Flavia was the Reserve Champion of the central mare grading in the breeding district of Rhineland-Palatinate/Saar and is an impressive looking mare with good frame and harmonious body proportions. She is very tall standing 172cm and has proven herself as a very high quality broodmare.

Her dam Flinke’s sire Guter Planet is a maternal half brother to the Champion stallion Guter Stern and the Champion mares Gute Wahl, Gute Sitte and Gute Welt. Guter Planet was Reserve Champion of the grading at Neumunster and is a proven and very versatile sport horse producer whose offspring win at advanced levels in dressage, eventing and show jumping. This G-family is known to have many graded stallions, premium mares and numerous Champions and is very well known for their wonderful rideability.

Guter Planet’s sire Elite stallion Consul was a major stallion for the Trakehner breed and deserves the same recognition as the famous stallions Habicht, Donauwind and Mahagoni. He was also a proven contributor as a mare sire and left a huge mark on the Hanoverian breed. Champion stallion Don Frederico, graded premium stallion Don Vino, Dark Diamond (a Verden top seller) and the Olympic and World Championship Gold medallist Bonaparte are all out of Consul daughters. He produced his first foal crop in Neumunster Germany in 1986 and with a resounding roll of the drums: SEIGNEUR, Champion - with a record price in the auction; ROCKEFELLER, Reserve Champion; ONASSIS and INKOGNITO. In total, Consul produced a total of 10 graded sons in the Trakehner breed (in addition to the above: RESSORT, ENCHANTEE, KAISERWALZER, GARIBALDI, and KHALIF).

Consul's influence on the breed was particularly significant through his daughters. With 137 registered broodmare daughters, Consul stands in 3rd place behind Kostolany (169) and Patron (154).  His daughters have produced many graded stallions (ICHI-BAN, KITFOX,  GLANZLICHT, HALBGOTT, HELING, DOMHARDT, GADSBY, ADENEAR, TAMBOUR, TRAVELL to mention a few).  In the Hanoverian and Oldenburg breed, Consul daughters have also an excellent reputation as reliable produces.

The impressive characteristic of Consul get is their great uniformity. The term "individual potency," coined by Hans-Joachim Kohler, was particularly applicable to Consul. More than 30 top level dressage horses are proof of Consul's dressage talent genes. Consul, as a sire, have a dressage index of 120, and a jumping index of more than 100, making him a reliable sport horse producer. He stamps his offspring with high natural rideability, superior intelligence, and brilliant athleticism. Consul was voted Trakehner stallion of the year in 1997 and gained a premium at his grading in Neumunster.

The Feh-branch of the mare family also produced the approved stallions Ferlin, Ferlino, and Frohsinn as well as the S-level show jumper Feuervogel.

Flavia’s sire E.H Münchhausen TSF was the Champion of his grading in 1997 and the winner of his stallion performance test in Neustadt/Dosse with an amazing 149.30 points. He also won the National Riding Horse Championships, placed at the Bundeschampionat, won the Reserve World Champion title at the FEI Young Dressage Horse Championships in Verden and finally, in 2005, was selected for the Danish Team and participated at both the European Championships in Hagen/Germany, as well as the CHIO Aachen with his Danish rider Fie Skarsoe. A popular sire from the very beginning, he is graded for almost all European Stud Books and has several graded sons in Westfalie, and sons Sambatänzer, Meraldik and Mon Baron in the Trakehner breed. Many of his daughters have received premium status and with his first crop of riding horses coming into the right age now, several pop up as excellent dressage talents, e.g. the gelding Garbor (Bundeschampionat 2005) and the mare Media Luna (FEI World Championships, Bundeschampionat and now at S level). Münchhausen TSF is the most successful of the many Hohenstein sons in the breed. His dam Mohnblüte is an in hand Champion mare and her sire, the black premium stallion Königsstein, although not very well known, has made a name for himself. Second dam sire Arrak was a direct Ibikus son and produced horses for the highest levels in all three disciplines, e.g. the Olympic dressage horse Merlin TSF with Carolin Hatapla/Austria.

Munchhausen’s sire Hohenstein is the only stallion within the last 30 years of breeding, which has had such an influence on the improvement of riding ability. This big black and beautiful Caprimond son is well known as a dressage sire in the Hanoverian and Oldenburg breed as well as in the Trakehner breed. He became a Premium stallion at his grading in 1993, Reserve Champion of his performance test and 3rd in the Nationals German riding horse Championship. Hohenstein is now competing at Grand Prix in dressage. A sire of over 13 graded sons in different breed, he is also the sire of a big number of outstanding riding horses and top prize horses at auctions. His dressage index of 145 establishes on the top positions in the group of the most proven and successful dressage sire of all German breeds. His dam Helena is a full sister to the Champion mare Hama, Harma and Havanna. Hohenstein was given the Elite status in 1999 and was voted the Trakehner stallion of the year in Germany in 2002.

Hohenstein’s sire Caprimond is one of the most sought after Trakehner’s in Germany.  In 1995 Caprimond was awarded Elite status and at the age of 10 years old, he was the youngest sire ever to receive this award. In 1998 he was voted Trakehner Stallion of the year.  He was Reserve Champion of his grading and Champion of the stallion performance test and reserve Champion of the Bundeschampionat for 3-year-old riding horses. In 1996 he received the rare distinction as being one of the very few foreign stallions to be admitted to the French Dressage Horse-Breeding programme, ‘Plus Dressage’.

Caprimond had an exceptional career as both a sire and a ridden performance horse. In 1996 Caprimond achieved the 1st of several Grand Prix wins.
 In 2002 Theresa Wahler at the young age of only 14, won her 1st PSG on Caprimond and her 10 year old brother Christoph Wahler rode him at several Stallion shows demonstrating all the Grand Prix movements including piaffe and pirouette.

Caprimond is highly valued for his siring ability and he is well known for produces offspring with beautiful heads and necks and excellent riding ability. Caprimond is also ranked the number one sire for passing on “type” within the Hanoverian breed.

In 2007, once again, Caprimond, with an index of 183, headed up the rankings of the Hanoverian breed with his son E.H Hohenstein 6th in the same rankings! Of all Caprimond’s approved sons EH Hohenstein is considered to be the most sought after stallion in Germany.

Caprimond’s pedigree is exceptionally outstanding containing phenomenal stallions like E.H Arogno, Flaneur, Ibikus, Mackensen and Herzbube. His grand sire Arogno, Elite sire and by far the most influential stallion in post World War II, was a bay stallion with a picture perfect conformation and beautiful face, which helped him become the Reserve Champion stallion at his grading along with his fantastic movement and excellent rideability. Arogne was a full brother to our stallion Arentino’s mum Arktis II. When Arogno finished his performance test in Adelheidsdorf as a 3 year old he was pronounced the best stallion to be examined that year. He sired many successful offspring, one of his most famous being TCN Partout who, with Anky Van Grunsven, enjoyed a hugely successful international career at Grand Prix level in dressage. He also comes up with several more successful sport sires like Karon- winner dressage competitions Kl.S and Schwadroneur- sire of the year 2000 in Denmark.

Flavia is a big very kind and calm mare and have proven herself to be quite an amazing broodmare with her foals having fantastic uphill movement with very good hind and front leg action and always looking very alert holding themselves very proud in a positive way.
