The Brazilian Sport Horse is an athletic
horse, tall, agile and potent, calm and brave, and idealized to
the equestrian sports, especially for show jumping, dressage and
eventing. Despite the breed's youth, the Brazilian breeding people
have already sent five horses to the Olympic Games: Aspen, Calei
Joter, Cassiana Joter and Adelfos at Atlanta (1996) and Aspen, Calei
Joter and Marco Metodo at Sydney (2000). Around 50 Brazilian Sport
horses are exported every year to the Americas and many Europe countries.
In 2000, Singular Joter II (full brother of Singular Joter, approved
stallion in Germany) was third place at the World Breeding Championships
for Young Horses, at Lanaken, Belgium, and Bacchus Tok was second
place at the American Championship for Young Horses, at Monterrey,
Mexico, both of them when they were only five years old.
