Hall of Fame
The Hall of Fame-MoMs have ended their careers as MoMs and are no longer available to breeders.
During their well-deserved retirement, they either enjoy grazing all day on the vast pastures of our Mares of Macha farm, Borgo la Caccia, or they return to their ‘home’ stable where they are eagerly awaited by their former owner/rider to let them spend their old age at home.
Contara
Contara was a respected international performer under André Plath, but she really made her mark as the dam of the undisputed world-leading sire, Chacco-Blue.
Contara lived to be 30 years old and grazed until her last day in the fields of our Mares of Macha farm, Borgo la Caccia, in Italy. There she enjoyed her old age in the company of her regular group of MoMs and received excellent care from our Borgo team.
For us, having Contara at Mares of Macha was a true privilege.
Molly Malone
Molly Malone and Bertram Allen won the CSIO 5* Grand Prix of Lummen in 2014. A month later, they finished 4th in the Rotterdam Grand Prix. Another 2 months after that, they won the holy grail for Irish riders in their home country: the CSIO 5* Grand Prix in Dublin.
After a successful partnership, Molly has returned to her owners to continue her much-deserved retirement.
Whoopie C
Whoopie C has 3 offspring old enough to compete in Grands Prix, and all 3 of them do. Beijing Z jumps in 1.50m classes, Donatella H jumped the World Equestrian Games in Tryon, and Tobago Z is probably one of the best horses in the world.
Whoopie C now spends the rest of her old age together with Reine-Fee in the fields of a spacious horse farm in the peaceful West Flanders region of Belgium.
Oceane de Nantuel
Oceane de Nantuel won 15 international classes with Titouan Schumacher and Pedro Veniss. At the famous farm of the Hécart family, she gave 3 foals, all of whom are Black Type performers.
In early January 2023, at the age of 21, Oceane returned to her home base: Zangersheide stud farm in Belgium. On the Zangersheide pastures, she will spend her well-earned retirement after a remarkable career as a distinguished sport horse and MoM.
Magie de Menardiere
French-bred Magie de Menardiere was the French national champion of 5-year-old horses. She is the mother of the two 5* performers Queensland E and Winnetou de la Hamente Z.
Magie passed away in September 2022. We keep the best memories of this beautiful MoM and believe that her fantastic offspring in the sport, both today and in the future, will preserve the wonderful legacy and memory of Magie.
Prima Donna van 't Paradijs
Prima Donna van ’t Paradijs, a successful international performer herself, is the mother of Ultra-Top van ’t Paradijs and Venezia d’Ecaussines.
After her career as a MoM, Prima Donna returned to her former home: the land estate of Luc Henry in the Walloon part of Belgium. Surrounded by lots of love and receiving the best care of Luc, she now enjoys her merited rest there.
Donatella-N
Donatella-N is a genuine World Cup winner. The mare by Vigo d’Arsouilles won the World Cup of Gothenburg.
After 2 years of grazing as a MoM on the Borgo la Caccia estate, Donatella set course back to Belgium. There, she was warmly welcomed by the Philippaerts family to spend her old age at their family domain in Oudsbergen.
Reine-Fee des Hazalles
Reine-Fee spent her entire sporting career in the hands of Fabienne Daigneux and was led to World Cup and Grand Prix successes. Her daughter, Venue d’Fees Des Hazalles, is a Pan American Games medalist with the USEF Equestrian Team under Eve Jobs, and a finalist of the 2019 World Cup season.
Reine-Fee now spends the rest of her old age on the pastures of a big horse farm in the quiet region of West Flanders in Belgium, together with Whoopie C.
