Sired by up and coming international FEI pony Beauty W (Orchard Boginov x Sjapoer ox x Vita Nova's Hanassie). At just 7 years old, Beauty W was on the Dutch European Championship team in 2022 with Esmee Broers and was very successful: With 74.772% they had the highest score on their team helping them secure the silver medal. Their individual freestyle was good for fourth place with a score of 77.485%. Beauty W was then sold to the young, talented German FEI pony rider Nora Feldmann who has successfully competed him to many wins, top placings and scores over 70% in their first season.

The dam of Nieuwmoed's Mr. Valentine, Nieuwmoed's Little Princess is a full sister of the stallion Nieuwmoed's Mr Right (Orchard Red Prince x Coelenhage's Purioso x Valentino). Nieuwmoed's Milord (by Turfhorst Landlord) also comes from the reserve champion mare Keur Preferent Sabine. Among the 13 descendants of Sabine, 5 are approved stallions including Spoorzicht's Salinero (2005, by Orchard Boginov), approved abroad and subsequently a sports pony in Sweden; and the FEI pony Nieuwmoed's Captain (2010, by Orchard Red Prince), Finnish champion for young dressage ponies 4 yrs and 5 yrs.

Valentine arrived in Canada in December of 2023 after being licensed with NRPS in Holland. He was licensed with Westfalen NA in the fall of 2024 with top scores for walk and canter. He and Emmanuelle Lord have been developing a partnership since his arrival and will be ready to hit the show ring next season. He is schooling the basics of the FEI 5yo test and we look forward to his show debut along with the first foal crop starting in April 2025.
