Fabina, Rastede Oldenburg Champion 2003
June 16, 2003
Fabina,
herself a full sister to Oldenburg Top Sire Don Schufro,
has been chosen to become Champion Mare 2003 at the
Oldenburg Elite Mare Show am June 14th, 2003 in Rastede.
The 3-year-old chestnut filly has been bred by Günter
Bastian, Bartgeheide, and belongs to the Blue Hors Stud
in Randboel, Denmark.
Selected from a large field of 99 qualified fillies,
19 finally gathered in the illustrous Brillantring.
Beside the Champion there were three more daughters
of dressage sire Donnerhall and three descended from
Donnerhall's son De Niro, like the Reserve Champion
Mare Uniqua bred by Helmut Kleen, Petersfehn. There
were many offspring by dressage sires like Sandro Hit,
Wolkentanz II, Florestan I, Lord Sinclair, Rubinstein
and Rohdiamant, but also show jumping sires like I need
you, Pilox, Lordanos and Argentinus were represented,
like the thoroughbreds Noble Roi xx and Rivero xx, who
had half-breds competing successfully.
Jan Pedersen, President of the Danish Warmblood Society
and President of the WBFSH (World Breeding Federation
for Sport Horses), did the comment on the event and
congratulated Oldenburg not only for their lovely Champion
Mare whose win was very convincing, but also stated
that Oldenburg, considering the quality of the whole
show, is heading into the right direction for a bright
future.
