We are extremely excited to offer “Henry”, a stunning bay colt, as a serious upper-level dual bred dressage and eventing prospect, who should lovely enough style to excel in the hunter ring. Henry’s focused disposition would also make him well suited for an amateur to develop in a program. He is a large, leggy colt who already shows significant presence, and high caliber movement. His active hind leg and extremely uphill canter are noteworthy, as is the way he already has a lovely walk for such a young foal. His demeanor is already calm, focused and very people oriented.

Henry received high compliments from judges at the USDF Sport Horse Judging symposium from both the judges instructing, including “Super colt” and “Potential stallion prospect”. At his Hanoverian inspection, the judge gushed about the correctness of his conformation, especially his lovely front end. Henry already stands quietly in his stall for braiding, loads very well, has been introduced to clippers, and his doing great for the farrier.

We hope to see baby H follow in maternal half-sister, Diamond Affair LSE’s footsteps in competing in hand or through the Young Horse Show series, where she has won both her yearling class, and her two-year old liberty class, with excellent comments from the judges. She was also the highest scoring Hanoverian both years, in addition, she showed excellent form over fences, earning 8’s for Bascule and Willingness.

Sire, E.H. Herzensdieb, is an Elite stallion who was licensing Champion and crowd favorite at the 2005 Trakehner licensing in Neumünster. He was Reserve Champion stallion performance test winning the cross country with 9.5 and received a 9.0 for trot, 9.5 for canter, and 8.5 for walk. Herzensdieb has proven himself as a sire producing offspring successful through GP in dressage and UL eventing.

He was honored with the prestigious Elite Hengst title (E.H.) in 2013 by the Trakehner Verband, and he is currently one of the few E.H. awarded stallions that are actively breeding in the United States.
