Conformation and temperament:

Daxibus is a fast learner, always eager to please his rider. He exhibits a very good work ethic and is “all business” when he enters the ring.
Daxibus is a beautiful sporthorse showing strength, suppleness and self-confidence. Daxibus is copper chestnut with an expressive and refined head. He has soft eyes, a cute blaze and one large hind sock.

From a conformation standpoint, Daxibus Normandy is everything one can expect from a jumper stallion. He has a well-developed large frame, a good square shape with an adequate length of neck. Loin and gaskin are well connected. His big shoulders and powerful hindquarters complement his nice top-line. Daxibus is definitely built to be a Sire.

Markings

  SELLE FRANCAIS INSPECTION

“Daxibus Normandy shows a very good technique with a powerful take-off and a big scope. He is very careful, steady and consistent, with good reflex, balance and bascule.”

sBs INSPECTION

"Beautiful stallion, great canter, very good balance, powerful and great jumping technique"

Breeding advice:

Because of his adequate size, excellent conformation and good temperament, Daxibus Normandy is easy to breed. While he suits a wide array of mares, he  however pairs very well with medium-sized compact mares with blood. Foals are refined, curious and very social. Daxibus also throws a lot of interesting markings (see pictures below)

Daxibus is a great choice for mares who need improvement with their canter, take-off and scope, but also temperament and refinement.

​​​PEDIGREE

Diamant de Semilly and Galoubet A: Two bloodlines that MUST be present in any relevant breeding program!

A flawless bloodline...

Daxibus' sire: DIAMANT DE SEMILLY,  the sire of all superlatives!
2016 and 2015 world #1 showjumper stallion (WBFSH ranking). He is ranked #2 in 2017, 2018, 2019 & 2020.
Diamant de Semilly sired (and is still siring!) numerous international showjumpers like:
Diarado, Don VHP, Emerald, Quickly de Kreisker, Rock’N Roll Semilly, Urano de Cartigny,... the list would be too long to              mention them  all!

Daxibus' second sire is the foundation sire  GALOUBET A, "who is shaping as the most important stallion in the line from Ibrahim through Almé and is probably the most influential jumping sire in the second decade of the 21st Century" (Horse Magazine).

It would be too long to mention all his successful offspring, we will just mention two other legends Baloubet du Rouet and Quick Star.

Daxibus' dam, ISADORA PINON competed up to 1.40m before being retired after an unfortunate stifle injury at the age of 10.
She is the only daughter of the renowned Grand Prix showjumper (and multi winner) mare Pinon Lili.

Daxibus' second dam is PINON LILI, (aka FIVELVREUGD) the phenomenal 1.60m Grand Prix Show Jumper mare ridden by Irish rider Damian Gardner and US rider Mandy Porter.  Just in the USA (excluding Europe and Canada), Pinon Lili competed in 121 classes and placed in the top eight 82 times (almost 70%)!  

Daxibus has a line breeding on another legend of the sport horse world: IBRAHIM"One of the greatest sires in the history of horse breeding" (Horse Magazine).

The stallion is 3/4 brother of Fast Flo (1.60m), Radja d'Artemis (1.60m), Monark (1.60m) and Coupd'Coeur d'Euskadi (1.50m)

Daxibus has 2 sisters: Con Sopresa (picture below) belonging to GP rider Gianna Aycock,  who is 1 year older, is competing at 1.40m (in 2022) and Con Stellation Normandy who was injured and never competed but has 2 very promising offspring: Harthago Normandy (picture below) and Fayette Normandy (s0ld).
