Cryozootech presented on Sunday, 4th February, at the Top Sire Show in Bourg en Bresse, France, the "E.T.Cryozootech-Stallion", clone of "E.T." show jumping gelding, who has had with the rider Hugo Simon the best record of winning in show jumping. "E.T.Cryozootech-Stallion" will give possibility to breeders to dispose of the castrated "E.T."' genes.

The stallion born on June 2nd 2006, is a clone resulting from cells taken from the castrated show jumping champion E.T. FRH and is intended for breeders as it carries identical DNA genetic content.

Birth of "E.T.Cryozootech-Stallion"'s first offspring is planned for 2009.

He has a good solid build. I actually like him- He looks like he could be a very nice horse no matter how he was "created".

Is that a strange lump under his ear or am seeing things? Dont agree with cloning in any form but it will be interesting to see how cloned equines do in the future. Im waiting to say "told you so".
