"Fantastica has everything that we were looking for, a powerful hindleg and free shoulder, three quality gaits that will shine in the show ring. On top of that, she has the sweetest temperament anybody could want. I know she is going to be a joy to work with... We are already thinking we might take her to Devon this fall.

Mary Lou is rebreeding Rubizza to Fabuleux for 2010!

As a three year old at his first show, Fundamental scored an impressive 67% in training level test 2 to take first place.

"It was the first time he showed in a test and we just wanted to see how he would handle a show situation. we didn't expect his great performance! He even scored an 8 on gaits. Rider, Ashley Leck is a freshman in college and just loves him to death. She would love to event him in the future."

FRAPPUCINO HCF - FROM FOAL TO FANTASTIC HUNTER PROSPECT!
(Fabuleux x Rexona/Rubenstein/Barsoi xx) Breeder: Patti Monroe, Cypress, TX. Owner: Kelly Molinari, Wellington, FL.

UPDATE: Frappucino is still in training but we hope to take him to WEF in a couple of weeks to school him and if that goes well perhaps show him in one of the last weeks of 2010 WEF. I do love him dearly, he has so much personality and talent. He resembles Fabuleux more and more each day."

"In August I brought him to Peter Pletcher's farm for a trial assessment ride. Peter liked him very much and he is now with Peter beginning his Hunter training. I am very excited that Peter is working with him because he will really help Frappy mature into the great Hunter I think he has the potential to be. It is amazing what Peter has already taught him in two short weeks." See more photos of Frappucino as a foal further down this page.

FRANKLIN SQUARE - 2006 GELDING BY FABULEUX
(Fabuleux x Forever A Memory/Wummerstern/Racquet xx) Breeders: Scott & Kathy Campbell, Windsong Farm Hanoverians, Beaufort, NC. Owner: Veronica Finkelstein

"I wanted to let you know that I have one of Fabuleux's foals, and he's absolutely wonderful. I bought Frankie (then named "Frankie Fontaine," now named "Franklin Square" as a green hunter project. In the few months I've had him, he's proven to be a very talented horse with a wonderful brain."

"He's only three, but he's been off the property several times and been rock steady each time. My trainer rode him in a clinic with Richard Lamb and Frankie happily jumped small solid jumps despite having never done so before. He's been to two hunter shows and handled the atmopshere beautifully, pinning well each time in classes with much older/more seasoned horses. At his first schooling show he was first in three flat calsses and champion!"

"I even took him a dressage schooling show and rode him myself. I've never so much as BEEN to a dressage show, let alone ridden dressage (I do hunters). He was perfect for me and ended up 4th at intro test A despite having a rider who didn't have a clue. He was defeated only by upper level horses showing intro for schooling before their actual classes."

"He went to a HUGE horse show and was a superstar. Tents, blow up rides at a fair, 100s of horses, people whizzing past him on golf carts-- he took it all in stride. He's got a great brain! He went in a young hunter classes for horses 5 and under. He was the only 3 year old. He hacked beautifully. In the conformation division, he got moved up ahead of several horses and he was 6th overall... at a HUGE show in a class with VERY fancy horses. He'll be unstoppable next year when he's 100% solid on his leads. I couldn't believe how well he did with all the chaos!"

"In all, he's just been wonderful-- and he has a great future ahead of him. I wanted to let you know what a nice foal your stallion produced. He's only three and already he's been a rockstar, I can only imagine how he'll be once he's older and can really start jumping and showing."

FEDERAL FORCE AV - 2008 COLT BY FABULEUX
(Fabuleux x Wellesley - Oldenburg mare) Breeder: Janako Farms, Ontario, Canada. "Federal Force is a stunning horse, with lots of muscling and bone, and most of all presence. He has excellent conformation, and movement, including his sire's large walk and outstanding canter. This colt will truely be a force to be reckoned with once he makes his 3 yr old year. He will be eligible for the canadian performance futurity, and if wished he could easily be approved as a stallion. He is well handled since birth, and is a very independent individual."

