Validation's sire, Vallado comes from the successful Now or Never M and Saros xx (or Saros xx via Belisar) cross that is producing many outstanding young sport horses, approved stallions, and ster mares.  At the KWPN judgement of the three year old progeny in 2003, the following remarks were made about Vallado's sire, Now or Never M, "The former champion of the stallion show, Now or Never M, of whom it has been made public that he will serve in Germany, scores the highest in this group.  He produces correct and strong models, who move correctly, which has resulted in a high percentage of ster predicates".  Now or Never M is from the exceptional bloodlines of Voltaire (jumping index 152 / dressage index 130), Nimmerdor (jumping index 156), and Maykel.  Maykel is the sire of the international show jumper, Cavalier.  Vallado's dam, a ster predicate mare, was sired by the improvement Thoroughbred sire, Saros (dressage index 156), who comes from a strong line of successful steeplechasers, race winners, and sport horses.  Saros' dam also produced Swazi, the sire of the good Trakehner stallion, Consul.  Vallado's second dam, a keur predicate mare, was sired by the Holsteiner stallion, Important.  Vallado's third dam, Jacaranda, produced Baranda dam of the approved stallions, Uccello and Gouverneur, and Feranda who was successful in dressage in addition to producing the approved stallion, Terrano. Jacaranda was sired by the Holsteiner stallion, Amor (jumping index 139), who was a very successful sire with Dutch mares producing many international competition horses and approved stallions.

Validation's dam, Rexana, earned 50 bonits at her mare approvals in Germany and is a Premium Select mare.  His second dam, Eibe III, is a product of the very successful Capitol I / Sacramento Song xx which has produced successful showjumpers such as Campesino, Campione, and Capitalist.  His third dam, Rasandra, is a full sister to the international sporthorse and approved stallion, Sympathico, and Nalome, dam of the approved stallion, Le Noir, international sporthorse, Leonidas 40, and D-Lucca, dam of the approved stallion, Caron.  Rexana's stamm line, 2067, has produced many approved stallions and international showjumpers including Landstreicher, Lausbub, Leonardo, and Lordon 3.
