WINSOME WINNER

Winsome Winner is a Registered 16.1 hh 1996 3/4 Hanoverian/1/4 Oldenburg mare by Waldkoenig (Wenzel/Pik Koenig) out of a mare by Wallenstein (Winchester/Pik Koenig). Very elegant with lots of movement.

Winnie was bred to Hugh Graham’s stallion (KingRidge Farm), Double Diamond, in 2007 and has been confirmed in foal. Double Diamond was the Champion Five Year Old in Canada in 2004 in the Young Horse Development Series including winning the Final at the Royal Winter Fair Horse Show in Toronto. He has continued maintaining a very impressive and consistent performance record (click this Link http://www.kingridge.com/more_info_horse.jsp?type=StallionSvc&horse_id=131 for more information on this outstanding stallion.

Double Diamond was 3rd in his first ever Grand Prix, the $30,000 Carolina Company Grand Prix at the Aiken Spring Classic Finale in Spring 2007.

Double Diamond is by Nabab de Reve, one of the best sons of the top ranked French sire Quidam de Revel. Nabab de Reve, ridden by Philippe LeJeune, was a member of Belgium’s winning Nations Cup team at the prestigious Aachen CSIO in 2001.

Double Diamond’s dam, Black Diamond (born Quitone) by Chin Chin, won the six-year-old championship in Belgium.

We are thrilled to be bringing the Chin Chin, Darco, Quidam de Revel and Jalisco B bloodlines into our future sales line up for our customers. See Double Diamond in action below.

MYSTIC BELLS

Mystic Bells is a 16.3 hh 1994 Canadian Warmblood Registered Thoroughbred Royal Chocolate mare with Secretariat, Nasrullah and Nearco in her background. She is also registered with the American and Canadian Jockey Clubs although she was never trained for racing.

In 2006, we bred Mystic Bells to Landkönig, an elite and very impressive 16.3 h Hanoverian stallion. Landkönig completed his 100 day test at Adelheidsdorf as a 3 yr old and was 7th out of 50 - 118.10 points overall with a 9.5! for stadium jumping, 8's for willingness to work, character, temperament and the walk. Overall balanced on his jumping and ridability scores. The Hannoveraner Jahrbuch Hengste 2005 lists Landkönig with a jumping breeding value of 132 putting him ahead of Ritual, Drosselklang, Espri, Escudo II, Grosso Z and many other top German Grand Prix producers! Landkönig is in fact the highest rated jumper listed who is standing in the US.

Landkönig has produced a licensed Hanoverian stallion son from his first foal crop and in 2002 broke the record for producing the highest selling jumper ever in the history of the Hanoverian Elite auctions in Germany. Lantinus, a 4 yr old gelding sold for Euro 215,000, also setting the record price for the Hanoverian auction year - something never done by a jumper!