2009 FILLY BY FABULEUX
(Fabuleux x Le Sandra/Lepanto/Sanstrum) Owner/Breeder: Eliza D. Rutherford, Fox Hollow Farm, Charlotte, VA.
Finally - a keeper filly out of Sandy!! I sold all of LeSandra's fillies thinking there would be more to come and she has insisted on having only colts for the past four years. This is an older mare who does not have many foals left in her and I was getting desperate for something to keep her line going in my broodmare band. The quality of horse this mare puts on the ground is outstanding and the temperaments on them are out of this world. This filly is a full sibling to Floriana FH, who was champion of her foal inspection and was just champion of her mare inspection with an overall 8! She even scored a 9 on her trot!! This filly is everything I had hoped for from this repeated cross and will hopefully carry on Sandy's legacy for
years to come."

FRISCO - 2008 ISR/OLD PREMIUM COLT BY FABULEUX
(Fabuleux x Ostara/Caesar/Calme) Breeder/Owners: Stacie and Jeff Coder, Effingham,KS. Frisco was named Reserve Champion Colt at the Kimberly DeYoung ISR/Oldenberg NA Inspection.
Owner's comments: "What a gorgeous colt, no surprise as both sire and dam carry such outstanding physical and temperamental characteristics. Frisco is already showing signs that he has inherited some of his sires most wonderful characteristics. Frisco was a premium colt at the ISR/Oldenburg inspection and had lovely remarks by the judges. Frisco began his show career in May 2009 with the USDF Breeders Series. After two breed shows during the summer, Frisco showed an outstanding temperament for all the preparation and performance that showing required....he was a true gentleman."

Farrington's dam, Bella Napoli is for sale. Please visit our clients news and sales page for details.

FULL MONTY - 2009 COLT BY FABULEUX
Breeder/Owner: Whitney Piatkowski, VT. "SUPER PERSONALITY totally independent of his mom. She can be 3 acres away and he'll be standing with me getting groomed. Takes everything in stride - not very excitable low key and totally a dog - he comes when he's called and will stand for hours just to be groomed. He's a keeper. I think Fabuleux did a great job improving my mares shoulder and neck set..."

EMC FABULUX BMW - AHS INSPECTION HIGH POINT MARE!
(Fabuleux x Winterprinz) Breeder/Owner: Emily Giammona, CA.

Bridlewood Farm congratulates Fabulux B.M.W. and her breeder/owner on achieving the honor of Top Mare at her 2009 AHS inspection and Elite Mare Candidate status with an impressive score of 7.33! Fabulux scored 8's on both walk and trot.

"We just returned home from the Breeders Classic in LA with our Fabuleux filly Fabulux and she did SUPER!! She was Reserve Champion on Saturday with a %76 and then today she earned her highest score to date --- %79.4. I love her so much!"

"Her next stop is the Championships in LA in October and then she will be backed this fall before heading back home to be a pasture pet for the winter. I think by that time she will be ready for a little down time. We are so pleased with her and I am more than excited to see her under saddle next year!"

FABULUX - 2006 FILLY BY FABULEUX

Bridlewood Farm congratulates Emily and Lexi on their successful showing!
"This past weekend was her first show of the season and she was 2nd in a class of really nice two year old Fillies scoring a 75.3% at the Starr Vaughn Breeders show. Lexi has been awesome and I am so happy with how she has turned out. Spending the time with her as a foal and training her through her first two years has been such a reward. She is now in in-hand training with Kevin and Ericka Reining of Lucchetti Ranch/Classic Sires. From here out we are planning on taking her to the LA Breeders Classic in August and then to the CDS/USDF Regional Championships in October. I happen to think she is pretty darn special!"

FIATO - 2008 COLT BY FABULEUX - BREED SHOW WINNER
Fabuleux x Piping Hot (Pablito/Pablo) Breeder/Owner: Victoria Barr, Caliente, NE "Fiato won the colts class at our last show in Bismark and is now qualified two time over for the year end west central championship. Peggy Klump was the judge and he recieved a 71.8. She really liked him and thought he was a great prospect She wrote " strong topline, elegant modern type, good muscling". Lilo Fore wrote "nice movement and will be an athlete". I think we are on our way to year end points. He really is a wonderful boy. I hope that I find someone to buy him to help him reach his full potential as a dressage horse."

