Sired by Total Hope (IFS) out of Bradgate Park Olympia. Total Hope is the result of crossing the best dressage mare in the world (top of the FEI rankings for years, Olympic and world cup gold medalist) and the best stallion in the world. Why not combine these talented genetics with my best bred mare by Ferro (olympic silver medalist). Ferro, Rubinstein, Totilas and Donnerhall are the four most important dynasties in producing Olympic dressage horses in the world at this point in history. Bred in the purple for FEI dressage, this foal will be nothing short of spectacular. Will be beautiful, black and expected to mature 16.2hh

And both times,  he won in an absolutely impressive manner – clearly ahead of the strong competition.
