Lineage:
Richelshagen is a son of the world famous sought after dressage sire Rubinstein!!! Rubinstein lines feature in many of the top dressage horses in the world today. Rubinstein needs no introduction as one of the worlds all time great dressage sires. Rubinstein lines are highly sought after all over the world and this line features in many of the top horses today. Rubinstein had 40 wins at Grand Prix level, was a member of the 1996 Olympic team, sired 89 state premium mares and 66 approved stallions and was the father of top auction horses and Grand Prix winners, sadly he departed from the equestrian stage in June 2000, aged 14, much too early! In this short time he made an incredible impact on dressage breeding. His semen did not freeze well and therefore the horses that carry his blood today are of even higher value.
Rubinstein was born into a dressage Royal Family. His dam is "Antine", full sister to two Olympic dressage stars "Amon" & Dr Reiner Klimkes famous horse "Ahlerich". Rubinstein is by the stallion Rosenkavalier who is by Romadour II, who is the sire of World and Olympic champion, Rembrant. Rubinstein 1 is the sire of Relevant, Rusty, Rhodiamant, Royal Diamond to name but a few.
The eulogies to this brilliant black horse include "a sire of the century", & "On the wings of Olympus" & "Bred strictly according to the golden recipe". Rubinstein was quite simply one of the best dressage sires to have ever lived. Richelshagens dam Linore a Hannoverian mare is also exceptional. She is by the top Hannoverian stallion Luciano. Richelshagen's dam line is based on the breeding perfection of a Hanoverian blood line, which goes back to the foundation sire Der Löwe xx via Luciano-Lukas-Lugano. His dam Linore is also dam to another approved stallion in Germany Rodomo by Ramino. She is also dam to many State Premium awarded mares including Liberta, Lilli Lottofee, La Ola, Fabiola and Rosenfee.
Luciano was known for heritate highly talented performance horses in both dressage and Jumping. He had around 10 approved sons and his blood is highly sought after particularly in dam linages. The dam sire Luciano, who distinguished himself as a model athlete of the very first order, was also the full-brother of the dressage derby winner Marshall 55/Karin Rehbein. Apart from a number of approved sons such as Lord Nelson, Lincoln. Lundberg, Lurioso, Ludendorf and Ly sant, Luciano also presented the successful international competition sports horse Lorenzo 40/Paul Schockemohle, who won the English Showjumping Derby in Hickstead. His blood is highly sought after and proven to produce top performance horses and found in many good dressage stallions pedigree, including Depardieu. Duellant a top class Hannoverian stallion of the "D" line, is sire of the DLG mare and state premium mare Duellmodell (Dam of Wenka - in Donnerschwees linage, Dam of Linore in Richelshagens breeding) became world renown as a maker of dressage horses.
