Wolfgang

Wolfgang is a son of the legendary `preferent` stallion Farn {by Fax I}. Farn is well reputed through his progeny in showjumping, such as Odin N., Black and White Design, Trust Me, Nimmerdor, Opstalan`s Pasquino, Olympus, Put Optie, Sheffield, Orlando, Talman and Optiebeurs Investment, and as a grandsire of, for example, Felix. Farn has several approved sons, amongst which the world famous Nimmerdor. Wolfgang`s dam is the very attractive `keur-preferent-performance` mare Jolanda. Her sire is the thoroughbred Erastosthenes xx. He produced such well-known offspring as Iwan F, Hala NB, Cyrano, Horatio, gamin, Oscar and I. Socrates. In the third generation we find Uron (by Nelson}. Uron is a pre-eminent example of a Gelders stallion which has put his conformation stamp upon breeding. Wolfgang`s full sister, Zwaantje, won several national 1.40 meter competitions with Pieter Kersten.

Wolfgang gave a striking performance in Ermelo at the Performance Test. He earned nines for jumping under saddle, stable manners and training behaviour. For both the cross-country and the driving test he was awarded a figure 8,5. In the national stallion competition he was very successful with Henk van den Broek. Wolfgang`s offspring includes various approved sons in Europe as well as many international showjumpers such as Extreme with Lesley Burr, Frederic, Goldrun II, Fior, Freedom, and World Champions at Lanaken Illussion and Kigali. These famous children of Wolfgang have been winning at Grand Prix level and World Cups. One of the most famous offspring of Wolfgang is Michael Whitaker`s Handel II. They achieved the unthinkable results in Stuttgart by winning both the Grand Prix and the Masters. Wolfgang also has several offspring doing well in dressage. Both Jester with Kebie v.d. Heijden and Whinny Jackson compete at Prix St.Georges level. Wolfgang is a beautiful `allround` stallion that produces both dressage horses and showjumpers. Approved sons of Wolfgang are: Esteban, Jester, Whinny Jackson and Oscar.
