| Sire: | GODEWIND is a grey Hanoverian stallion who is licensed with 3 breed associations. He received |
| the highest score of 121+ at his test. Godewind truly epitomizes the equine athlete - great jumping |
| ability plus excellent movement. As a sire, he has passed these desirable traits on to his offspring. In |
| Germany, GODEWIND'S progeny are already proving themselves in the Grand Prix ring. He comes |
| from the most famous of jumping lines - GOTTHARD, whose descendants have set the standard for |
| jumping ability, technique, and willingness on many international teams. His offspring have won over |
| $120,000,000. |
| Dam: | A PRINCESS DAUGHTER is by the important stallion, ABRUPT. ABRUPT produced many |
| competition horses including successful jumpers like ARABELLE (Junior Jumping Champion at |
| Wonderland in 1984, member of the Gold Medal Young Riders Team from Quebec in the same year) |
| and TOUCHSDOWN (three time Canadian Three Day Event Champion and Olympic short list |
| horse, ridden by Bill Ulmer). ABRUPT was a direct son of the Hanoverian line founding Trakehner |
| stallion, ABGLANZ, who’s impact on warmblood breeding and Hanoverians in particular is |
| immeasurable. ABGLANZ blood can be felt through his sons such as ABSATZ, through to |
| ARGENTAN and ARAMIS, as well Olympic horse SLIBOWITZ and even to WELTMEYER and |
| the young prodigy ESCUDO I. |
| Notes: | This well ridden gelding has three very good gaits and an exceptionally solid build and a constitution |
| that guarantees many years of maintenance free use. GRAF is the perfect partner for the person |
| wanting to do a bit of everything; he has competed in dressage, jumper, cross-country, even western |
| reining, whenever there was a spare spot in the trailer so mom could bring a horse along, too! He has |
| countless hours of mountain trail riding. GRAF has the potential to go past medium level in dressage |
| and his powerful jump would be competitive far above the basic levels where his former owner was |
| comfortable. If soundness is important to you, take a close look at this horse; you'll like what you see. |
