Leeto Z was an exceptional stallion in many ways. Beautiful, correct conformation, powerful and elegant movement, combined with incredible scope made him an all-around exceptional athlete. Although, perhaps his best feature, was his intelligent and engaging personality that not only made him a brave and willing partner, but also a quick learner and simple straight forward ride. At his Canadian Warmblood Stallion Performance Test, he was the highest scoring stallion for temperament and rideablity. From what we can tell, his foals all seem to have his temperament as well. Leeto Z’s sire is Lucino, who is by Landlord Z who is by Landgraf I. Landgraf I became the most important sire of show jumpers in the twentieth century having sired the most money winning show jumping offspring in the World. Leeto z’s mom is by Crack I who is by Corrado I. Through his dam’s grandsire, Corrado I combines the blood of Cottage Son xx with that of Cor de la Bryere. Cor de la Bryere is one of the most influential stallions in modern Warmblood breeding and can be seen in more than 70% of modern Holsteiner bloodlines. He was recognized as the “Reserve Stallion of the Century” second only to Landgraf I. Leeto’s dams sire is Ramiro Z. In 1969, Ramiro (G Ramiro Z) was the absolute top stallion of his performance year and was not only successful with breeding, but also in his jumping career under Fritz Ligges. He excelled in his puissance performances (up to 2.20 m) as well as in competition where speed was essential. Ramiro moved to Studbook Zangersheide in 1979 and went to the Netherlands two years later.

His sire, Graf Grannus, and the sire of his dam, Calypso II, are both excellent producers of show jumping horses. With this pedigree and his own excellent jumping abilities the young Graf Top is at the beginning of a sire career that will no doubt increase the prestige of the Grannus line of showjumpers. His states premium dam consolidates his future by virtue of her legendary sire Calypso II and grandsire Gotthard. There are no better bloodlines in showjumping pedigrees. A lot of significance and expression mark this well-framed, correct stallion of good riding horse type. Grafinas dams sire was foxhunter, who stood most of his life at Spruce Meadows, producing dozens of talented and brave show jumpers.
Lush
Lush is a lovely, intelligent mare. She is not very tall but has a ton of step like her dad. She can be sensitive initially, but give her 5 seconds and her sires temperament comes thru. She loves having a job and has started her ground work and ground driving. No matter when she worked last, she is the first horse at the gate. Loves people and is both curious and willing when learning new things. This could be a stunning junior horse if she is brought along well. Her movement is incredible and she has the scope and technique that her pedigree would suggest.