"Fiato has an excellent temperament. He has been very easy to handle and loves attention! He has trailered, bathed, been clipped, is learning to cross tie and is handled daily. He is great for the farrier. He was a demo horse for a farrier clinic a part of our dressage society, and stood quietly for about 15 minutes while the farrier was handling his legs. When I was asked to trot him in hand, both the farrier and the trainer said "WOW" at his exceptional movement. He has a fantastic canter, like his sire, and huge, elastic trot. His walk is also very free with a nice overstride. At his inspection, the judge noted his strong hind end, wonderful topline, head and neck. He also received an 8.3 for overall type and impression. He should finish between 16.1 -16.2. Fiato has the movement to excel in dressage and a powerful hind end that could prove to be valuable for a jumper. He also has the temperament for an adult amateur or someone who wants a horse that is very trainable."

FORTISSIMO B - 2008 COLT BY FABULEUX
Fabuleux x EM Roma (Rubenstein I/Avus/Donani) Breeder: Bridlewood Farm, Owner: Camilla Van Liew, DVM, Charleston, SC.

UPDATE! Fortissimo B was named Reserve Colt Champion and third placed Young Horse Champion at the 2009 Georgia Horse Park Conyers, Georgia Breed Show!"

Fortissimo B's proud owner is Camilla van Liew, DVM. She is a dedicated Adult Amateur dressage competitor and is successfully showing the Advanced Event gelding, The Alchemist (competed at Rolex ****) in dressage at Prix St Georges. Fortissimo will be growing up with other youngsters on a 200 Acre breeding farm in Aiken, NC.
Breeder's comments: "He is one of the best we have seen, we couldn't be happier with this combination of Fabuluex and EM Roma. He has the gaits, conformation, and beautiful type that you like to see in a top prospect. His temperament is exceptional--we are thrilled!"
Owner's comments: "He is a really good boy, feels like he's an old soul with his "been there done that" outlook on life. He already crossties, loads well, hauls quietly, loves his bathes, clips, has had all sorts of tack and blankets all over him, stands for the farrier, stands by the mounting block, learning the basics of lunging and is learning about trotting up on the triangle. I'm planning on taking him to a dressage breed show over labor day weekend in Raleigh."

FABRIZIA HH - 2008 FABUEUX OLDENBURG FILLY
Fabuleux x Lisianthus (Rampal/Montgomery) Premium Oldenburg/Holsteiner mare. Lisianthus was the 1999 National high scoring Oldenburg mare. Breeder: Elizabeth Houtsma www.HillsideHRanch.com Owner: Kristen Anderson, Columbia, MO. We took our Fabuluex filly to her Oldenburg inspection today, and she had a great day. She sold in-utero and her new owner came to watch her be inspected. She was in an unfortunate growth phase, a little butt high and awkward, so the inspector gave her a 7.7 for conformation, but emphasized that she would grow out of it, but he had to judge what he saw today. BUT he raved about her movement, and scored her with an 8.5 !! also gave her an 8.2 for her overall impression for a total score of 8.1. Some of his comments were "typey, nice shoulder, very nice neck, PERFECT use of the hind end, incredible suppleness and extension, will make the perfect dressage horse". Those were quotes, so you can see why both the new owner and I were extremely pleased."

"We expect her to be a stellar dressage prospect. She has very correct conformation and already shows the ability to really use her hind end. Plus, you really couldn't ask for a better disposition; she is the friendliest foal on the farm!"

FALENA - CHAMPION FILLY (tie) AT HER AHS INSPECTION!
Fabuleux x Lasca (imported Holsteiner jumper mare, Landgraf, Capitol, Ramiro bloodlines) Breeder/Owner: Becky Boydston
"Falena is an exceptional filly in conformation, movement, and temperament. They don't come any prettier, and more typey, or more correct."
"Out of 8 fillies at the Sullivan Farm inspection today, my beautiful Falena showed her stuff, she literally floated. The judges went on and on about how good her movement is - mentioned several times, her free shoulder, her powerful rear, the excellent cross of Holsteiner and Hanoverian, and how big and pretty she is - (the German judge) sang her praises and the breeding of Fabuleux to Lasca.
"She tied for champion filly. The German judge also asked me if I was showing her in breed shows, and that she is an excellent filly."

