GELDING - DARK BROWN - BORN APRIL 23, 2011 - 163/164 CM (16.2 HH)

Nobel and very well-moving gelding by the Celle State Stud Stallion DANNEBROG (by Don Schufro) out of our State Premium Mare WOITANA (sister to Fidermark's dam) by Weltmeyer. DMJ DA VINCI is a fantastic horse with an incredibly lovely temperament and a unique personality. Rarely we have seen such a well-balanced horse like him, who is so trusting and welcoming to people and the new things he meets on his way.

The sire, DANNEBROG (also out of our breeding), is sired by the Grand Prix stallion Blue Hors Don Schufro out of our State Premium Mare BYZANTINA by Brentano II x Arogno. With 154.93 points Don Schufro (who has been at the top of the German Dressage Stallion rankings from 2001-2008!) won the ride ability index at his stallion performance test in Adelheidsdorf. In the meantime, he has won World Cup Qualifiers and earned more than 30 victories and placements in Grand Prix-classes at important tournaments like for example in Aachen, Bremen, Wiesbaden, Lingen, Neumünster and Nörten-Hardenberg. His fantastic balance sheet was completed in 2008 with the victory at the Danish Championships as well as by the team bronzemedal and the 11th place in the individual competition at the Olympic Games in Hong Kong. Read more about DANNEBROG and his dam line here...

The dam, State Premium Mare WOITANA II by Weltmeyer, is out of the highly-awarded State Premium Mare ELFE (3x first-class prize, Champion mare of the Göttingen Mare Show and highly-placed at the Rathje-Niebuhr-Show in Verden). SPS WOITANA II is the sister of WAKONDA, the dam of the famous breeding stallion FIDERMARK by Florestan I and of PALEGRO by Power, another licensed son who represented the Westphalian Society at the Federal Championships of German Jumpers.

Her full sister WOITANA I supplied the approved stallion DARDANOS N by Davignon I and the excellently moving three-year-old dressage mare SURPRISE DU JOUR by Sandro Hit. At the PSI-Auction in December 2001, SURPRISE DU JOUR was sold at the sensational amount of Euro 530.000,00.
