(Sandro’s Star - Milwaukee Brew xx)

Sandrino has been a barn favorite since he was a foal. In the barn he has a wonderful personality, he is incredibly sweet, in your pocket and wants to please.

Under saddle he is brave and extremely willing. He is good off the leg, soft in the contact and he has three good gaits. He is simple and uncomplicated to the fences and he has always been very brave both on and off property. In addition to the eventing word, he very easily could walk into the hunter ring. He has super form and always makes a lovely picture!

Due to no fault of his own 2023 has been a quiet year for him which is why I am looking to find him a person of his own. He has been in light work at various points throughout the year but he’s ready to get going and come out for the 2024 season.

This is a wonderful opportunity for a rider looking for a quality horse on a limited budget.

Rippa

 

Rippa

16hh I 2019 | Thoroughbred | Mare | $25,000

(Madefromlucky xx - Seeking Daylight xx - Bucksplasher xx)

Rippa was carefully sourced in February after racing seven times. She has been properly let down, and slowly introduced to life as a performance horse.

Rippa has three quality gaits with a very balanced way of going. Over fences she has exceptional technique. She shows a natural bravery to the jumps, proper reflexes, untapped scope, and a careful reaction. She is soft and steady in the contact.

She has been introduced to courses and basic grid work. Cross country she has been schooling ditches, water, and banks. She is intelligent and eager to please.

She is an exciting prospect with upper level potential for an aspiring YR/AA or Professional to develop into the discipline of their choice.

We don’t often source Thoroughbreds, but when we do they are special. This one is no exception.

Saint Charles is a breathtaking young horse with a strategically bred pedigree that insinuates the highest levels of sport with temperament and rideability in mind.

His Sire, Sandro’s Star drives the notion that a performance pedigree should reap a performance horse – his success in sport is a direct nod to a background of well-regarded Oldenburg and Holsteiner blood anchored by an equally influential Thoroughbred dam line

Provisionally licensed by the German Oldenburg Verband in 2011, Sandro’s Star garnered high praise and a perfect “10” for his canter from the judges. These initial qualities were proven further at his 70-Day Stallion Test in 2012, highlighted by scores of “10” for cross-country gallop and cross-country jumping, “9” for canter and stadium jumping ability, and “8.5” for temperament and willingness to work. Sandro’s Star received an impressive final index of 115.32, placing fourth overall. Following testing, Sandro’s Star was sent to Germany and qualified for the 2013 Bundeschampionate in Eventing – a first for a US bred horse. A strong final score of 8.1 further solidified the young stallion’s ability in a field of 70 horses.

The dam sire, Viscount the Valentino-Acorado son, finished the 2011 Hanoverian Stallion Licensing as the most expensive jumping stallion, and secured himself a stall at the Niedersächsischen Landegestüt Celle. The applause and elation of the audience validated the impressive knock down price of 270,000 Euro. During the licensing the jet black stallion was immediately convincing on the triangle with his outstanding conformation, a very good striding walk, and an excellent swinging trot full of impulsion. The beautifully typed stallion set himself apart from the rest even more with a consistently uphill canter, tremendous ability, and an excellent style over the jump. The Breeding Evaluation Committee agreed with the audience, and named Viscount a Premium stallion. At his 70 day performance test in Adelheidsdorf in 2012 Viscount was given 138 for jumping and 126 for dressage. This stallion was scored at 9 for character, 8.63 for rideability, 8.67 for jumping, 8 for trot, 8.5 for canter, 7.5 walk, and 9.25 for cross country. Here is a magnificent dual purpose stallion that shows a wonderful character and rideability.

Saint Charles is an exciting young horse for a professional, adult amateur, or young rider looking for an exciting prospect to develop with a world class pedigree.
