Corvina Noir WSH/Fusionist (Franklin/Ehrentanz I)
We are so excited that our lovely Corvina Noir WSH is in foal to the incredible stallion Fusionist, for a July 2026 foal!
Corvina is an exceptional young mare, who has shown an incredible work ethic, and kind disposition, with 3 beautiful gaits, and a stunning exterior. She is compact and powerful, 16.2h, with very good conformation and type.
She as been genetically tested and is not a carrier of WFFS, and is confirmed black.
She is in foal to Fusionist (Franklin/Ehrentanz I) and we can't wait to see what this combination produces.
In a sign of the times Fusionist was the most popular stallion in Hanover in the 2021 season, with a total of 168 mares. The stallion is indeed an elegant fusion of Dutch and German bloodlines.
Fusionist, was the Top Scoring 4-y-o in the Stallion Sport Test in Verden. The bay scored 8.88 points in total after receiving 8.2 for walk, 9.5 for trot, 8.7 for canter, and 9 for rideability and general impression.
He is by Franklin by Ampère, who is by Rousseau Ferro/ Roemer. Ampère is out of Larivola by Flemmingh out of an Amor / Farn mare – Holsteiner sires who provided the foundation of Dutch dressage breeding. Franklin is out of Warkle M by Ferro, out of Sparkle M by Flemmingh out of a Pion mare.
In 2015 Franklin moved to Denmark where he was a very popular breeding stallion with over 400 coverings in a season. In 2017 his foals sold for top auction prices. Franklin has been a very successful sire of young horses with seven representatives at the 2022 World Young Dressage Horse Championships in Ermelo.
Fusionist’s dam is an exceptional Westfalien mare, Evita, who is by the Ehrentusch son, Ehrentanz I, out of a Florestan mare. I am indebted to my friend and colleague, Thomas Hartwig who informs me that Evita was bred in 2001 by Markus Schulze Finkenbrink. She was placed in some young horse competitions at A and L level. The family Schulze Finkenbrink has bred three generations of this mare line. Edmund Schulze Finkenbrink, the father of Markus, bred Evita’s dam, Farina F (Florestan / Newcastle), and her grand-dam, Nora (Newcastle / Goldlack).
Evita, the dam of Fusionist, is also the dam of the stallion, Fascino by Harmony’s Fiorano by Rousseau, out of a Rotspon mare. In all, Evita has ten registered FN foals.
Franklin was the 2013 KWPN Stallion Licensing champion (then named Fierce S) and the 2013 KWPN Stallion Performance test winner with 86.5 points.
When asked Ingo Pape, what is it that Fusionist gives his offspring?
“Very much strength in the topline, a very solid, strong topline, and very quick light footed hindlegs. Altogether a very correct and compact exterior.
We are so excited to announce the arrival of this stunning filly! She arrived July 7 quite early, but she has not disappointed! This foal should be in the 16-16.2h size range at maturity, and looks like a mini Fusionist! She is a strikingly elegant filly who is sure to turn heads with her modern, typey head, strong topline, and elastic movement.
