Olympic bloodlines - Ready to show and win at 2nd level dressage or be a lovely hunter.

Royal Rhapsody is from a GP winning sire and grandsire, and Olympic grand- and great-grandsires. Royal Rhapsody was awarded premium status at her ISR/Oldenburg inspection and won the Premium Filly Championship. Consistently winning at rated dressage shows, she could also qualify quickly as a hunter.
Royal Rhapsody is quiet to handle and can be ridden by anyone. She's been ridden by a beginner rider, both in the arena and outside. A Powerful mover but easy to sit in all gaits, she has a huge 9 walk but is still very suitable and safe for an amateur rider. Training second/third levels, she has started some lovely lateral work, has strong balance in counter canter, and has a confirmed flying change. She has won six out of her eight classes (2nd and 3rd in the other two), has a median score of over 68% at training level, and is more than ready to show her abilities at higher levels.
As a hunter, she is very honest and has perfect form and rhythm. She easily makes the 12’ stride without feeling hurried or worried.
Clean, full set of 2019 x-rays.
Her sire, Rubin Royal, Supreme Champion of Oldenburg in 2001 (Rohdiamont - Grundstein II - Akzent), has 12th place in the German-wide Breeding Evaluation List for dressage horses. His sire is the champion stallion Rohdiamant. His dam's sire, Grundstein II, has been consistently producing internationally successful dressage and jumping horses in the Worldclass-Niveau. The high rideability component of these horses comes from the third generation father, Akzent II. Rubin Royal's offspring are exceptionally elegant with fascinating movement and character. He has five approved sons in various breeding areas such as Oldenburg, Hannover, and Westfalen.
Her dam, Paradel, is a premium Oldenburg mare by Parabol. Paradel won the Midwest ISR/Oldenburg Filly Championship, is still the top scoring Parabol in hunter breeding AHSA Horse of the Year awards, placed second numerous times at DAD with perfect 10 scores, and was twice USDF HOY. Paradel has produced several of the highest-scoring approved stallions in the US and eight premium foals many of which have gone on to be AHSA, IHJA, USCTA, USDF, and USEF Horse of the Year winners.
