Davidoff Hit This charming young stallion descends from exquisite individuals and a family of success quite unparalleled by others. His sire Don Davidoff and his damsire Sandro Hit were both World Champion Young Dressage stallions, Gold Medalists under Dr. Ulf Möller at the FEI World Dressage Championships for Young Horses. His dam’s granddam Fantastica is the mother of Capuccino 16 (by Classiker), Champion Grand Prix horse under Karin Rehbein, and also the PSI stallion Sunny Boy (by Sandro Hit). Fantastica directly represents the valued motherline of the Oldenburg mare Fiesta (Donnerhall-Pik Bube I) whose progeny include Don Schufro (Donnerhall) who was 2004 Champion Grand Prix horse in Denmark and is widely well-thought of as a producer. Fiesta also produced the Champion states premium mare St.Pr.St. Fabina (Donnerhall), winner of the Elite Oldenburg Mare Show in Rastede. Davidoff Hit’s sire Don Davidoff (Don Gregory-Rubinstein) was a Champion at ages 3, 4, and 5. He was the 2000 Oldenburg Licensing Champion and went on to win the Bundeschampionat (German Young Horse Championships) as a 3-year old under Heinz Jorg Wachter. Don Davidoff won the Gold Medal in the 5-year old division of the World Championships before sold to millionaire Bechtolsheimer of England. Sandro Hit, Davidoff Hit’s damsire, needs little introduction. The sleek, black 17.H Oldenburg stallion has time and time again presented top offspring at stallion licensings, national and world championships, and elite auctions. His win of the Gold Medal in the 6-year old division of the World Dressage Championships for Young Horses preceded his win of the most competitive venue of all, the Bundeschampionat. He was titled Best Young Stallion of 2000 by the Oldenburg Verband. To date, Sandro Hit has over 65 approved sons. His first foal crop produced 10 licensed sons and his famous daughter Poetin (Sandro Hit-Brentano II), who won the World Championships and the Bundeschampionat in 2003. Poetin, who has frequently been described as one of the most “beautiful and talented dressage horses of this decade,” was later sold to the Netherlands for 2.5 million Euro’s at the PSI auction. Sandro Hit’s dam Loretta has produced other fantastic individuals including Diamond Hit (by Don Schufro), Royal Hit (by the Rohadiamant son Royal Dance) who a premium stallion of the 2002 Oldenburg licensing. Sandro Hit’s sire Sandro Song descends from top jumping blood, but the gift Sandro Hit has to offer is to the dressage arena. Neither Davidoff Hit nor his damsire Sandro Hit excelled in their stallion performance tests. However, in the words of Dr. Ulf Moeller, not every stallion is mature enough to perform the variety of requirements this performance test requires. We see no barrier in the future for Davidoff Hit to be a great performance horse. He will make his debut in the dressage arena in 2007 under Susanne Hassler and we greatly anticipate the quality that lies within him to be positively revealed.
