Werona
AC
Wolkentanz II x Buenos Aires x Weinstock
2002 Hannoverian-registered
filly bred in Denmark by Anders and Charlotte Groenborg from
AC Breeding. Wolkentanz II was Reserve Champion of his stallion
approvals and was a Bundeschampionate finalist twice with
his rider and owner Johannes Westendarp. He has also proven
himself as one of the leading sires in the German index, in
spite of his young age. His offspring provide outstanding
movement combined with high rideability and excellent confirmation.
Werona combines the famous “W” line of Wolkentanz
II with the Bolero line, who is the sire of Buenos Aires and
also the sire of Beatriz Ferrer Salat’s Olympic mount
Beauvalais and many other Grand Prix horses. This cross has
produced numerous outstanding prospects, and we are confident
Werona will develop to be another excellent example. She was
selected as a foal for the Elite Foal Auction at Verden. Werona
will remain in Denmark at the Groenborg’s farm until
she is entered in a training program in Germany.
Royal
Affair
Royal Diamond x Donnerhall x Prince Thatch XX
2002 Hannoverian stallion by Gestuet Vorwerk’s
upcoming star Royal Diamond, full brother of Rohdiamant. Royal
Diamond has already won numerous Prix St. Georges and several
Grand Prix classes under Lisa Wilcox, and produced a large
number of State Premium mares and approved stallions for different
European studbooks. Royal Affair’s dam needs little
introduction with regards to her impeccable breeding, with
two of the most influential sires of German breeding: Donnerhall
and Prince Thatch XX. True to this outstanding bloodlines
Royal Affair is a substantial dark bay colt that already measures
1.68m as a two year-old and has the same type of breathtaking
movement and presence as his sire. He was bred in Germany,
purchased as a foal by Hans-Heinrich Bruening, and will remain
at Hof Bruening until he is three years old, at which time
he will enter a training program in that country.
Sandritano
Van Hof Olympia
Sandro Hit x Silvano N x Calypso III
Sandritano
was the top-priced foal at the 2004 Limburg auction. A year
prior to that, his full sister Sandritana was also the top-priced
foal at the same auction. Sandritano represents the combination
of one of the most successful sires of all times, Sandro Hit,
combined with the outstanding performance blood of the talented
Olympic stallion Silvano N. Sandritano is a direct descendant
of Inatana Las Marismas, out of her granddaughter P.Siltana
Van Hof Olympia, who was herself Benelux Champion foal. This
outstanding foal comes from the excellent breeding program
of Henk and Iris Poettgens in Holland.
Rubitana
Van Hof Olympia
Rubin Royal x Calypso III x Latano
Rubitana is
from the same outstanding mother lines as Sandritano, both
direct descendants of Las Marismas top mare Inatana. She was
also bred at Hof Olympia in Holland by Henk and Iris Poettgens.
In Rubitana’s case, she is by Inatana’s daughter
La Quitana, who as a foal was Benelux champion and also European
Reserve Champion. Her sire is Rubin Royal, a stallion that
needs very little introduction, since he has produced numerous
approved colts and premium mares in Germany. He is characterized
for providing superior conformation and outstanding gaits
in all his offspring, which is very much the case with Rubitana.
