IT'S A BOY!! By the sensational stallion Freestyle (Florestan) out of a beautiful Diamond Hit/Roemer Oldenburg mare. This COLT is very good natured, correct and substantial black/dark bay foal with big movements.

The dam, Dubonnet, was rated Premium as a foal. She has a tremendous walk and nice lofty trot and canter. Her temperament is exceptional. The sire of Dubonnet, Diamond Hit, became Reserve Champion at the 2002 World Championships for Young Dressage Horses in Verden and at the 2002 Bundeschampionate in Warendorf.

As the first KWPN stallion living outside of the U.S. to be awarded the Preferent Predicate by the KWPN, he distinguished himself as one of only three other stallions in the world awarded this status. The breathtaking nature of this wonderful stallion delighted audiences with his larger than life presence, physical beauty, and harmonious work at Grand Prix Level. Roemer’s strength of character, intelligence, beauty, and sensitivity made him a legend in his own time. His breeding record was truly outstanding, and his offspring excel in both jumping and dressage.
