Verbier, the acclaimed champion stallion of the Oldenburg licensing, will move into his stallion box at the Dressage Horse Performance Centre Lodbergen (DLZ) and will be available to breeders from 1 March.
The highly elegant, extremely strong-moving son from the first crop of the Celle state stud stallion and stallion performance test winner Von Und Zu sparked a real bidding duel in Ankum/GER, which was only decided at a bid of 720,000 Euros – in favour of the renowned stallion station Lövsta Stuteri from Sweden. Shortly after the bid was accepted, it was clear that the bay stallion, who was highly praised by Oldenburg’s breeding director Bernhard Thoben for his wonderful uphill construction, his great lines, his naturally generous movement and his exemplary lunge work with ideal contact, would initially remain in Germany. “We are very happy to be able to offer this outstanding champion stallion to our breeders,” explained DLZ operations manager Wolfgang Stagge. “And we would like to thank the team at Lövsta Stuteri Stallion Station for the trust they have placed in us.”
The Oldenburg champion stallion Verbier is not the only new addition to the DLZ. In addition to established stallion stars such as For Romance I OLD, Dante Weltino OLD and La Vie, breeders will also have access to the new Oldenburg premium stallion Djacomo (by Desperado-El Capone) and the young star Seraphin (by So Unique-Don Romantic), who was discovered at the Hanoverian licensing.
The DLZ stallions will be presented live on Friday 8 March as part of the Community Stallion Show in Verden. Tickets can be ordered via www.nordwest-ticket.de.
