Description / Performances:
Athos is the first foal we bred from Fame Utopia. When we started loose jumping him he showed limitless scope. He was selected for the Fences Elite Auction in 2015, where he was bought by Michelle Caroli (CAN).
Athos started his training with with Baptiste Coupérie Eiffel at Les Ecuries du Grand Veneur (FRA). As a four and six-year old he was National Champion in Fontainebleau in the Hunter Classes.
In 2019 Athos was moved to the USA, where he started competing on the USHJA Circuit (US Hunter Jumper Association) under Jacob Pope (USA) who considers him a top prospect for the future. “Athos Van Het Poeleind Z is really a special horse. I think he is going to be great. He is just a little green here and there.” (July 2019)
