This stunning stallion was purchased from Verden Elite Auction in 1997 as a foal. He is bred from the world’s very best show jumping lines, but his pedigree, coupled with his own modern type, spectacular movement and outstanding temperament, also make him an ideal candidate to sire top-class dressage horses.
At the British Warm Blood Society stallion grading in December 2001, where he was assessed by top international stallion judges from Germany, Parsons Rasputin gained six scores of 8/10, and was awarded 9/10 for his trot, finishing with the second-highest marks of his year.
German judge Dr Hanfried Haring said of him:
This is a stallion of superb quality, breed type and masculinity. He is an excellent mover, with elasticity and very good engagement of the hindlegs. He also jumps with scope and excellent technique.
RAPHAEL, one of the most successful stallions by the legendary RAMIRO Z, is himself one of the top 20 jumping sires of all time (World Breeding Federation for Sport Horses data). Raphael is the sire of: World Cup qualifiers and German Masters winner, Radiator (Rene Tebbel), Ralph (Olympic bronze medallist Sydney); FRH Robinson (World cup finalist in USA); Ramina (Ludger Beerbaum); Rosina (Eric Lamaze, USA), winner, Toronto indoor CSIO; Ricci (Dirk Ahlmann) among many others. He has also sired several international dressage horses. Successful offspring based in Britain include Brookend Raphaella, Raphaels Boy and 2000 Ladies champion, It`s Cool (who is also out of an Argentan mare).
Raphael’s progeny are also noted for their excellent temperaments, good movement , soundness and rideability.
ARGENTAN is renowned as an exceptional sire of mares, and as such features in many top horses` pedigrees. Their success brought him Germany`s coveted Hanoverian Stallion of the Year award in 1994. Among his competing progeny were World Cup winner, Aramis, and show jumping stallion Argentinus (sire of Arko and 2003 World Cup champion, Anka). Argentan`s progeny, which have won more than DM2million worldwide, are noted for their soundness, rideability and athletic qualities.
WEDEKIND, also a State stallion, was another world-renowned jumping sire, and his sire, Ferdinand, was one of the principal founders of show jumpers in Germany
