Cinderella Van't Gebergte Z, known as Pumpkin, is a 2024 Zangersheide mare with a pedigree built around proven top-level sport and a very influential maternal family.

She is by Comme il Faut, the 1.60m son of Cornet Obolensky and Ratina Z, and is directly out of Kissable van 't Heike, a 1.40m mare by Numero Uno.

Kissable is a half-sister to Jos Lansink's Olympic 1.60m mare Valentina van 't Heike, placing Pumpkin very close to one of the most important sport mares in the family.

Even more significantly, Pumpkin's dam has already produced two 1.60m stallions and a 1.50m mare, proving her ability to consistently produce high-level sport horses.

With Comme il Faut on top and such a strong producing mare underneath, Pumpkin is a particularly exciting prospect for both future sport and breeding.
