Tornado VS, a Holsteiner by Toulon, is recognized as one of the best Show Jumping horses nationally and internationally. Alongside rider Armando Trapote, they were the top pair at CSIO5* Barcelona, completing 1.60 m rounds faultlessly. In 2022 they became Spanish Absolute Champions, and in 2023 their double-clear at the European Championship secured Spain’s team qualification for the 2024 Paris Olympics, where Tornado is a team member. Although gelded and without offspring, his clones will ensure his genetics and quality endure.