FARSIRIS - 2008 FILLY BY FABULEUX
Fabuleux x Adear (Petrossian/Turk’s Choice XX (Night Cruiser XX), Rhinelander Mare. Breeder/Owner: Marie D. Domke-De Witt, Rochester, MN.
Photo from the ISR/OLD NA Inspection at Borderline Farm in MI. "...the judge took the time to mention both sides of the pedigree when he expressed the promising attributes of Farsiris, he loved and remembered Adear, her movement and the success of Hanoverian Pik line. When he saw that I bred her to Fabuleux he also shared what a good choice this was commenting "very nice choice", and explaining the success of Fabuleux's lines giving details of both the dam and sire side. He is very knowledgeable of the stallions available, their history and the difference between a well thought out breeding choice and those who are just breeding what's in their back yard. I felt special for the extra time he took to share what he obviously felt was worth while information to help educate the audience. No other horse or foal's pedigree was given such recognition at the event, so we both should be very proud!

Farsiris is extremely cognitive, she already thinks she is a big horse, her athleticism is beautifully "up-hill" and naturally expressive, as an FEI rider I couldn't be more excited about a foal. Thank you Barb for your support, you and Fabuleux have ours too"


"Looking for the right stallion to pair with my mare who already has a proven record with both breed registry and USDF DSHB championships was a bigger task than I had realized. There are so many nice horses out there but finding the type and quality to match my mare (my preference), was tricky. Fabuleux's ability to pass on his strengths complemented my mare's strengths so nicely to produce something very special. This may sound funny but I knew at the first moment when I saw her two front feet coming out that she was very special, to me they might as well have been gold and diamonds."
"Farsiris is very intelligent copies everything mom does even figured out how to drink out of the automatic waterer by day three. She is extremely affectionate and gives everyone kisses."
"Her movement is really exciting, she does have a really big walk like mom and dad, I think her trot is going to be something really special and her canter from what I can tell right now looks like it could end up to be a 10 like her daddy! She is very balanced. To me she is a wow, I hope the Germans will think she is too."

FLEURETTA EMF - 2007 FILLY BY FABULEUX
Fabuleux x Fun Choice xx (Don’s Choice xx/Altitude Spray xx) Main Studbook TB mare who has also passed the Mare Performance Test. Breeder: Kris Schuler, MS, Edgewood Meadow Farm, Fleetwood, PA www.edgewoodmeadowfarm.com Owners: Christine Vanneck and Sarah Owen, Muny Sunk Stables, Inc.

"I am very, very happy with this filly. She has a SUPER walk and very good canter – she is very free in the shoulder. She did well (in her first HB show) (two 2nds)... what is interesting is that a person approached my handler after the class – this person actually happened to be a carded Hunter Breeding judge – and asked the breeding of the filly and stated that “This filly should have been at The Devon Horse Show”. Pretty good response from her first time out. And the filly’s temperament is STELLAR – both at home and at the show. She acted like she was showing all her life and behaved perfectly with not much calling, no spooking, and just really good. My handler was tremendously impressed with the temperament, looks and movement of the filly (she had only seen a few inspection photos of her prior to this show). I will take her to a USDF show this summer."

"Anyway, I cannot say enough about how sweet and willing this filly is and she really is beautiful (imagine what she will look like as an adult as these are yearling photos!)."

"Dr. Schade (Hanoverian Verband) said she was the best conformed foal at last year’s Inspection.”

"This filly has been free jumped a few times and shows good form with nice square knees. She has a breathtaking walk (oversteps 12 inches or more, huge strided canter, and a very nice flat kneed trot -- she will place highly in the hack.

After that, I sent her back to Lauren (her breeder) for 30 days of undersaddle training in late fall. I have included a picture of our first ride--she had only been trotted a handful of times and cantered once and she was just fantastic for me! In fact, she has had off since then and we'll wait until the spring, but I hopped on her last week to go for a walk and she was perfect!"

At his inspection, the judge noted his strong hind end, wonderful topline, head and neck. He also received an 8.3 for overall type and impression. He should finish between 16.1 -16.2.

