Florianus II

Florianus 2 is a son of one of the most popular and prolific sires of the modern era, Florestan I. Among Florestan's many successful offspring are the Young Horse Champions Florencio, French Kiss, Fürst Heinrich and Fidermark, as well as top Grand Prix horses such as Floriano. 

Florianus has an equally strong damline. His mother is SPS Die Dame, who won many tests for young riding horses and elementary level jumping classes. Full sister, SPS Dornröschen, took third place at the Bundeschampionat in Warendorf, and was a top-priced mare at the Elite Auction in Münster. These mares, along with Florianus' granddam, SPS Rebecca, were the winning family at the Westfalen Elite Broodmare Show and represented Germany on a European level in Brussels. 

The Warendorf State Stud stallion, Dottore, is a full brother to Florianus' dam. This damline, with Hanoverian origins, produced the licensed stallions Dalheim, Doll, Falkenstern I, Falkenstern II and Gotthardsen. 

Florianus successfully participated at the 2003 Bundeschampionat in Warendorf and the 2004 World Championships for Young Dressage Horses in Verden before moving into the FEI Levels. As one of Karin Rehbein's youngsters, he finished the 2005 show season, at the age of seven showing Intermediate II. He has a strong talent for collected work and in 2006 won numerous ribbons in Grand Prix. In 2007, Florianus won over 22,000 Euros making him the most successful Westfalen dressage horse in Germany. Nationwide he placed eleventh. 

Florianus made his North American debut in 2009 by winning the Grand Prix at Dressage on the First Coast. He won five Grand Prixs in 2009. In 2010, Florianus placed third in the FEI Test of Choice at the WDC Holiday Challenge. In 2011, his daughter Floraya ISF won the Yearling Fillies class at Dressage at Devon, while another daughter, Florence ISF, placed second. Florianus won first and fifth in the Get of Sire class. Daughter Fashion Week was selected for the Elite Hanoverian Auction. In 2012 at Dressage at Devon Breed he won first place, Get of Sire and at 2012 DAD CDIW - Grand Prix, fifth, Grand Prix Special, seventh, and four wins at Grand Prix Level.

Uno Don Diego

In 2014, Uno Don Diego won four Prix St. Georges and Intermediate I classes with scores as high as 73% at the Adequan Global Dressage Festival. He has three quality gaits, an excellent temperament and work ethic.

 “Uno” was bred by the legendary Stutteri Uno in Denmark. He was licensed as a Premium Stallion in 2006 by the Danish Warmblood Society. In 2009, he represented Denmark in the Six-Year-Old Final at the World Young Horse Championships in Verden. Before leaving for the United States he competed at Advanced Level dressage in Denmark. 

Uno Don Diego's sire is Dressage Royal whose bloodlines include the prolific Donnerhall x Rubinstein I cross. However, it is Diego's legendary dam who produced two licensed sons, Diego and Uno Don Diablo, as well as the remarkable Uno Donna Unique, World Young Horse Champion. 

Uno passed his 35-Day Performance Test with a total dressage score of 866 and jumping total of 709. At his final grading in 2007 he was awarded a breeder's silver medal and the Challenge Cup of Aage Ravn for being the best 4-year-old Danish-bred dressage breedsire. He is a stallion with good manners in the stable, also with other stallions. He is energetic with very good and uncomplicated temperament, a good character and is very willing to work. He has been praised at shows/licensing for his smooth and rhythmic movement, especially in the walk and canter and elastic trot. He jumps willingly with good attitude. 

Uno's own offspring have also received accolades. From his first crop in Denmark, son, ERA Dancing Hit was the Dressage Champion his Stallion Test and awarded the Gold Medal. Daughters Uno Danuska and Donna Divina Holst were both awarded the Bronze Medal at the Elite Mare show in Denmark. In 2016, son Independent Little Me was named Champion Gelders Stallion at the KWPN Stallion Show and selected for the stallion testing. 

Uno Don Diego is an excellent choice for mare owners looking for stallions free of Jazz, Ferro and Flemmingh blood or in search of cooled semen from Donnerhall lines.
