Concorde ( also known  as Olympic Concorde ) comes from very strong jumping lines on both sides. His sire is the  stallion Voltaire. Voltaire is the number 8 in the World Breeding Rankings for Show jumping Sires  for the period 1992-2001, and also for the season, 2000/2001.

Concorde's dam, Flyer, is by the legendary Marco Polo, one of the most influential Dutch stallions in breeding and jumping.

For the last three years Concorde has been the sire with the most offspring at the World Breeding Championships for young horses. In  2001 the "preferent" Concorde had proved himself to be an absolute top sire of international sport-horses. He has produced 17 Grand Prix jumpers.
