Born 11th April 2019
Escolar x DiMaggio x Biotop
Elmo - the first foal from Dea Fortuna, the last of the DiMaggio x Biotop x Cocktail homebreds and possibly the best of all of them.
Dea was unable to be performance tested as a 3 year old because she had a virus and so we had to abandon her test under saddle to ensure the safe delivery of this special boy. She was however graded with the BHHS and entered in the show where she became not only the 3 year old Champion but the overall Youngstock Champion.
Escolar was the highest ranked stallion in the breeding index in Germany for 2018 and a Grand Prix Stallion. Both Biotop & Cocktail were themselves world class Grand Prix stallions and with Dimaggio you have the World Breeding Champion at 5 years old.
The pedigree of this boy is outstanding.
He is with Mark Forrest and has just started his dressge career by winning his first 4 prelims, the first two with scores around 73% and the second two with scores in excess of 77%.. His latest outing to the indoor at Hartpury secured a win with 79.8%

Bonne Esprit GF(BHHS) (Not for Sale)
Born 29th April 2020
Bon Coeur x Sezuan x Sherlock Holmes
By Embryo Transfer
Mum Suki was the 5 year old Hickstead International Champion in 2019 and has now been sold to further her career with Claire Abel so when Essie arrived we were particularly pleased that we had a filly.
Bon Coeur was a premium stallion in Verden in 2014, and won his 30-day test in Schlieckau in a very strong field with total points of 9.1 for his gaits. During the 30-day test, he was rewarded with the maximum of 10.0 several times. Bon Coeur has been awarded 9.0 multiple times for rideability during qualifiers to the Bundeshampionat. He was also champion in Hannover 2016 and was, both as a 3-year and 4-year-old Reserve-Bundeschampion in Warendorf. He was awarded the Weltmeyer Prize 2017, from the Hanoverian Association for his magnificent year in the sport. In September 2018, Bon Coeur made his first start in Sweden. He had an impressive 93% in the 6-year-old test, with a 10 for future prospects. In January 2020 Bon Coeur made a start at international small tour with +71% in Wellington, Florida.
This filly is a keeper for us at Glossoms for future sport and breeding via ET

Born 1 May 2020
D'Egalite x Solimun De Hus x Likoto xx
Very very pleased with this chap, from our St Pr St mare Schneeflocke (Saffy). Danny has delighted us from the moment he was born and said 'Hey look at me!'
Sire D‘Egalité inspired as the most striking stallion of all licensings in 2015. D’Egalité became undisputed winner of a group of strong competitors at the Westphalian licensing in Muenster-Handorf. Well framed top line, excellent walk and exemplary rideability.
Results- He completed sovereignly both the 14-day test and the sport test with top scores. The Westphalian Verband honoured D’Egalité with the VTV title in the stallion championship on the occasion of the licensing in 2017. In 2018, D’Egalité won extraordinarily in elementary (L) level tests for young dressage horses, always with scores above 8.0. He qualified effortlessly for the Bundeschampionat.
Danny is now under saddle and is available to a special home.

GF Navarreuse (BHHS) (Sold)
Born 2nd June 2020
Navarro x Locksley 11 x Davignon x Matcho AA
This is Leonie's 4th foal but her first for us here at Glossoms. Leonie was purchased by us as a foal from the Auction in Verden and we are delighted that she is now part of our breeding program.
Nesta is a long legged black filly from the Negro son Navarro
Navarro impressed at his licensing in Verden with his clear forward impulse, strong back and natural balance as well as an outstanding temperament. He is clearly influenced by his father Negro, sire of Valegro who needs no further comment.
Navarro's mother St.Pr. St Santa Maria is also dam to a graded stallion by Lingh & Navarro's full sister Nonina sold for 230,000 euros through the P.S.I auction.
Although bred for dressage, Nesta has displayed a desire to jump for the fun of it in the field, and with the Anglo Arab blood of Matcho and the thoroughbred blood of both Lauris Crusader xx from her dam line and Cardinal xx in the back pedigree of her sire, she could have a promising career in any discipline.

GF Bellini (BHHS)
Born 26th April 2021
Bellany x Dimaggio x Biotop x Cocktail
This is Beano, a chestnut colt by Bellany, the 2019 Oldenburg Champion stallion by Bon Coeur.
He is the second foal out of our own homebred Dea Fortuna GF, who is full sister to GF DeVille and GF Dusautoir, both of whom were licensed stallions, Deville was fully licensed for the Hanoverians and WBS (UK) and Dusautoir for the WBS UK.
Dea herself was the 2018 BHHS Youngstock Champion but an unexpected virus just before the Hanoverian show prevented her from being performance tested.
Beano has been sent away to be backed and will be coming back to us in November 2024 where he will be turned away for the winter to allow him to grow and mature.

First Leonie GF (BHHS)
Born 20th April 2023
Furst Zonic x Locksley 11 x Davignon x Matcho AA
Leonie has given us a super filly from the Licensing Champion Furst Zonic. He made a star appearance in the licensing arena and was placed at the top whilst receiving cheers from the expert audience.
We chose him because of the outstanding quality of his three basic gaits walk, trot and canter which makes him a horse well suited for the big dressage arenas. The genetics of this star stallion with his Champion sire Furstenball and the damline which has produced multiple world champions means that we are hopeful that this beautiful filly will be a future dressage star..
Freda was taken as a last minute substitute to the BHHS show in September where she was awarded the coveted premium status.

The first foal from Bonnie who will be going back under saddle once this beautiful girl is weaned.

He was given 9,0 for the trot, canter, rideability and capacity, and no marks were under 8,5.

Forever Amber GF (BHHS)
Born 22nd April 2024
For Real x Le Vivaldi x De Niro x Florestan
Amber delighted us from the moment she arrived and has continued to impress ever since.
For Real is a beautiful descendant of Farrell. Always dynamic and energetic in movement – an absolute highlight of German riding horse breeding. For Real has already revealed his natural radiance at his licensing in Münster-Handorf in 2020, where he caught a lot of attention.
His sire Farrell was premium stallion of the Hanoverian licensing in 2013, received a score of 9.04 at the Danish Championships of six-year-olds in 2016 and successfully competed internationally. From his first crop of foals, he produced five licensed stallions in Germany alone. His daughter Grevens Fakina became Mare of the Year in Denmark.
His dam St.Pr.St. La Castania received the 1c prize at the Westphalian Elite Mare Show in 2015. Lord Loxley I, German Champion of five-year-old dressage horses and Vice World Champion in Verden with Jana Freund in 2004, also appears in the pedigree. He then competed up to an advanced level with Heiner Schiergen. He produced 37 licensed stallions, almost 100 state premium mares, the German Champions Lord Carnaby, Laetare and FS La Noir as well as internationally successful Grand Prix horses.
It is clear that Amber will be a star of the future. She has a very active hind leg, full of cadence and power for her age.

Furst Albie GF (BHHS)
Born 4th May 2024
Furst Zonic x Locksley 11 x Davignon x Matcho AA
We loved our Furst Zonic filly from last year and decided to repeat the same breeding for 2024 so were especially delighted when Albie's full sister Freda received Premium status from the BHHS in September 2023.
Albie is a super mover and is already showing signs that he will be a powerful, athletic type with a promising career ahead of him.
