Devon WSH
Eclipse by Ehrentusch has delivered a gorgeous colt by the legendary Don Frederico! This colt is impeccably put together with a strong top line, beautiful face, and impressive elastic uphill movement. Devon has a beautiful expression and confident personality. He is well handled, leads, ties and stands quietly for grooming. This colt is an upper level dressage prospect with his pedigree stacked with top dressage horses.
Don Frederico was named Hanoverian stallion of the year for 2012 by the German Verband. Breeding manager Dr. Werner Schade summarized: “The award ‘Stallion of the Year’ is meant to honor stallions whose progeny are successful in international top sport. This is exactly the most impressive characteristic of Don Frederico. He scores with willingness to perform, power and ambition, and he passes on these important positive traits to his sons and daughters. He set standards.”
Current shooting stars made by Don Frederico are the silver medalist of the Olympic Games in London, Diva Royal with Dorothee Schneider, and Isabell Werth’s Grand Prix-horse Don Johnson FRH. 25 of his sons were licensed for breeding by the Hannoveraner Verband, among them the current bronze medalist of five-year-old dressage horses at the Bundeschampionate in Warendorf, Don Darius, and the World Champion of young dressage horses in 2008, Dramatic. More than 2,500 progeny are registered with the Hannoveraner Verband, among them 178 state premium mares and state premium candidates, 325 Hanoverians were sold at auctions.
