Broodmares

Solotaenzerin in foal to Moorlands Totilas

2004, height 17.0 ½ h.h.

We purchased the modern and eagerly working full sister to the exceptional mare "Silberaster" at the Oldenburg Elite Auction in 2007. "Silberaster" won the Federal Championships in 2006 and 2007, and in 2008, she earned the bronze medal at the World Breeding Dressage Championships for Young Horses in Verden. Following an injury, Solotänzerin will now start her career as brood mare. She will continue to occupy the special place in our stable she already had as competition horse. Following several months at the veterinarian university hospital in Utrecht/Netherlands, our mare "Solotaenzerin" returned to our stable in perfect state of health. If everything goes well, she will give birth to two foals in 2011, one mid of March and the other at the beginning of April. Sire of the two foals is the outstanding stallion Moorlands Totilas. Solotaenzerin was bred to Moorlands Totilas. The surrogate mare Atesse will also deliver a foal from the same cross next year.

Ballade

*1998, height 16.1 ¾ h.h.

Ballade’s sire Bonheur is obviously refined by Bolero-blood. The FN breed value estimation features his very positive genetic qualities for dressage. His son Burlington is successfully competing at international advanced level show jumping classes. The Stallion of the Century Weltmeyer is Ballade’s dam’s sire, a trademark stallion of the Hanoverian dressage horse breed. His progeny are successful in international dressage sport, for example Meggle’s Welt All VA, Flyinge VDL Wetano, Vincent and many others more. Ballade gave birth to an extremely gorgeous and big moving filly by Sandro Hit-son St. Moritz in 2007. In 2009, she had a fantastic colt by our Mr. Touchdown. For 2010, she was bred to Sir Donnerhall, the no. 1 of the current dressage breed value estimation.

Balalaika (dam of our World Champion Desperado OLD

*1995, height 16.1 ½ h.h.

She is the dam of Desperado OLD, the winner of the 2008 World Breeding Dressage Championships for Young Horses in Verden with Nadine Plaster. Bred to Royal Hit, Balalaika gave birth to the modern-shaped Remember Me, also in our possession. She descends from the Hanoverian foundation stock of Oboe from which the approved stallions Leibwächter, Hohenzollern, Wattenkieker and Sterntaler come from, too. In 2008, Balalaika gave birth to a full brother to Desperado OLD, in 2009 to a full sister that pleases everybody with her shiny black colour and her captivating presence. We of course repeated this perfect combination in 2009 and are looking forward to Desperado OLD’s third full sibling in 2010.

Caprice

*1998, height 16.1 ¾ h.h.

The bay Holstein mare descends from Carpaccio and carries perfect bloodlines via Ricardo, Landgraf I and Marlon xx. Caprice is a typey mare with extraordinary movements. Her son Daktari by Donautanz is the 2009 Baden-Württemberg National Champion of three-year-old horses with a final score of 8.75. The five-year-old Dolce Vita, also by Donautanz, qualified for the 2009 Federal Championships of five-year-old dressage horses and was Vice Champion at the South German Championships in Nördlingen. Caprice had a foal by Fürst Romancier in 2009. She is a quick-witted and expressive mare with lovely movements and was again bred to him for 2010.

She is the maternal half sister to FBW Dejavu, winning the bronze medal at the World Breeding Dressage Championships for five-year-old horses under Nadine Plaster in 2005 and the Federal Championship title of four-year-old riding horses in 2004. A la Bonheur is in-foal to the internationally successful dressage stallion Diamond Hit from which she already had a big moving filly in 2008. We repeated this successful cross for 2010.

Laconia

*2000, height 16.1 ¾ h.h.

Laconia is in-foal to Diamond Hit. She already gave us a state premium and Champion mare, out of the cross with Don Frederico. In combination with Diamond Hit, she had a big moving filly in 2008 and a very typey colt in 2009. Paul Schockemöhle owns a stallion prospect by Diamond Hit out of Laconia that will be prepared for the 2009 Stallion Licensing. This year, Laconia was bred to our Mr. Touchdown.

Desiree

*1994, height 17.0 ½ h.h.

Desiree, also called Daisy, is our eldest broodmare. The expressive and eagerly moving Donnerhall-daughter was the only mare competing in the Finale of the South German Championships in Munich in 2000 under Annette Schlenker. She placed behind Gachino, the current top-class horse of Olympic rider Christilot Hanson-Boylen (Canada) and the Olympic horse Proton, successful for Canada under Cindy Ishoy. Desiree won dressage tests up to M**-level and is trained to compete up to advanced level. She is half sister to Don Awesta. Five offspring successfully competing at medium dressage level under amateur riders descend from this dam line. Desiree is in-foal to our stallion Mr. Touchdown.
