Torino, Himalaya’s sire, is a well-regarded KWPN stallion who competed successfully through the
National Grand Prix level, jumping at heights up to 1.40m. He is by the legendary Heartbreaker, known
for producing offspring with exceptional scope, technique, and temperament. Torino himself is noted for
his balanced conformation, powerful canter, and honest, willing nature—traits he reliably passes on to
his progeny. Among his offspring are approved stallions such as Fidelio JSF and H-Cassino, who continue
to build Torino’s reputation as a sire of quality jumpers.
Jete, is the flagship broodmare at Jump Start Farm and a premium AHHA mare by Columbus, a son of
Calypso II. Jete’s dam was the 1988 National Champion Holsteiner filly by Condino, both of whom share
the same sire, the legendary Cor de la Bryère. Cor de la Bryère revolutionized the Holsteiner breed with
his exceptional jumping technique and bascule, and his influence is evident in Himalaya’s pedigree.
Himalaya JSF is a proven broodmare with a full brother, Fidelio JSF, approved as a stallion, and a half-
sister to four additional approved stallions. With her premium NAS approval, athleticism, and
exceptional bloodlines, Himalaya embodies the ideal modern jumper mare—versatile, talented, and
ready to compete at the highest levels of the sport. She combines refinement, athleticism, and an
exceptional work ethic—qualities that make her both a competitive athlete and a valuable contributor
to breeding programs focused on jumpers.
