Westphalian Champion Stallion and 1.2-million-euro stallion market sensation
V-Power more than lived up to his name. The "Strahlemann", as breeding director Thomas Münch dubbed our champion stallion and stallion market topper at his 2022 licensing in Münster-Handorf, which was celebrated with standing ovations, also confirmed his boundless basic quality under saddle. At his stallion performance test in Denmark, he received a straight "very good" (9.0) for his rideability and canter ability. His trot and capacity were rated 8.5. With a total of 831.0 points, he ranked fourth in a very strong field. V-Power had previously impressed in his short test in Münster-Handorf under the saddle of Maxi Kira von Platen.
We are now eagerly awaiting his first foals.
The sire, Viva Gold, himself a grandson of the Olympic Champion, European Champion and multiple World Cup winner Weihegold OLD under Isabell Werth and HLP winner, Oldenburg Vice State Champion and two-time Bundeschampionat qualifier, produced more than 15 licensed sons from his first crop, above all our exceptional premium stallion and HLP winner Viva Vegas. The DSP Championships bronze medal winner Vanguardia under Mareike Mimberg-Hess and the Westphalian Championships fourth-placed Viva Fantastica under Daniela Graé also came to the fore.
The dam, Verb.Pr.St. Finess, also produced the licensed stallion Belmore (by Belissimo M), who achieved international Grand Prix success under Joanna Robinson/FIN. The Finess daughter Rocket Girl (by Rock Forever I) is the dam of the licensed stallion Vitz Gerald PS (by Valverde), who placed in tests for young dressage horses, and Toto Django (by Totilas), who was successful in tests for young dressage horses at medium level under Anna-Christina Abbelen.
The dam's sire is our Grand Prix-successful Hanoverian stallion of the year 2021, Fidertanz, whose licensed son Franziskus FRH/Ingrid Klimke was part of the German World Championship bronze medal team in Herning/DEN in 2022. More than 60 other sons were licensed, including Fiderdance/Simone Pearce/AUS, who also took part in the World Championships. Fiderdance is also the dam's sire of the Grand Prix mares Four Seasons FRH/Alexa Westendarp and Bonita Springs/Kira Wulferding.
The granddam, St.Pr.St. Shakira, is a half-sister to the 1.35 meter show jumper Dynastie (by Diarado).
The third sire, Show Star, was a premium stallion, riding horse national champion, second in the Nuremberg Burg Cup as well as team gold winner and individual fourth at the 2010 European Youth Championships in Kronberg.
The line also includes the licensed stallions Abegglen FH NRW (by Ampère; Grand Prix)/Victoria Max-Theurer/AUT, Montreal I (by Mohn xx), Parademeister I and II (both by Parademarsch I) as well as the sport horses Fling (by. Florestan I; Grand Prix), Flamenco (by Florestan I; Grand Prix), Leonardo wie Caprio (by Laurentianer; Inter I), Retina (by Regazzoni; 1.30 m jumping) and Ronjador (by Rock Forever I; Inter I).
