Bonito has it all!
A fantastic and easy going disposition, three super gaits that are clear and powerful, beautiful black color with subtle bits of chrome. Anyone that meets him loves him. He is snuggly smart and engaging. He is an asset to any rider, amateur or professional.

Bonito is by Bon Coeur who himself has excellent readability and produces very ridable offspring . Bon Coeur” – literally translated “good heart”! With his heart in the right place, this extremely talented black horse can easily meet, perhaps even surpass, the expectations placed under the saddle. Due to his seemingly unlimited elasticity, constantly powerful and at the same time light hooved, this young stallion knows how to present himself in the best light. Thus, our “Benni” passed the high-caliber field in his 30-day test in Schlieckau and won the dressage test with a final score of 9.1 and a remarkable breeding value of 150 index points. The dream score 10.0 was shown several times. That this grading was no coincidence, he could then put on the discarded sports exams, here his performance was again rewarded with highest marks over 9.0. After multiple victories in riding horse tests followed the title of Hanoverian champion. As a double vice-championship winner, Bon Coeur managed to win his first dressage test class L straight away last year. So he was qualified for the Bundeschampionat in Warendorf with his parade 9.0 for the third year in a row. After competing successfully at Grand Prix level in 2013 he sold to Sweden’s Tinne Vilhelmson Silvfén as her new Olympic hopeful. Here the success story continues and meanwhile he has a breeding value of 153 points which puts him in the realms of the absolute elite. In this bloodline we also find Sandro Hit who through his own sporting achievements ( Bundeschampion and world champion 6yr dressage horses) and those of his offspring (numerous Bundeschampions, dressage world champion, several grading champions, other progeny with world cup and Grand Prix success). In the third generation comes old proven Hanoveranian blood from Carismo (winner of class in his time) and his sire Calypso II, whose Dam line includes the Lusitano, has already contributed multiple internationally successful progeny in both jumping and dressage. Noteworthy is that the combining of Sandro Hit with Calypso II has produced many highly successful dressage horses. Bon Coeur can largely credit his ability to carry and naturally tucked under active hind legs to his valuable jumping genes.

Bonito's Dam, Freya, is a GOV Verbands Special Premium mare, bred by myself. Before having her second and third foals, Freya was schooling 3rd level. She is a forward thinking and comfortable mare. She is by Furstenball, another stallion known for his ridablity.
