PERFORMANCE

Very promising from an early age, KOUROS competed very seriously in young horses classes not aiming at any championship but only to prepare for the future. He then knew his first victories in 1,40m classes at the age of 7 under the saddle of Florian ANGOT, but it's with Eric FEVRIER, who got the ride on him the same year, that he achieved his best results:
- Winner of Saint-Lo 3*GP in 2008
- Winner of Dinard 1*GP in 2012
- French Pro 1 Vice-Champion in 2008
- 2^nd of Auvers 2*GP in 2012
- 2^nd of St Hilaire du Harcouet 1,45m GP in 2008
- 2^nd of 1,45m class during Dinard CSI 3* in 2012
- 2^nd of Montfort sur Meu 1,50m GP in 2007
- 3^rd of 1,45m class during Caen CSI 3* in 2008

OFFSPRING

Not used a lot so far, KOUROS' progeny are very few and local. They were only 45 in age to compete in 2022 and 33% had already a French jumping index of 120 or more! Among the best ones:
- ALINE D'HELBY, successful in 1,50m GP with E. FEVRIER, notably winner of Canteleu Pro Elite GP, 2^nd in Monfort sur Meu, 3^rd in Pontivy ... also 4^th of Royan 3*GP and placed during Saint-Lo CSI 4*
- EDORA D'HELBY, labelled "Very Good" at the age of 6, winner in Top 7 GP and then placed in 3*GP only aged of 8!
- DEBIOSA D'ORVAL, 6^th of 4yo National Championship and awarded "Very Good", she then placed up to 1,40m GP
- URVIL D'HELBY, successful in 1,35m GP and 1,40m classes
- FOLIE D'HELBY, finalist of 5- and 6yo National Championships and then placed up to 1,35m GP
- BYBLOS D'HELBY, winner in CSI 1*
- DAHLIA D'HELBY, placed in 1,30m GP
- VOLCAN D'HELBY, approved stallion, sire of HELBY, 3yo French Champion in 2020

CONSIDERATIONS FOR BREEDING

KOUROS definitely brings strength to his products. They also display good balance and covering movement. Like what we would expect with Selle Français Originel, he passes on his great attitude and willingness, but also a lot of blood despite his frame. He will be best bred to typey and not too big mares.
