Van Gogh was the undisputed KWPN performance test champion of 2005. During the last years no other KWPN stallion has received as many points as Van Gogh at his performance test.

This son of Numero Uno was not only rewarded for his great jumping skills but also his fantastic movement. The dam line of Van Gogh produced many international showjumping and dressage horses.

Out of his first years we find numerous horses successful in 1.60m GP showjumping as well as Grand Prix dressage. Especially worth mentioning is the gelding Cosmo (Van Gogh x Frühling), one of the most talented dressage horses in the world, and gold medal winner of the 2016 Rio de Janeiro Olympic Games.

Successful 1.60m showjumpers by Van Gogh are among others Bella Brown (sm. Gran Corrado), Dalton (sm. Naturel), Le Vio (sm. Drosselklang) and Fabio (sm. Celano) who recently won the World Cup GP at Guadalajara, Mexico.

The 2015 show season was a tremendous success for Van Gogh and Marco Kutscher, winning the GCT GP in Valkenswaard, the CSI5* LA Masters GP and the CSI5* Hong Kong GP 2016. These great performances have resulted in this combination being preliminary nominated for the 2016 Olympics in RIO.

Van Gogh, who has been part of the German Championship team for years was successful in many international shows and nations cups under the saddle of Marco Kutscher, winning among others the GCT in Valkenswaard, the EEM LA Masters, the EEM Hong Kong Masters and the Zürich Championat.