FANTASTICA - 2007 FILLY BY FABULEUX

Fantastica's temperament cannot be beat and her movement is excellent. She is long legged, has good bone, an easy going and fun personality. Her walk is very correct, with a long and swinging stride. Her trot is expressive, with good suspension, elasticity and a clear rhythm. She inherited her papa's fabulous canter. She should be a dream come true for an ambitious dressage rider and also would make a very valuable member of any serious breeder's mare herd. I believe she will shine under saddle.

Thanks again and what a super stallion!"

" I think she has the perfect canter! My filly is super cute, very leggy and definitely a good size. She has a really cute face and very nice straight legs... YIPPEEEEEE!!! Thanks again for making this breeding happen!"

Firefly has found a wonderful new home in Calgary AB. Her new owners are considering taking her to the Hanoverian mare
inspections at Spruce Meadows in the future, which is very exciting for me. Firefly has grown into a beautiful balanced yearling. Her legs and feet are perfect, her movement is beautiful. However, her BEST quality is her temperament, she seeks out people, she very calm, laid back, and very smart.
I can see she is "Fabuleux". I know she will make an excellent mount and future broodmare for her new owner.

Some of the inspectors comments were "Beautiful head and harmonious conformation, nice use of neck, lovely gaits, incredible presence..."

I was thrilled that he did so well (got choked up and shed a tear or two) - I thought I had something special with him and am REALLY looking forward to my 2007 foal by Fabuleux!

Just wanted to let you know that your boy continues to put impressive, lovely and CORRECT foals on the ground!"

His mom has a bit of a long back but this guy is compact with legs that go for miles and a GORGEOUS head. He is very kind and friendly and extremely easy to work with.

I am going to show him in breed shows and spread the word on this bloodline. Actually, I think Fabulano will do the talking for you and Debra."

"I wanted to say how wonderful Fabulano is, he absolutely has the best temperment ever. ...when he moves he absolutely takes your breath away. He has a natural passage and piaffe and we have high hopes for him. My daughter is currently showing I-I with her 22 yr old and is going to go for Junior/Young Riders next year, she had to drop out this year, then her goal for Fabulano is to go for the Bretina Cup and from what I see it will be an easy goal....he is going to grab everyone's attention."

Breeder's comments: "Fabulano has an incredible shoulder and neck with an equally strong hind quarter. He is marked with 2 beautiful matched hind socks with a perfectly placed star. Fabulano's refined chiseled face adorned by soft brown eyes make this colt irresitable! If his movement is as refined as his confirmation this colt will float before our eyes! Thanks again Dr Barb for another fantastic experience of breeding to your handsome Elite Stallion Fabuleux!" www.legendhillhanoverians.com

(Fabuleux x Fun Choice xx/Don's Choice xx/Altitude Spray xx)- AHS Studbook TB & Non-Hanoverian Champion at her inspection. Owners/Breeders: Kris and Dan Schuler, Edgewood Meadow Farm, Fleetwood, PA. www.edgewoodmeadowfarm.com

Firenza EMF got very good comments from judges, Volker Ehlers (AHS) and Jurgen Rump(GhV) at the large AHS Inspection held July 30, 2006 at Rolling Stone Farm. "A very tall colt who combines the best qualities of his TB mother with the fine attributes of his Hanoverian father. A muscular colt with excellent type, lovely head, excellent neck, and good overall proportions.
His movement is quite good with excellent rhythm and reach. He is overall exactly what we are hoping for when we choose to include a fine TB mare in our Hanoverian breeding program. The choice of Fabuleux for this mare was excellent!"
Photos: SusanJStickle.com

Owner's comments: "He has a very friendly personality and will have beautiful markings, actually very similar to Fabuleux's. Two hind socks and the star is of a very similar shape to his Dad. His walk is big and swinging and the canter is nice and engaged and uphill."
"He is the best foal out of this mare to date. She is one of the few TB mares to pass the Hanoverian MPT, and she did so with an "8" on rideability. This Fabuleux colt is very similar in type to her other foals, but his movement is superior - with an excellent walk and canter. The trot I have seen looks like it will be very nice with nice freedom of the shoulder and good rhythm."
Fun Choice is in foal to Fabuleux for 2007.

