LioCalyon - Performance - This son of Liostro is beautiful, athletic and well-mannered. This athletic ability and big heart have led him into the winners circle many times. LioCalyon retired in 2006 after a long and prolific career. He didn't miss a show season in 10 years of competition. He campaigned successfully at the Grand Prix level in California, Oregon and Canada with Many Porter. LioCalyon showed successfully in the North American Young Rider Competition with Megan Ellison.
LioCalyon's sire, Liostro is the last approved son of Ladykiller. Liostro was the leading producer of money winners in the US in 2002. Ladykiller is considered to be one of the most important jumper sires of modern time.
On his dams side, Calypso II's progeny show not only great jumping form, but wonderful rideability. Calypso II's 18 stallion sons include Contendor, Coriolan, Colani, Chassur I and II, to name a few. His grandsire is Cor De La Bryere whose incredible bascule and jumping ability is credited with improving the Holsteiner jumping style. "Corde" passes along strong nerves, intelligence and great willingness to perform. He established many sibling dynasties, Calypso I-V, Corrado I and II, Caletto I-III.
LioCalyon's offspring have entered the show jumping arena and are following in their father's footsteps. Peterbilt (2000) is competing successfully at the Grand Prix level in California and Canada. He has young jumpers competing in New Zealand, Canada and the United States who exhibit his love of jumping and big heart. He also passes on his type, head and correct jumping form.
