Both stallions sadly passed away too early, but the (still young) progeny of El Torreo de Muze and By Cera d'Ick continues to set high standards.
By Cera
For example, Jyrado vh Bovenhoekshof (s. By Cera d'Ick) won the GP2* of Oliva with Jérôme Guery, after they also came second in a ranking class. In turn, Jonathan Chabrol and Fashion Victim DK (s. By Cera d'Ick) won a 1.40m class. Ricardo Valadas Coelho and Orion Ter Doorn (s. Elvis Ter Putte) grabbed place four in the GP. In several classes over 1.45m, there were placings for Marc Houtzager on Dwivoli van de Groote Kamps Z (s. Denzel van ‘t Meulenhof), Bart Jay Junior Vandecasteele on Vamos de la Pomme d'Or Z (s. Vigo d'Arsouilles), Annabel Francis on Nebraska van ‘t Vianahof (s. Elvis Ter Putte), Graham Babes on Monks I Am Casall (s. I'm Special de Muze) and Duarte Seabra on Van Halen Z (s. Vigo d'Arsouilles). There were also quite a few close places of honour in the various 1.40m classes, including for Kendra Claricia Brinkop with Que Passa de Regor (s. Scendro) and Eau de Vie Jeleena Dr Z (s. Elvis Ter Putte), Niklaus Schurtenberger with Joan (s. I'm Special de Muze), Mia Mannis with Niagara de Muze Z (s.
