Donarweiss’s sire De
Niro was Reserve Champion of his Performance Test with a score of 141.93. De
Niro had a wonderful sport career with over 24 wins at S level and has sired 108
States Premium Mares, 25
approved sons, and
international-quality Grand Prix horses to his credit. Grandsire Donnerhall was
for many years the leading dressage stallion in the world and won medals at the
European Championships and World Equestrian Games. Donarweiss’s dam sire,
Hohenstein, was Reserve Champion of his Stallion Performance Test. Further back
in Donarweiss’s pedigree we find Archipel, a son of the 1994 Hanoverian Stallion
of the Year Argentan, brings additional scope and jumping ability.
Intelligent, athletic, and charismatic describe Donarweiss and his offspring.
For the past three years Donarweiss has sired foals that have tied for
high-score in the nation with ISR/OldenburgNA. His offspring are consistently
winning at Breed Shows around the nation and the filly Dior CCF is the 2011 USDF
Horse of the Year for weanling fillies.Donarweiss’s oldest offspring are now
proving themselves under saddle at both
dressage and hunter competitions and we look forward to watching them join their
sire in the competition arena in the coming years.
