VIVINO x Fürsten-Look x Sir Donnerhall I x Rosenkavalier

About VIVINO - The €2.1million top-seller of the 2018 Hanoverian licensing, Vivino was the first horse purchased to cement the Schockemohle/Helgstrand partnership. He is a beautiful, tall stallion with outstanding conformation, presence, power and a superior modern type.

Sire - Vivaldi was proclaimed 'Preferent' by the KWPN in 2018, and is one of the most sought-after sires in modern breeding. His son Dream Boy, burst onto the international grand prix scene in 2018 with Hans Peter Minderhoud (who also competed Vivaldi), scoring +73% on his international debut before defeating a field of established horses to win the Olympia grand prix. He followed this up with victory in only his second grand prix freestyle in Mechelen on a score of over 83%. Blue Hors Veneziano, another Vivaldi son to impress in 2018, won the Louisdor Cup for developing grand prix horses in December, on a score of over 75%.

Vivaldi competed up to Inter I, scoring over 72% internationally at PSG. He was reserve champion of his stallion performance test and in 2007 he won the Pavo-Cup of five-year-old dressage horses. In 2008 and 2009, he added triumphs in the KNHS/KWPN stallion series achieving marks of 10.0 for his trot. Vivaldi is trained to advanced level. As a producer, he is now recognised globally; so far, in Germany alone 19 of his sons have now been licensed, amongst them several highly-priced premium stallions. Vivaldi enriched the World Championships of young dressage horses in Verden in 2014 and also in 2015, where his son Eye Catcher won the bronze medal of the six-year-olds. In 2015 and 2016, his son Fenix won the five and six-year-old Pavo-Cup in the Netherlands. The Pavo-Cup of six-year-olds was a real festival for Vivaldi in 2016, when behind Fenix, in second and third place, were First Apple and Fantastique, both Vivaldi progeny. Vivaldi's other sons include Desperado, Le Vivaldi, Geniaal, and Vitalis, who has dominated the German breeding scene in recent years.

Damline - Dancier was champion of the 2004 Hanoverian Stallion Licensing in Verden and the 2005 stallion performance test in Adelheidsdorf; after his performance test, he sold for €330,000 to the state stud at Celle. As a young horse, he was reserve champion of the Hanoverian Young Horse Championships, and was third in the four-year-old Bundeschampionat final. In 2008 he was a finalist in the six-year-old Bundeschampionat, and is now successful at advanced level. Dancier's sire De Niro is top of the WBFSH Sire Rankings for 2016, and has enjoyed a phenomenal career in both sport and breeding; he has produced countless grand prix horses, winning medals at the highest levels. The De Niro/Weltmeyer cross, in the second generation of the pedigree, has also produced Delgado (individual bronze, Aachen 2015), Super Nova II (team silver, Rio 2016), grand prix stallion Danone I and his full brothers Danone II (now deceased) and Der Designer, both winners at Inter II. Dancier's damsire Lancier is by the great Thoroughbred stallion Lauries Crusador, who won his own performance test with the highest marks in every section, including a 9 for rideability.

Vivino is a first foal for his dam Desiree, while her half-brothers by De Niro, Del Gado and Dany White, a licensed stallion and successful small tour horse, respectively, and her full-sister has produced the licensed Livaldon son, Livaldi.

FEINRICH x Showmaker x Hamlet x Hemmingway 

About FEINRICH -  Feinrich is a modern sire from an incredibly strong damline. He has an exceptionally good temperament and exquisite paces. He is a beautiful athlete who is an exciting prospect for both sport and breeding.

Performance - With superior ease, Feinrich dominated his high-quality licensing in November 2015 in Redefin. In his 2016 performance test, Feinrich passed with flying colours and finished in the top group.

Sire - Fürst Heinrich was a World Young Horse Champion and Vice-Bundeschampion, as well as champion of his performance test, premium stallion at his licensing, and Oldenburg Hauptprämie winner; an impeccable and unequalled record. His breeding and sport career was tragically cut short due to his death as a 7-year-old. In that short time, Fürst Heinrich had an overwhelmingly positive impact, producing almost 50 licensed stallions and 100 state premium mares. His daughter Woodlander Farouche was a double World Young Horse Champion and is unbeaten in her 11 starts at international small tour level. His most successful stallion son, Fürstenball, was licensing and performance champion, and is the sire of more than 40 licensed sons.

Damline - The dam sire Sir Donnerhall I was reserve champion of his licensing, regional champion, record winner of his stallion performance test, Vice World Champion, Bundeschampion, and winner of the dressage Hauptprämie. He has over 60 licensed sons and numerous auction highlights to his credit including several grand prix horses and the double World Champion, Sa Couer, who sold for €2.3million as a young horse. The dam, elite mare Gesina, is also the dam of licensed stallions For Romance I and II, the elite mare Fasine, champion of the Elite mare show, Bundeschampion and PSI price highlight, plus British national novice champion Best Of All. In the third generation is Don Schufro, Danish Champion and team bronze medal-winner at the Olympic Games in Hong Kong in 2008 with Andreas Helgstrand, as well as sire to numerous champions including German star Weihegold OLD.

Progeny - Feinrich's first foals arrived in 2017, and so far they are outstanding; beautiful models of a very modern type, with lovely frames and super temperaments.
