good looks and tremendous jumping ability, as a privately owned stallion he did not get a substantial number of mares. Now any pedigree containing his name immediately garners respect. Sacramento Song sired the successful stallion Sandro who despite being a top class jumper and producing such has also become a widely recognized name in modern dressage breeding. Cor de la Bryere, an Anglo-Norman bred in France, was


discovered by the Verband breeding director who had gone to Normandy to evaluate a different stallion for possible use in Holstein. When the two year old “Corde” was let out of his stall, he so impressed the visitors with his elastic and easy going movement that the visitors were smitten. A week later Cor de la Bryere arrived in Holstein looking a bit scruffy in his winter coat, unfit and tired from his journey. The first impression by all who viewed him was one of disappointment. He was correctly built, very easy to ride and his talent over fences was superior. At the end of his first year in Germany he won the Holstein stallion performance test. His first year at stud he bred 70 mares and when the resulting foals arrived the following spring, confirmation of the young sire’s quality was revealed. It would be hard to find any other stallion who contributed so dramatically to the success of a particular breed. Corde created stallion sons by the dozen who in turn have continued the legacy of their great sire. There are few horses in Holstein now which do


not include the name of this phenomenal sire multiple times within their pedigrees. Quidam de Revel


has become the most recent stallion to advance the breeding goal of the Holsteiner Verband. The Selle Français stallion had an illustrious career as a jumper which included being a member of the Bronze Medal Jumping Team in the Olympics in Barcelona. He has been ranked the number one producer of jumpers by the World Breeding Federation for Sport Horses numerous times since 2004. He was approved for breeding to Holsteiner mares in 1993. As of 2010 he had produced 16 approved sons for Holstein, who in turn have produced an additional 15 approved sons as well as a host of top class performance horses. v
