Through dam Jourwies and granddam Edelweis, Nourwies traces back to the Ladykiller xx daughter Shoraya. This mare stood at the basis of an impressive list of Grand Prix showjumpers and approved stallions, including Olympic silver medallist VDL Bubalu, Aldato, Pessoa VDL, Montreal VDL, Cika, et cetera.

Granddam’s sire: Wellington brings in the valuable genes of Stallion of the Century Nimmerdor and is on the dam side definitely one of his most influential sons. With his world-famous son Emilion, Wellington’s influence on modern showjumping breeding is still great.
