Sire: |
OLYMPIC FERRO is an impressive black Dutch Warmblood Stallion. A well known competitor in |
| the International dressage world with his rider Coby vanBaalen. Placing 6th at the WEG and named |
| Rabobank Horse of the Year in 1998. At the National Stallion Inspection in 1990, FERRO was the |
| prompt favorite of the public and, with a series of brilliant marks, champion of his age group. His sire, |
| ULFT, known as an all-round sport horse, has produced great sport horses. ULFT has 5 approved |
| sons in Europe. The Dam's sire, FARN, is producer of the famous NIMMERDOR - another stallion |
| that placed high on the jumping index. OLYMPIC FERRO is now the leading KWPN dressage |
| horse producer of all time. |
|
Dam: |
FRUHLINGSDRALLE, aka FIDELE, is a pink papered Westfalen mare by FRUEHLINGSBALL.This mare had a successful show jumping career with numerous wins and placings at Spruce Meadows. However, as you can see from her gaits, she could have been equally successful in the Dressage ring. The cross with OLYMPIC FERRO, who has also sired show jumpers as well as dressage horses, gives one the flexibility of either discipline. FRUHLINGSDRALLE, again in foal to OLYMPIC FERRO, sells as Lot 1 of this sale, providing a unique opportunity to view the dam for yourself. |

Notes: |
FERRO'S FELICIA is an outstanding individual with superior conformation and movement. This yearling is from the Mesa Butte frozen semen program, which includes OLYMPIC FERRO, CRUISING, INDOCTORO, VOLTAIRE, and COOLCORAN COOL DIAMOND. Movement that has to be seen to be appreciated is a quality she shares with her sire. FERRO'S FELICIA has a brilliant future in the dressage ring with her impeccable gaits already evident as a yearling. An exciting prospect not to be missed! |
