TOREADOR GROOTENHOUT

The dam line’s dressage genes topped up with PRE World Champion

SIRE 
Are you looking for something special? We have found it for you. The colt Toreador Grootenhout is an offspring of the PRE stallion Poeta de Susaeta! Currently active in the Grand Prix, the pitchblack Spanish stallion proved invincible at the 2016 and 2017 World Championship for PRE horses (SICAB), obtaining scores of over 80%. He furthermore secured the silver medal at the Spanish championships, rivaling against the ‘regular’ dressage horses and competed at the World Championship for Young Dressage Horses in Ermelo when he was five and six years old. He recently made his debut at the highest level and immediately gathered scores of over 70%. The PRE stallions are known for their aptitude for collection and can give an enormous power-boost to modern dressage breeding.  

DAM 
The dam of Toreador Grootenhout is the Glock’s Toto Jr.-daughter Naturella Grootenhout. During her EPTM this mare received 8s for her walk, canter, rideability and trainability, and perspective as a dressage horse. Being a daughter of Glock’s Toto Jr, the precious dressage genes of Totilas are flowing through her veins. Glock’s Toto Jr is not only drawing attention with his performances under Edward Gal at the highest level, he is also increasingly leaving his mark on breeding. The pedigree then features the top progenitor Furst Heinrich, this Florestan I-son sires various approved stallions and Grand Prix horses. The full sister of granddam Bolinde, Alinde, was successful in the Small Tour. The half-sister Zolinde (s.Sunny-Boy) earned her stripes in the ZZ-Licht classes. Great-granddam Solinde is a daughter of the Small Tour stallion Kennedy. It is evident that there is no shortage in dressage genes in this dam line.
