The modern pedigree combines the mare families of Donau and Herbstlicht and her dam produced the approved stallion Heidsieck by Tanzmeister in 1999, which has started a very promising dressage career.

Future jewel for dressage and breeding, this mare has a wonderful combination of the genes of the leading sires Sixtus, Kennedy, Michelangelo and Ibikus. If you look into the 3rd generation you will also find outstanding bloodlines for dressage and for high level breeding too.

Donauwalzer was awarded a Premium at his grading and is the most impressive son of Elite stallion Sixtus. This wonderful chestnut stallion is very noble, athletic and shows the most powerful and elastic trot with a wonderful walk and uphill canter. His mother Donauflut by Ibikus is one of the youngest of her legendary father and founded her own branch of the famous Donau-family. Grandmother is Donauflamme a very typical daughter of the world famous sire Habicht. Donauwalzer represents an outstanding line breeding to Ibikus and to Habicht, two of the most famous sires for breeding and competition within the last 50 years.

Michelangelo founded besides Mahagoni the second line of the unforgotten Pastur xx. Inselkonig, who was a popular Sire in the Hannoverian breed and the American Trakehner breed too.

The Herbst-family counts among the most successful, valuable and proven families of the whole breed, producing great Sires such as Herzzauber, Herzkristall, Herzbube, Herbstruf, Herzkonig, Herbststurm and great dressage horses like the Olympic star Hirtentraum.

By breeding her to Arentino, we believe in consolidating the genes of great riding horses such as the producer Ibikus.

This is a very stunning mare with very powerful movements, and we where right about her foals. They are good looking with three very good gaits being very powerful in trot just like their mother. Herbstwolke was eight time Champion shown in hand in year 2004 (two being Overall Supreme Champion), she was also awarded a Premium at her grading with an amazing score of 57 points making her the Champion of the grading

Herbstwolke sadly died in June 2009
