Johnny appears to have gotten many talents from his heritage, his sire is a Columbian Warmblood - DERROCHE DEL JUNCAL-show name Don Juan, who was unbeatable in the jumping ring, which makes sense as he is a decendant of the legendary VOLTAIRE (Hanoverian). On the Dams side - RU is sired by RABINO who boasts two outstanding Holsteiner jumping pedigrees himself; RAMIRO sire of the world famous RATINA Z, was a successful show jumper himself at the international level. RABINO's dam WONNE I was sired by CALYPSO II who's offspring are famous for their talent in jumping and rideability. RABINO himself won the jumping category at his stallion performance test in 1993 with 140.10, showing his scope. RU's dam is AFTERNOON DELIGHT sired by DONNERBUBE (the standing stallion at D&R RANCHING) whos pedigree boasts the World Famous stallions DONNERHALL and PIK BUBE I.
