Stallions we use
On this page you will find information and links on the stallions we use and also the key stallions which are found in the breeding of our mares.
In 2016 we had foals from the following combinations:
Timolin (Moorlands Totilas x Sion) with Donnali (Donnerhall x Pik Bube)
Timolin: Timolin is an elegant, light-footed stallion of exceptional quality showing outstanding paces with a lot of athleticism as is shown in his jumping ability. Heads turn where ever he walks with him eluding exceptional presence and natural self-carriage. He attended the Sport Horse Breeding of Great Britain Stallion Grading where he was Graded and Champion. Timolin is out of the International Small Tour Dressage horse mare Samira, who was ridden by Jane Gregory and is by the stallion Sion. Timolin's sire Totilas has a phenomenal competition record and is widely known, worldwide!
Vince (Gribaldi x Hofnar) with Nimbus (Cloud 9 x Temple Ramiro)
Vince: Vince's sire Gribaldi KWPN Keur stallion needs no introduction as he became the number one sire in Europe by consistently and reliably producing very high caliber offspring. Progeny from this famous bloodline include Edward Gal's world record holding Totilas, Sisther de Jeu, Hoftänzer, Silvermoon and Anky van Grunsven's Grand Prix winner Painted Black. Vince has had many successes as a young horse including winning or being placed in all the BD Young Horse Series tests (Shearwater, Rhinegold & Nuumed) qualifying him for the National BD Young Horse Championships. Vince received consistently impressive scores including 9 for his walk and high 8's for his trot and canter. Judges described him as “a very athletic loose moving horse, with three excellent gaits and much presence”.
Cyden Bodyguard Moorland (Gribaldi x Negro) with Movie Starlet (T Movistar x )
Cyden Bodyguard Moorland:Bodyguard is a KWPN Approved black stallion by Gribaldi x Negro x Cocktail. Bodyguard combines impeccable bloodlines with fabulous trainability and therefore competition results. An ideal pedigree for a stallion that will both perform and pass that ability on to his progeny, closely related to both the Gold and Silver individual dressage medallists at the London Olympics. The KWPN has already awarded him the very impressive breeding value of 164 for dressage.In 2015 he had his first KWPN Approved son, Guardian S which for a stallion himself still young is a huge success story for Bodyguard, and another of his offspring, Gladstone won the Shearwater 2015 championships as a 4 year old. Bodyguard has the most amazing temperament and trainable attitude that he appears to be passing onto all his progeny. Bodyguard is currently competing at International Level ST, gaining 73% at PSG and 71% at Inter 1 level in the UK, having been reserve champion at Advanced medium level at the Home Internationals in 2014, and PSG in 2015.
Larkshill Debonair (De Niro x Show Star) with Weltstar Ambrini (Broadstone West Country x Dutch Gold)
Larkshill Debonair: Debonair, who carries the very important De Niro bloodline combined with very strong Westfalian breeding on the damline, has excellent type as a balanced and elastic model with three good gaits and very good cadence. His canter is particularly fine and he shows all the benefit of his balanced and harmonious conformation. During his Oldenburg approval, the judges commented that this was a top Sports Horse that they would love to have back over in Germany. 2014 was his first great year where he topped not only the BEF Stallion Rankings for Dressage progeny, but also took the coveted Badminton Young Horse Championships as one of the very few four year olds to do so. In addition, having won the strongly contested Shearwater International Qualifier at Hartpury CDI, he went on to finish third at the National Finals.

Stallions for 2012
In 2012 we are hoping to have foals from the following stallions:
Don Schufro - A stallion that really needs no introduction who combines the power and looseness of his sire Donnerhall with the amazing trot and hind leg action of his damsire Pik Bube. The quality of his offspring is unquestionable as amongst many other breeding accolades he is the sire of more than 20 licensed sons including Don Romantic and Diamond Hit, is the sire of UNO Donna Unique - the 6 year old 2010 World Champion as well as being the sire of several candidates for London 2012. In his own competitive career he too was an Olympian, collecting team bronze at the Beijing Olympics whilst being the undisputed Danish Dressage Champion as well as many Grand Prix and World Cup qualifier wins.
Parco - The legendary grey jumping stallion, who carries the magic blood of his sire Darco as well as Attack Z and Alme through his damline. Parco is not only proven in his own right with results such as 4th at the Athens Olympics and top placings at World Cups, WEGs and European Championships but he also has over 50 offspring competing internationally from a limited breeding career. Parco passes on his outstanding temperament and trainability to his offspring as well as stamping his bone, scope and look making him an ideal stallion for both competitive and leisure riders. He was recently bought by, and is now standing with, The Stallion Company

In 2010 we had foals from the following stallions:
Don Wilhelm, chestnut colt by Don Romantic
Remus Miss Kallista, dark bay filly by Medoc
Don Romantic – Danish Warmblood Stallion of the Year 2010. He was Dansk Varmblod Foal of the Year in 1999 and sold at auction for a record price. At age 3 years, he became champion colt in Herning, winning the performance test with 10s for canter and rideability. The following year he became undisputed licensing champion and decorated with the much-coveted and rarely awarded gold medal. He went on to win the Danish dressage championships as a four-year-old before a severe injury put an end to his career.

His sire, MAAT 1 has produced over 160 well known dressage horses. As a Hannoverian Verband graded stallion, Medoc was automatically accepted into the British Hanoverian Horse Society stud book upon arrival in the UK.
