Landmarck, American Holsteiner Horse Association (AHHA) Approved Stallion http://www.haremhills.com/photos/LandmarckFoals

Landmarck is a beautiful example of the finest bloodlines in Holstein. His grandsire, Landgraf I, is the world’s leading sire of sporthorses with progeny earnings of almost $7,000,000 and his damsire, Furioso II, is second on the list with progeny earnings of almost $5 million. In Germany, Lavall I is proving increasingly valuable as a sire or damsire of approved stallions and top level competitors. Madam, Landmarck’s granddam, carries the popular Sacramento Song xx/Wahnfried cross that produced numerous other dams of approved stallions, as well as Olympic showjumper, Sandro.

Landmarck competed successfully in showjumping at the 4’6” level and in dressage to second level with his amateur owner rider. While preparing for his Grand Prix jumping career, he contracted EPM, a non-contagious protozoal disease which can affect coordination. He was sidelined for several years and although he has now completely recovered, it was decided to retire him to the breeding shed. When he gets the chance he still free jumps just for fun. As always, he is very sure with his mares and had a 100% conception rate in 2006.

Landmarck consistently passes on his correct front end, topline, good bone and elastic gaits. He produces ideal sporthorses for amateur and junior riders that are kind, focused, and easily trained. Most of Landmarck’s offspring are ridden by amateurs, including one in the Canadian Young Riders program doing upper level dressage and one doing preliminary level eventing. He works especially well with pure and part bred thoroughbred mares, adding height and movement. In addition, because Landmarck’s pedigree has no Cor De La Bryere and Landgraf I/Ladykiller only one time, he remains an excellent breeding choice for mares with multiple crosses to those lines. Landmarck is available to outside mares with shipped fresh semen for a stud fee of $1200 LFG which includes the first collection.  He is fully approved and activated with the American Holsteiner Horse Association.  Contact us for a copy of hs breeding contract.
