SOLD Congratulations to Rose and Family of CA!!!
NEW pictures taken 9/14/10 at 9 weeks old. By Freestyle (Florestan) out of a Rubinstein I/Furioso II mare. He is a substantial colt with correct conformation and fantastic gaits. A very powerful mover! Watch the slow motion video of his trot.

His dam, GRAZIELLA, has already produced 4 gorgeous stylish foals. This colt is no exception. Graziella was imported from Germany in 2003 and has impeccable and highly sought after bloodlines. She was sired by the legendary “Stallion of the Century” RUBINSTEIN I and is out of the States Premium (SPS) Mare Glaeddis (FURIOSO II). Rubinstein is known for passing on his wonderful temperament and movement. Offspring by him are frequently sought after by professionals and amateur riders alike for their willingness to please, and Graziella is no exception. She has proved herself and shown successfully in hand & under saddle, including a first place at Dressage at Devon. She has produced Premium, Site Inspection Champion, Elite Auction Quality and Stallion prospect foals.

His sire, Freestyle, is by the highly popular Florestan I, and is a beautiful 17hh stallion with an athletic body, very well applied hindquarters and a super character. At the 100 day Performance test at Prussendorf, he was awarded a perfect 10 for character and a 9 for temperament. In dressage, he proved to rank amongst the best of his year and received a 9.33 for ridebility. His total score was 132.55 points and he was the overall winner of his performance test. He continues to be highly successful in the show ring at 4th level. His progeny are also highly successful in the dressage ring.

Recently, for the Top 200 Dressage Stallion Breeding Value Index, Freestyle was rated with an index of 151! His ranking places him along side Don Frederico, Dressage Royal, Furst Heinrich, Waterford, Weltmeyer and Wie Weltmeyer. This group of stallions have the 17th highest dressage index and are 35-41 on the list. This makes Freestyle and Waterford the highest Dressage index stallions in North America, and Freestyle the highest stallion in Canada. This is an outstanding accomplishment for Freestyle as he only stood two breeding season in Europe!!

With such a strong background in this colt’s pedigree, he will be destined for the big ring. Asking $12,000!
