extremely significant Arabian stallion Fetysz. The Arabian bloodlines added
refinement and beauty to the breed. Maharadscha was said to be, "extraordinarily
beautiful, expressive stallion with Arabian stamp, but in a large format.

Willi Schultheis and Don Juan. These were very talented dressage horses. In
Hanover, he is the sire of such great breeding stallions as Duft I, II, Duden
I, II, Durban, Dunkel, Derby, Dezember and Davos. Even with all of these great
stallions coming from this magnificent stallion, it is unusual for his genotype
to be in the paternal line. It is most often found in the maternal line of
horses today which is a great pity because it means that this line will soon
be lost. One of the most exemplary pedigrees of which Duellant is the damsire
is of Grande with Duellant being the sire of the State Premium mare Duellfest,
Grande's dam. "With Grande you would say he is by a showjumper out of
a dressage mother line, and yet he was a genius as a stallion."

of the D-Line. This branch was known for producing mainly show jumpers. The

of the Dutch Warmblood through her two sons, Senator by Paladijn (different
from the Hanoverian Senator listed below) who was the grandsire of the great
WPN stallion, Nimmerdor. Senator's younger half brother, Sinaeda, by Camillus
produced many sons who became approved stallions and his name is found in
the pedigrees of many of the top jumpers including Britain's Marius and Apollo.
Senator-
Senator founded one of the most important sire lines in jumping. Two of Senator's
best sons were Sesam I and Sender. Sesam's famous son Servus is an all-round
sire of competion horses. He is the sire of Grand Prix dressage horses Slibovitz,
Schiwago and Spartan and was one of the top ten money-earning sires around
1990. He is also the sire of famous jumpers as well with Tric Tac and San
Antonio just to name a few. Senator's line is also doing well in Denmark through
a mare by the Sender son Seelöwe out of a Der Löwe mare.