FAYME - 2006 GELDING BY FABULEUX
(Fabuleux x Wicca/Warkanson/Akzent II) Breeder/Owner: Anna Marriet, Vancouver, British Columbia.

He commented that Fabuleux improved the dam, that he had a nicer, more harmonious top line, better neck set (her's is a little low) and a better hind end. I see so much of Fabuleux in this foal, he really stamps them! Congratulations again on such a nice stallion!"

"I am so happy with him. He's perfectly put together, lovely head and neck and a nice topline. He is one of the nicest foals I have ever seen. His personality is showing more every day, and he is such a joy to work with. Very friendly and brave..."

"I just wanted to write and let you know how much I am enjoying watching my '06 Fabuleux gelding grow and develop. He is turning into quite the man! I really think he improved on my mare in exactly what needed to be "fixed". He has a great hind end, fantastic shoulder reach (his trot is stunning), and such a face! What a cutie. And of course, he is wonderful to work with."

"Lovely temperament, loves people. Fayme is rofessionally started under saddle with dressage trainer and shows nice form over fences. Suitable for the hunter ring!

FABLE MTF - 2006 COLT BY FABULEUX - SOLD!
(Fabuleux x SPA/EM Happy Hour/Hohenstein/Matcho x) Breeder: Susan Baranski, Moose Tail Farm, Conyers, GA. Breeder's comments: "He is gorgeous, as you would expect -- really built! Absolutely to die for head -- the softest eyes I have ever seen! Fable is such a character and such a lover -- he comes up and pushes his head under your arm next to your side to get a hug!"

"His new owner is just thrilled with Fable. Her vet thought Fable was just great. He was tremendously impressed with his temperment (it really couldn't be better) and also with the fact that Fable is halter broke, leads, lets you pick up all of his feet, stands to be brushed, etc."

Owner: Carol L. Michalik-Moore, Canton, GA. Owner's comments: "I thought you might like an update regarding Fable who arrived at our farm (Rosewalk Farm) on the 6th of November, 2006. He won the hearts of all of our “neigh” bors, kids, horses, dogs and the walkers on our road. He was just the most friendly, curious, spirited and you could just see the joy of life in him. I have never seen any horse cover the ground as gracefully and effortless – he looks like a gazelle at times with leaps, flying changes, even a capriole and levade thrown in when he is just turned out in the morning. I know he will make someone a fine riding horse someday as who could ask for more? Thanks for finding Fabuleux!"

GUESS WHO?

Really beautiful, elegant, hamonious, typy colt. Lovely head, beautiful set on neck with a lovely line to it. Good shoulder. Good loin area, well developed. Very good hind end. Good legs.

(Fabuleux x Rhapsody B/Rotspon/Matcho xx) Breeder: Bridlewood Farm. Sold to Tracey Woodward, Cincinnati, OH. Photo: Bob Tarr 2005. As Bridlewood Farm's first foal by Fabuleux, First Edition B has exceeded our expectations in every way. Dr. Schmidt comments, "He is so typical of Fabuleux's foals with his sloped shoulder, strong topline, well developed hindquarters, and correct foundation.

FABULAIRE - 4th PLACE YEARLING FILLY DRESSAGE AT DEVON 2006
(Fabuleux x EM Burgundy/Bordeaux/Picaro/Letkiss) Breeder: Peggy Kirkpatrick, Umatilla, FL. Sold to: Andrew and Jane Rodd, New York.

Fabulaire placed 4th in the Yearling Fillies Class at the 2006 Dressage At Devon out of 38 in the class!

Fabulaire was named top filly at her inspection and the judges commented on the breeding of a "refined, modern type Hanoverian from outstanding dressage and jumping bloodlines."

"Fabulaire is fabulous... Tell Fabuleux that he sent some great genes. He and Burgundy were a terrific match! It is amazing. She is inquisitive , loving and fun. She loves and craves human attention and runs to us when we go out to the pasture. Each AM she is groomed just like the other horses and has her time in the barn aisle with us. She picks up her feet and stands still for brushing and grooming and didn't mind the clippers at all when I put them on her. I believe she could be a dressage star."

