Landkönig is a 16.3 hh, bay, elite Hanoverian stallion,
4 socks, a star and snip.
Landkönig
completed his 100 day test at Adelheidsdorf as a 3 yr old and
was 7th out of 50. 118.10 points overall with a 9.5! for stadium
jumping 8's for willingness to work, character, temperament
and the walk. Overall balanced on his jumping and ridability
scores. The Hannoveraner Jahrbuch Hengste 2005 lists Landkönig with a jumping breeding value of 132 putting him ahead of Ritual, Drosselklang, Espri, Escudo II, Grosso Z and many other top German Grand Prix producers! Landkönig is in fact the highest rated jumper listed, standing in the US.
Landkönig has produced, from his first foal crop, a licensed Hanoverian stallion son and in 2002 broke the record for producing the
highest selling jumper ever in the history at the Hanoverian Elite auctions
in Germany. Lantinus, a 4 yr old gelding sold for Euro 215,000 also setting
the record price for the Hanoverian auction year, something never done by a
jumper!
Landadel was one of the most popular and successful stallions of his
generation who sadly died at a young age in 1996. Hardly a second sire
deserves the label "foundation sire" as much as he does. His uniform
transmission of type, nobility, color, movement and predisposition for
jumping is second to none. He produced multiple licensing champion
stallions, SPS mares, grand prix offspring and his presence is strongly
noticed in the recent Federal and European championships. Landadel is 5th in
the Hanoverian index with offspring over $30.000 earnings even though he is
a Holsteiner.
Landkönig's dam Luna has an evenly impressive production
record. It would be hard to find a stallion with a dam line
that has a stronger production record!
 Landkönig's Dam line has produced 7 licensed
stallions. These sons include Grundsteins Erbe, sold to Italy for DM 450,000 as a jumper, and his full sibling,
Grundsteins Erbe II, a licensed and approved dressage
stallion owned by "Horses Unlimited". Others are Groenland, a breedshow champion at
Devon; Gratulata, a World Cup Qualifier with Michael Matz; Gina, a breeding champion of Luxemburg; her
daughter winner of the Zangersheide breeding championships; Genua and Gentleman, Bundeschampionat participants.
A Drosselklang filly and a stallion producing Grundstein filly from Luna
sold to Paul Schockemöhle. Two offspring sold in the Vechta auction for over
DM 100,000
As all these G horses are by Grundstein I, so he should be just
right for your Grundstein mares.
 For
a period of time, Landkönig was ridden and shown by a 14
yr old girl. Even with her he had a couple thousand DM in show
winnings.
Anybody breeding to him is in good company as Herbert
Meyer, Chef D'Equipe of the German equestrian team,
Körung judge for the new Oldenburg jumping registry, bred
his best mare Gratia and several others to Landkönig.
From his first foal crop Landkönig produced a licensed Hanoverian son and 10
of his offspring have been selected so far for the Hanoverian Elite and
riding horse auctions in Verden, Germany, including Lantinus who set a record
for 2002 and sold for the highest price ever achieved by a jumper at the
Elite auctions in the Hanoverian Niedersachsen Halle. All this was achieved
while he was only 9 years old himself and at the beginning of his breeding
career.
Landkönig is fully licensed and approved for breeding
by The American Hannoverian Society. The German Hannoverian
verband (AHS & VHW) Oldenburg/ISR, AWR, AWS, approved by
SWANA for Swedish mares, and nominated for the International
Jumper Futurity.
His semen is excellent and EVA negative. Fee $1,777 LFG, booking
fee of $477 included.
Elite, performance, multiple mare and early booking discounts
