Haras de Hus
Founded in 2005 by French entrepreneur Xavier Marie, Haras de Hus focused on high performance dressage and show jumping start.
Dressage rider Jessica Michel-Botton achieved the stud's first major successes by representing France at the 2012 Olympic Games in London on Riwera de Hus. She also won bronze at the World Young Horse Championships and an incalculable number of French champion titles.
