| Sire: | HOCHTALER is an approved Canadian Trakehner stallion out of the CWHBA approved premium |
| Trakehner mare HELA. HOCHTALER has had a distinguished performance career with wins and |
| championships from Modified Hunter to Grand Prix Jumper. His sire, BUTOW, completed his 100 |
| day test in Medingen finishing 5th out of 25. He competed successfully in dressage and is the sire of |
| numerous award winning progeny. His own sire, MAHAGONI, is sire of PERON, the 1996 |
| Olympic Bronze Medallist for the USA, as well as such well know sires: CHRONOS, |
| DONAFURST, ENRICO CARUSO, INSPEKTEUR, and others. |
| Dam: | FARGO'S DARK HOPE hails from the exceptional families of NEARCO / NASRULLAH, through sons NEVER BEND and BOLD RULER; and FAIR TRIAL. The NEARCO line is considered very prepotent as a sire of jumpers. The list of Grand Prix and international jumpers descending from NASRULLAH is formidable. NEVER BEND was Champion 2 Year Old and Leading Sire of England. He sired 60 Stakes Winners, including: RIVERMAN whose grandson, the US TB, SLANEY, now stands in Holland, as an Improver for the KWPN. Through the dam family, we see the exceptional FAIR TRIAL, descended from the ROCK SAND line which has been very influential in the bloodlines of leading jumpers in North America. In the development of the modern Dutch Warmblood, prominent stallions were COURVILLE by FAIR TRIAL and, most famous of all, LUCKY BOY by COMPROMISE, a son of FAIR TRIAL, a son of FAIRWAY. In Germany, FAIRWAY is in the pedigree of LADYKILLER, MARLON and PAPAYER. |
| Notes: | This is a pedigree very strong in jumping lines. Through both the sire and dam we see strong performance pedigree and competition success. |
