Cadmus van Reed (Chacco Fly x Balou du Rouet) will continue his development in Mexico.
Mauricio Ruiz Horses started 2024 with lots of horse requests from our clients.
We were able to successfully find the right horses for these requests!
– Caravaggio (Cicero x Arko III), this 6-year-old gelding will continue his young horse career in Colombia under the saddle of Mauricio Guevara. With Caravaggio, we were able to participate in the World Jumping Breeding Championship for young horses in Lanaken in 2023.
– Homebred Vadanti van Reed (Emerald Van`t Ruytershof x Vangogh), a 3-year-old stallion, will be traveling to Colombia to join his new owner at Hipica Versailles.
– And Pokerface GV (Dieu Merci x Drossan) , a 9-year-old wonderful Zangersheide mare will continue her great sports career under the saddle of a Colombian junior rider. We are pretty sure they will achieve a lot of success in the coming time.
We finished the year 2023 with happy clients. We found new owners for Jelena, Dilayla, Icarus, and Lolita.
We are pleased that our clients found the right horses for different purposes. Jelena, a 10-year-old KWPN mare, and Lolita, an 8-year-old KWPN mare will continue in the USA. Icarus, a 10-year-old Zangersheide gelding will continue his career in Colombia under the saddle of a Junior rider. And last but not least our 8-year-old Zangersheide mare Dilayla will continue her career with Vasco Flores in the USA.
We wish all of them a lot of success with their new horses.
Elite du Lys and Pokerface GV finished 2023 with great results in the Spanish Tour in MET Oliva in November.
Elite du Lys stepped up in the 1m45 LR classes and got placed in 3 of them.
Pockerface got placed in 5 out of 6 classes including the small GP 1m40.
We are delighted to see the improvement during this year for all our horses and we thank our owners who trust us with the management and work we do for their horses.
Is very pleasing to see Elite du Lys, 9 year old gelding stepping up and placed in the 1m45 level. We look forward to the debut at the international level with this great horse.

Cornets Spezi
In September 2022 we had the pleasure to have this amazing 7-year-old gelding by Cornet Obolensky for a couple of weeks, before selling it to our good customer Mauricio Restrepo in Colombia. We hope to see Restrepo and Cornets Spezi jumping the bigger tracks in Colombia in a few years!
Vanya
In October 2022 Vanya left for Saudi Arabia to join her new rider. Vanya arrived at our stable in December 2021 with little experience in the shows and in flat work. It took us a few months to give Vanya good rideability and enough experience before we could match her with the right customer. We wish them lots of success in Saudi Arabia.
Winston van Reed
Most of the time we want to keep the nice horses we breed, but is our responsibility as a professional stable to always give a profit to our investors. Therefore in November 2022, our 6-month-old homebred colt by Cumano out of the dam line of Douglas VDL was sold to a stud farm in France. We hope for the owners that Winston van Reed will become a good show jumper stallion in the future.
Dolphine de Muze
We are glad that most of our clients trust our professional knowledge and our ethics when selling horses so they can feel 100% confident when buying their new horses through the videos and all the information we supplied them. In December 2022, we found the right match for one of our clients in the US. They will jump the 1m30 classes with the wonderful 9-year-old mare Dolphine de Muze. We wish them lots of success.
Born in 2018, home-bred Cassius del Caribe showed a perfect hunter style from an early age.
We thank the new owners at Hardie Horses for trusting us and we wish them lots of success in developing Cassius in his hunter carreer.
Mauricio Ruiz Horses acknowledges the trust that our clients have in us by giving us the enormous responsibility to find and sell them the horses through videos and information.
Our gratitude to our clients is to find the best horse we can offer regardless of their budget.
We wish the new Colombian owners of Could be Blue (6 years old gelding by Casalco), Vigorada (6 years old mare by (Vigo d’Arsouille), and Quick Gin (6 years old stallion by Glenfiddish), lots of success with these amazing young future Grand Prix prospects.
