STALLION OF THE YEAR 2011: BLUE HORS ROMANOV
Danish Warmblood Stallion Licensing 10-13 March in Herning
Spokes person of the Danish Warmblood licensing committee, Poul Graugaard, revealed the
name of the new Stallion of Year during the stallion licensing on Sunday afternoon. Last year
Blue Hors Romanov was awarded HRH Princess Benedikte’s Challenge Prize and this year he
has been proclaimed Stallion of the Year 2011.
Blue Hors Romanov is one of the most used sires in Denmark and he owns a large share of the
incredible success that Danish Warmblood has achieved in recent years as one of the leading
studbooks producing dressage horses.
He was born in year 2000 and bred by Mrs Harli Seifert, Germany. He is one of six licensed full
brothers, among others “Rubin Royal” and “Blue Hors Rockefeller”. Blue Hors Romanov himself
has sired a number of licensed sons like “Skovens Rafael” (double young horse world
championship finalist), “Tailormade Red Rebel”, “Blue Hors Rosoff”, “Rolan” and “Rosetti”. He
has sired 196 graded mares in Danish Warmblood of which nearly 70 % are main studbook
mares. One of his most outstanding offspring is the 2009 world champion for 5-year-old
dressage horses “Hønnerups Driver”.
Sincerely,
DANSK VARMBLOD
