The elegant and impressive Don Frederico became
Champion of the 1999 Hanoverian Stallion Licensing.
This "eye-catcher" completed his stallion
performance test as runner-up with the amazing
score of 151.67 points in the dressage section.
He has outstanding gaits, scoring a 9.0 for his
walk, 9.33 for his trot and a 9.33 for his canter.
He also scored a 9.5 for rideability and 9's for
his disposition and willingness to perform.
Don Frederico possesses excellent mental qualities
and rideability, and combined with his very good
basic gaits impresses all dressage riders. He
is a member of the Celle black horse dressage
quadrille.
In 2005, Don Frederico was rated by the German
Equestrian Federation as the second most valuable
sport horse breeding stallion, based on his Breeding
Value Index of 174 points, with an assurance of
89% heritability.
His sire is the dressage legend Donnerhall, who
many believe has single handedly reshaped the
dressage breeding world. Donnerhall has 58 licensed
sons and 63 State Premium Mares, foal and mare
show winners, Federal Championship winners, Stallion
Performance test winners, top priced auction horses
and he and his successful sons are regularly top
of the FN breeding values. In 1986 Donnerhall
was the DLG champion in Hanover. In 1994 after
many wins in Grand Prix, Grand Prix special and
freestyle classes at international level he became
the German champion in Manheim, team World Champion
and individual bronze medal winner in The Hauge.
In 1997 he won the team gold medal and individual
bronze at the European Dressage Championships
in Verden. In 1998 he was once again included
in the German team who won team gold in Rome where
Donnerhall placed fourth in the individual. Donnerhall
won the World Cup European League as well as being
named the Oldenburg dressage stallion of the year
in 1997 and 1998.
Don Frederico's offspring are extremely popular,
and are demonstrating dressage excellence. For
example in 2005 his progeny Dantonisius and Dark
Carlotta were Champion and Reserve Champion Four
Year Old Riding horses (mares and geldings) at
the Bundeschampionat.
