Bred by Martinus Paesen, Peer, Belgium. Died 6/2006. Darco, a Belgian Warmblood,was one of the most successful show jumping horses ever and was also one of the top breeding sires (over 3,000 foals) worldwide for jumping horses. Darco commenced his career as a breeding stallion in 1984, and since then has been enormously successful. In the WBFSH standings for 1999-2000, Darco finished 8th, with 35 progeny contributing to his ranking. His most famous offspring is Otterongo who just missed out on an individual medal at the Sydney Olympic Games. Darco is a rather solid type and cross best over elegant mares with lots of ‘blood’. article: http://www.horsemagazine.com/thm/2010/08/darco/
