Prototype is by Palestro Van De Bejanakker an international jumper by Quidam De Revel. Quidam de Revel was among the best performers of his generation and in 2004 topped the World Breeding Championships Jumping Stallion ratings for the second year running. Quidam’s pre-eminence as a sire was confirmed at the 2002 WEG in Jerez where he was the sire of more show jumping participants than any other stallion. At the London 2012 Olympics, there were 11 descendants of Quidam competing. Prototype’s dam also competed in the international jumper ring. She is by Corofino, one of the rare stallions to have received a score of 10 for his jump at the Holstein 100 day test. He was a finalist at four years old and a winner up to M class in Germany, before he was exported to Italy, where he had a brilliant International career under the saddle of Valerio Sozzi. Between the ages of 8 and 16, he created a super record of international achievements with the Italian rider.

Prototype is a 16.3h imported performance stallion. He is brave and steady with a lovely rhythmical canter. He has a fabulous work ethic and is a pleasure to ride. He is shown successfully in the hunter ring by his amateur owner. Prototype also competed in the working hunters at WEF and Hunter Derbies in Canada and the United States, taking the high options with ease.

Prototype has proven to be a very athletic and versatile horse. He has given to his offspring a hunter type, hack winning trot, beautiful canters and a 10 jumping technique with high even knees and a correct bascule. He passes on his amateur friendly and easy going temperament. His eldest offspring is currently showing in DIVISION in Florida, and his 2016 son qualified for the RAWF and shows excellent jumping form. Giselle's older full sister was recently started under saddle.

Zoey competed in the 3' and 3'3" Pre Greens, National Hunter Derbies and the Adult Amateurs.
