Given the outstanding quality and consistent performance, the demand for offspring of Aganix du Seigneur Z is skyrocketing, as evidenced by record auction sales like Nikora TSH, which was sold for an astounding 1,900,000 euros, and Ay Caramba Z, who reached 900,000 euros at Zangersheide Quality Jumpers – powered by MBA.
The success of Aganix du Seigneur Z as a sire is further underscored by an impressive lineup of approved sons, boasting over fifty licensed sons across various studbooks, including the rising stars from Studfarm Zangersheide’s own catalogue: Allroad Z, Ansingh de Lis Z, Asgreen 2000 Z and Ambassador Z.
One thing is clear that Aganix du Seigneur Z is a pathway to success!
