The father line of Vegas consists of international show jumpers and proven jumper producers. Atlantic competed at the highest level, his full brother In Style, is one of the best horses at Grand Prix level in the USA and Canada and competed at the Olympic Games 2008. Grandfather Jus de Pomme is a legend, who won the Individual and team Gold at the Olympics in Atlanta. Lots of his offspring compete at Grand Prix level, such as Play On, Quervo Gold, O de Pomme, Marlou and Octavia. Other stallions we find in his pedigree are Wellington, Orthos, Joost and Rigoletto, who all proved that they belong to the best sires. They are father to horses such as VIP, Glennridge, Queen of Diamonds, Arizona, Carrera and Emilion. Welllington and Joost competed by them selves at international level.
The full sister to Vegas’ mother, Melandra, competes at international 1.50 level, while a brother of Melandra competes at 1.40 level. The mareline is known as the ‘Landra-line’. This line produced a lot of national and international show jumpers such as Easy Boy, Black Power and Santa Claus.
