and although Quidam passed away a decade ago, we are sure to see his influence in showjumping pedigrees for many years to come.
Quel Homme de Hus is from the Holsteiner mare family 4847, the same line that produced the stallion Cachas. This mare line also produced the stallions Lancer I—III and Cascadello I + II.
Quel Homme de Hus is known for his kindness, character, elegance and athleticism, which he passes on to his offspring.
“At 18 years old, our dear QH is in great physical shape, and we want to keep him that way for a long time to come. That is why, with great emotion, we announce today the retirement of our wonderful companion, Quel Homme de Hus.” – quelhommedehus.com 25 November.
