Sire: Casino Royale K was Champion Stallion at his Weser-Ems Stallion Licensing in 2007 and won the Bundeschampionat two years running in Germany (2008 & 2009). He has also been licensed by Westphalia, Hannover and Schleswig-Holstein. In 2011, Casino Royal K started his international Pony Dressage career and was 4th at the 2011 CDI-PJYR Babenhausen. His sire, FS Champion de Luxe, was licensing and performance test champion (receiving four 10s), double Bundeschampion, three times Federal Stallion Show winner, and a Federal Premium Stallion. Casino Royale's dam, the State Premium mare Raffaela K, was champion mare in Weser-Ems in 2000 and winner of the Elite mares show in Vechta and national mare winner in Aachen. Casino Royale K's granddam, Elite mare Rosepark Prelude, is dam of Black Bianco K and Basalt K, who were placed at the Bundeschampionat. Basalt K won Team Silver for Holland at the 2006 Pony European Dressage Championships. Rosepark Prelude is also the dam of the State Premium Mares, Roxana K and Rosenna K, as well as of the licensed stallion Bon Jovi, who was sold to the US through the Vechta elite auction.
Dam: Mona was a Premium graded Westphalian mare who produced at least 3 licensed stallions, among them the Rhineland Licensing Champion, Padparadscha, before being imported to the UK. Mona was awarded a Silver Medal in 1992 and 1993 from the Westphlian Studbook. She is also graded Weser-Ems (Studbook 1), Rheinland (Head Studbook) and SPSS (Head Studbook). Mona's dam, Reviera is a daughter of Silvertop's Ricco, a graded son of the British Riding Pony, Catherston Red Gold, who was an important influence in German Riding Pony breeding. Mona was awarded the "Leading Sports Pony Dam" Certificate of Merit by the BEF in 2010 based an average progeny score of 8.43.
Damsire: Matcho is a German Riding Pony with some Arab ancestry through his grandsire, the part-bred Arab Merafic. Matcho's dam, Lucie has the classic names, Downland Chevalier, Solway Master Bronze and Bwlch Valentino in her pedigree. |