FUTURE PERFECT - CHAMPION FOAL AT AHS INSPECTION
(Fabuleux x SPS Ester/Eiger I/Wenzel) Breeder: Kathleen Richardson, Sunny Days Hanoverians, Ontario, Canada. Future Perfect has been purchased as a stallion prospect by Melisa Powley, Saratoga Springs area, New York

"Dr. Schade named Future Perfect Best Colt and overall Champion Foal 2005 at his inspection, saying he was tops for type, conformation, and movement. He pointed out his sloping shoulder, good croup and legs, and the freedom and swing of his movement. There were 18 very good foals. Dr Schade noted that Fabuleux is presenting a very good foal crop This boy is a delight, with a gentle easy temperament about which I have no reservations."

"Future Perfect is a very tall, graceful colt, and a credit, I believe, to his father. His temperament is great - not shy, very cuddly. His conformation and movement are what one hopes for. I don't routinely breed-back in successive years, but you will surely hear from me again, as I believe this has been a very good cross. Thank you for all your help and support throughout the breeding process. And congrats on the number of very good foals (and happy owners) that Fabuleux is producing this year."

"This Fabuleux colt has an amazing canter, great walk and trot, and tons of charisma. He is for sale, and is capable of going far. In common with other Fabuleux foals - from what I've read and seen - Perfect has a great topline, long legs, uphill carriage, and innate friendliness and confidence. I get a kick out of his "king of the world" assumption!"

I will venture to say that we will not see too many foals for sale....breeders will be keeping most for themselves!!"

Floriana RH, won the NEDA Breed Show's Get of Sire Class on Sept. 12, 2007!

I had two at the River House inspection and he was very, very positive on both their comments. He called both outstanding foals."

"This Fabuleux filly was named champion filly of the large River House inspection. Judge Gerd Zuther greatly praised her conformation and how she uses her body when she moves.

He praised the quality of the Fabuleux foals across the country and said that they had even impressed the German judges."

FABUHALL (left) & FAEDRA (right) - TWO PEAS IN A POD?
People are having to look twice at some of Fabuleux's offspring! Early in his first foal crop it became evident in Fabuleux's amazing ability to stamp his foals. Two TOTALLY different breeding lines on these mares!!

Suzy Coleman, owner of Faedra writes: "I just had to send... this picture of our filly, Faedra (Fabuleux x Lathyrus(Leonidas)/Carmen(Waikato) Faedra is registered ISR/OLD and she scored an impressive 7.9 at her ISR/Oldenburg inspection on September, 2005. Faedra has a beautiful head! She is gorgeous! She is really something… She’s so pretty!!!"

"When I saw the picture of Fabuhall, I did a double-take. My first thought was "how did Faedra get on your website???". We are expecting our 2nd Fabuleux baby out of a Brentano II mare in 2 months... hopefully she'll be as nice as our first one!"

Debra Crockett Maddux, Legend Hill Farm is the owner of Fabuhall (Fabuleux x SPA Diotima/Donnerschlag/Matrose) "I received the email (from Suzy Coleman) and couldn't believe the resemblance of the two foals! Wow...."

"We sold Fabuhall at 3.5 weeks old. The new owners are so thrilled with these world class bloodlines that they are flying from CA to Virginia to see him again at his inspection. As breeders, it is important for us to pick the very best performance tested mares and select stallions with proven competition bloodlines. ES Fabuleux has proven to be competitive in the international dressage world and now is proving to pass along his elegance, willingness to work and tremendous suspension of grace that is so desired in the dressage arena. Producing a foal from Fabuleux has been a delight as well as a much anticipated experience as we watch this foal develop into tomorrows dressage champion! Thanks to Dr Barb for importing such a wonderful sire Fabuleux!" SPA Diotima is in foal to Fabuleux for 2006.

I have two Fabuleux foals, both fillies. Both are out of different types of mares. One mare is refined, the other more of the old style. But both foals are totally the same! We are very lucky to have this stallion here in the US. I hope that the other breeders are blessed with the same beautiful foals that we were. I will be rebreeding both mares back to Fabuleux in 2005." Fabiola has been sold to Debra and Thomas Parent, West Lafayette, IN. "She floats across the pasture."

