Time is on his side. Like him, his progeny do not play the game of precocity. They had to learn their trade, and now they are ready. Ivanhowe's offspring excelled in all categories in 2025, propelling their sire into the top 20 of jumps stallions. Their names are It’s Win O’Clock (Gr.1 Prix Renaud du Vivier, Gr.3 Prix Pierre de Lassus, 3rd Gr.2 Prix Amadou), Lombo Sacré and Macho Man, winners over hurdles at Auteuil, Laccio Conti and Lowell, winners over hurdles at Compiègne, and also Quai de Bourbon in Ireland (3rd Gr.3 Irish Grand National at Fairyhouse). And not forgetting the top-class flat performer, Match Amical, winner of the Gr.3 AQPS Prix de l’Avenir at Nantes. A globetrotting champion and four-time Gr.1 scorer in Europe and Australia, Ivanhowe was successful at the highest level from the age of four, carried by his imposing physique. Under his “bonnet”, Ivahowe boasts German genetics, the tough engine of champions. His sire is the top sire Soldier Hollow, his dam was placed in the German Oaks and has also produced a Gr.1 winner over jumps. Like a finely tuned motor, the stallion's rise to prominence is smooth and is set to continue given his large reservoir of horsepower already in training and youngstock in the fields.
