SIRE: Ragnarok DAM: Donner’s Golden Flower by Donner Bube

PRICE: $30,000+HST CAD

Introducing Rembrandt AG – We are proud to offer this exceptional 2022 gelding, a true standout in every way. Sired by the versatile Hanoverian stallion Ragnarok and out of Donner’s Golden Flower (by Donner Bube, a son of the legendary Donnerhall, and out of a Wodan mare), this talented young horse combines proven performance bloodlines, making him an exciting prospect for a competitive dressage career.

Currently standing 16hh and expected to mature around 16.2hh+, Rembrandt AG already demonstrates three exceptional gaits. His light-footed movement is rare and makes him an exceptional mover, ideal for dressage. His trot is balanced and rhythmic, his canter is elastic and uphill, and his walk is particularly impressive, with an 8-9 score potential due to his significant overreach and correctness when viewed from all angles. This quality of movement makes him a top contender for success in the dressage arena.

While he has shown scope and very good form in the jump chute, we believe his true calling lies in dressage, given his exceptional movement and natural athleticism. His temperament is everything you’d hope for—brave, kind, and eager to please. He is sound, has no vices, and is being offered by his breeder for the first time.

Pedigree highlights:

Ragnarok

Ragnarok, the sire of Rembrandt AG, sustained a lower leg injury as a 2-year-old, ending his sport horse career. Despite this, he has been a successful and widely used stallion, valued for his strong pedigree and exceptional movement.

Ragnarok’s sire, Rubinero, excelled in his 70-day stallion test in Germany, finishing 2nd in dressage and 3rd overall, with perfect 10s for character and rideability. A son of the legendary Rubinstein I, Rubinero passed on exceptional movement, temperament, and rideability, qualities that made Rubinstein I a “stallion of the century,” according to German dressage elite trainer Johann Kinnemann.

On Ragnarok’s dam side, Satsuma, is by the influential Sandro Hit, one of the top dressage producers in the WBFSH rankings. Sandro Hit has sired over 190 licensed stallions and nearly 500 State Premium mares. Notably, many of his top offspring also feature Donnerhall genetics, as seen in Rembrandt AG’s pedigree.

Donner’s Golden Flower

Donner’s Golden Flower boasts an exceptional pedigree. Her sire, the Oldenburg stallion Donner Bube, won his stallion performance test in Germany with scores of 8s and 9s, and his offspring have excelled across disciplines.

Donner Bube is by the legendary Donnerhall, widely regarded as the founding sire of the modern dressage horse. Known for establishing a dominant stallion line, Donnerhall revolutionized dressage breeding. On Donner Bube’s dam side, Pik Bube I, a Hanoverian stallion, is celebrated for producing top performers in both dressage and jumping, particularly when crossed with Donnerhall.

The dam of Donner’s Golden Flower, Lora, is by Wodan, a puissance horse famously ridden in Germany by Franke Sloothaak. Lora also carries a solid approved Arabian line, adding versatility and athleticism to this exceptional pedigree.

TRAINING – If desired, we also offer foundation training and backing services. Our experienced team at Braecrest will ensure he receives a confident start that builds trust and a solid foundation for his future career.

This is a rare opportunity to acquire a talented young horse with the breeding, movement, and temperament to excel in dressage. Rembrandt AG is ready to shine in the right program with someone who will nurture and appreciate his incredible potential.