Owner's comments: "I do love this horse. She is so sweet and willing. I get remarks from other horse owners and trainers that Fabby has a very sweet disposition.

Fabby is so trusting of her handler (me) that her behavior even as a 3 year old in an overwhelming place such as a horse show was exemplary. The judge gave her "7s" on her gaits and impulsion" on her very first test... She definitely has great potential as a dressage horse."

He's got both a lovely trot and canter, and he did two clean lead changes his first time out. His movement is the best I've seen on a foal (and I've seen some very NICE foals), and I think he's going to be an international quality horse, if not a stallion prospect." Esmaralda has been bred back to Fabuleux and is in foal for 2006.

FENDI
(Fabuleux x Point Noir/Pointmaker/Diamont) Breeder/Owner: Kimberly Raimirez, Shakespeare Farm, Santa Cruz, CA.

"At her inspection at River House Hanoverians, judge Gerd Zuther had very favorable comments to say about her as well as my other filly - they are VERY similar. He called them both outstanding foals."
"I am super pleased with both of these fillies! I think Fabuleux improved the croups/hind ends of both mares and one filly is a substantially better mover than her mother. Also, he shortened up the back of one mare."

FLIRTATION
(Fabuleux x EM Geena/Grusus/Westpoint) Breeder: Cindy Hess, Quail Run Farm, Marshall, VA. Owner: Jonathan Stillman. "We're very pleased with the result of this breeding choice. Thanks for bringing Fabuleux to the US. We were confident of our choice for him for this mare last year and that confidence has now proved to be well-founded. I couldn’t be happier. It’s hard to fault her conformation: great shoulder angles, lovely back, strong and well-formed haunches, with an overall sense of refined type. And, she’s gorgeous."

From judge George Walker at the Oldenburg Farm kuering “This filly has excellent hind end drive we breed for in dressage horses, notice how she steps under herself, instead of slipping out from behind, as we see in many dressage horses today.”

"Thanks for bringing such fine German Bloodlines and breeding to the US. Both our fillies have that "in your pocket" personality. I'm sure that comes from Fabuleux. Ginger’s foal has perfect markings, perfect little head, could canter in a teacup. She is a true dressage queen…”

FRAPPUCCINO HCF
(Fabuleux x Rexona/Rubenstein/Barsoi xx) Breeder: Patti Monroe, Cypress, TX. Sold to Kelly Molinari, Wellington, FL.

UPDATE: Owner's comments:My name is Kelly Molinari. I purchased Frappuccino HCF as a 9 month old and have really enjoyed watching him grow. He was of the first Fabuleux foal crop in 2005. He is a beautiful dark bay with movement that just takes my breath away. His personality is amazing; he is so sweet and curious. He is smart as a whip and learns incredibly fast. He is well put together and quite tall, I haven't had a stick on him lately but barefoot I surmise he is every bit of 16.3 hands. I started him in under saddle training around the first of this year. He spent 9 months learning all of the basics with a very patient and kind reining rider in Waller, Tx. In August I brought him to Peter Pletcher's farm for a trial assessment ride. Peter liked him very much and as of Sept 1st he is now with Peter beginning his Hunter training. I am very excited that Peter is working with him because he will really help Frappy mature into the great Hunter I think he has the potential to be. It is amazing what Peter has already taught him in two short weeks. I currently live in Wellington, FL so can't be there to watch the progress first hand. I hope you will enjoy seeing how lovely another beautiful Fabuleux baby is doing. I hope that Frappy can make his debut in the Baby Greens at WEF.

Thank you so much for importing an incredibly correct and beautiful stallion that has blessed me with a wonderful offspring."

Breeder's comments: "He was imprinted at birth and every day there after. He has strong hindquarters, great freedom in the shoulder, with beautiful movement and a beautiful head. His temperament is outstanding. Fabuleux really let his great genes come through. See more pictures of this foal on our website at www.highcirrusfarm.com. I am rebreeding this Rubinstein mare to Fabuleux this weekend."
Frappucino will begin a performance career with his new owners.
