High Class, Long Lines, and an Abundance of Movement

We purchased the Special Premium and Elite mare Rhosemary in foal to movement genius Don Frederic from breeder and friend Maurine Swanson, welcoming this high quality colt the following Spring. Dios Mío is very much a carbon copy of his well-known sire with elegant, long lines, highly elastic gaits, and unlimited expression. At his German Oldenburg Verband foal inspection, he was named Premium and designated Top Foal of the day. This is the type of cross that bears repeating, and he is now enjoying success under saddle in the Dressage ring.

Congratulations to Karrin Taylor on the purchase of this super future sporthorse.

In the Pedigree

Sire Don Frederic was Champion of the 2012 Mecklenburger licensing, finished his 30-day stallion test with a Dressage index of 8.79, and has competed to Small Tour level under Holga Finken and Brazilian Paralympian Rodolpho Riskalla. Don Frederic counts among his offspring the stallion test winner and Bundeschampionate qualified D'alessandro as well as Dow Jones HC, Premium Stallion at the Hanoverian licensing in Verden 2015.

The dam Rhosemary was designated an Oldenburg Mare of Distinction based on her performance test and inspection scores and was later named Elite based on her production record. She is sired by the Small Tour successful stallion Rosentanz and out of Elite Stute Fhlora, a daughter of World Young Horse Champion Fürst Heinrich. Fhlora herself is a maternal half-sister to the highly popular breeding stallion, Bundeschampion, and Grand Prix confirmed Callaho's Benicio.
