Resounding heredity power

From Feinrich's first crop of foals, his first sons were licensed in 2019, including a premium stallion in Westphalia. His offspring are very promising under saddle and clearly resemble their sire with their wonderful type and big paces.

In 2015, Feinrich was the glowing winner of his licensing and completed his stallion performance test with flying colours. In 2018, he won young horse dressage competitions in his age group and qualified for the German championships with Isabel Freese.

Feinrich’s breeding is also very special: Through his sire Fürst Heinrich, the paternal line of the great Furioso II is combined with that of probably the most important mare in modern Oldenburg breeding history, El.St. Gesina.

His sire Fürst Heinrich was Champion Stallion in 2001, winner of the main premium in 2002, World Champion of five-year-old dressage horses in 2003, and has produced 53 licensed stallions, including Fürstenball, licensing and main premium champion, German champion and elite sire as well as Fürst Romancier, main premium winner.

His dam El.St. Gesina also produced Feinrich’s full sister, Fürstin Gesine, Oldenburg Champion Mare and placed third at the regional championships, who produced the licensed stallion Visino PS (by Vitalis). Five other sons of Gesina were approved: For Romance I OLD, Oldenburg Champion Stallion, Main Premium winner, Burg-Cup finalist, VTV dressage stallion and successful in Grand Prix, his full brother and premium stallion For Romance II, who also stands at our stud, Fürst Donnerhall PS (all by Fürst Romancier), Don Romance PS (by Dante Weltino), who was Reserve Champion of his stallion performance test and third at the Regional Championships and Desino (by De Niro), who qualified for the German Championships. Gesina also produced Fasine OLD (by Fürst Romancier), Oldenburg Champion Mare, German Champion, P.S.I. price record holder and successful at S level. Fasine OLD is the dam of Fasino (by Foundation), who also stands at our stud. Fasine’s daughter A la Fasine (by Apache) produced the licensed stallion HP Valentino (by Vitalis).
Gesina’s daughter, Mount St. John Best of All, by Bordeaux, became British Dressage National Champion and was placed up to Small Tour level and produced Best of Mount St. John OLD (by Fürst Romancier) who was Vice Regional Champion and fifth of the German National Championships.

Thanks to his offspring placed in Grand Prix competitions like Sai Baba Plus/Boaventure Freire/POR, Semper Fidelis/Heather Blitz/USA and Syriana/Mary Hanna/AUS, his dam sire Sir Donnerhall I is placed amongst the top 20 of the WBFSH ranking list of the world's best dressage sires. Himself second Reserve champion of his licensing, Regional Champion, record winner of his stallion performance test, Vice World Champion of young dressage horses, German Champion and winner of the main premium, he can refer to almost 100 licensed sons. He has also produced numerous championship-successful offspring, including the double World Champion dressage horse Sa Coeur and the legendary German Championship quartet Sir Heinrich OLD, Cindy OLD, Candy OLD and Caty OLD from the Wendeln Stud. 

Grand-dam Gesine also produced the 1st Reserve Champion Vivaldi’s Schufro (by Vivaldi).

In the third generation is Don Schufro, Danish Champion and Team bronze winner at the Olympic Games in Hong Kong/HKG in 2008 with Andreas Helgstrand.

In the previous generations, Sandro, Gepard, Pik Bube II, Waldhorn and More Magic xx perfectly complete the pedigree.

Feinrich goes back to the dam line of Voltaire. 

High-quality sire and a very worthy representative of his dam line!
