Dora
DOB: 03/23/2001
Hanoverian (AHS)

Dora came to us as with a hunter show background, however her beautiful movement led us to believe she would flourish in the Dressage ring. In 2009 she showed locally and qualified for USDF Dressage Region 6 Championships. Such a wonderful accomplishment her first year competing in Dressage. Dora participated in the '09 Hanoverian (AHS) Inspections and was placed in the Main Stud Book with a score of 7.0.  Dora has incredible blood lines including Davignon, Feiner Stern, Beach Boy and Pik Koenig.  We are excited to have her join us Tower Lane Farm.

Sire: Davignport is a Hanoverian stallion, approved both AHS Hanoverian and GOV-Oldenburg.  He was USDF ranked Davignport 4th out of 127 stallions based on the success of his offspring in dressage.  This ranking also included European stallions producing dressage horses in the U.S.  He enjoyed a successful season at Prix St. George and Intermediare in fact he won every Intermediaire entered under Olympic rider Bent Jensen.   Although he was shown successfully as a dressage horse, at his 100 day test his jumping index was higher than his dressage index.  It is no surprise that his kids love to jump.

Dam: Feldfeine. Feldfeine’s sire, Feiner Stern, achieved 9.0 4 times for his ability to perform, rideability, trot and gallop in training, and got more than 120 points in the final result. Due to this performance, in combination with a convincing first crop as well as his impressive appearance, he was awarded the title of main premium winning stallion in Oldenburg in 1987. In 2005 EuroDressage wrote: “Did you notice that the Hanoverian stallion Feiner Stern (Freiherr x Goldstern) is probably the most successful dam sire of the moment (surpassing even Weltmeyer)? In one licensing cycle, Feiner Stern was dam sire of the Champion of the Swedish Warmblood testing Figaro R (by Friendship x Feiner Stern), dam sire of the Danish Warmblood Licensing champion Valloes de Baron (De Niro x Feiner Stern), dam sire of the second reserve champion of the 2004 Oldenburg licensing (Donnerhall x Feiner Stern) and dam sire of the top selling, fifth placed stallion (by Depardieu x Feiner Stern), also at the 2004 Oldenburg licensing.

He is so fun to ride, a real departure from our warmbloods and would much prefer to come on into the house with us at night. He was 1st Level Freestyle Champion at our Region 6 Championships in 2008. We are working on a pas de deux for 2009 with another freisian in the barn, so watch for us.
