Nina Mallevaey
Grand Prix Rider · France
Currently ranked World No. 6 and the highest-ranked female rider in the world, Nina is particularly drawn to 160Foals’ data-driven approach to dam-line analysis. Her own top mares, Dynastie de Beaufour and Nikka van de Bisschop, are powerful examples of the importance of elite maternal families, both coming from dam lines with more than 20% of siblings reaching the international 1.60m level.
François Mathy Sr
Olympian · Breeder · Belgium
Olympic medallist, legendary horseman, lifelong breeder, and one of the most influential dealers of Grand Prix horses across the 20th and 21st centuries. Decades spent at the very top of the sport have reinforced his conviction that the strongest predictor of greatness remains the depth and consistency of the dam line.
