Away HW black Hanoverian gelding by Dauphin (Donnerhall/Feiner
Stern)/World Cup I, born in 2004, standing approximately 16.1¾
hands. Imported FEI Superstar, really sweet, pretty as can be and
already at 2nd level, training 3rd, flying changes started!
Dance Away HW – Nomen et Omen,
as promised by his name, he is an impressive moving FEI prospect and
a super horse with high ride ability – he will make you fall in
love in an instant. He was already successfully shown. He just looks
and moves like his famous sire Dauphin. Dauphin is a type Donnerhall
son from an outstanding mother line developed at Groenwohldhof where
his sire stood for breeding. The dam side brings an additional
legacy of performance blood to the stellar heritage of Dauphin’s
legendary father. There are three older sisters who have already
earned their SPS or EM status and additionally have shown in
competitions.
Marefield Meadows, his breeder,
was fortunate when Dauphin was invited to join 49 other colts in the
11-Month Stallion Performance Test at Adelheidsdorf. He was the only
privately-owned stallion of the group and he was given the headstall
number 50. His earnest work ethic seemingly indicated that he was
trying hard to prove the number on his bridle would not determine
the rank of his standing at the end of the training period. The
German breeders who followed the young stallions as they progressed
in their careful and thorough program were favorably impressed with
Dauphin’s swinging back and happy attitude. “For him it’s like
play; the riding is a game to him,” was the report from one
breeder who viewed Dauphin at the first public presentation of the
training group; and those who visited him in his stall commented on
his kind nature and good manners.
He also showed a sturdy toughness
when he made it through the entire training and testing period
barefoot. There were quite a few in this group of young stallions
who were highly talented in jumping but Dauphin managed to hold his
own by finishing in the middle of the pack, a surprising placement
for a horse from bloodlines that typically are considered almost
exclusively for dressage. By the end of the test he had earned a
score in dressage that ranked him fourth in the group, and Dauphin
was invited to remain at Celle on breeding lease.
