Warmblood stallion of the week: Capone (Imp) (Carprilli/Goldtstern/Waldschütz): http://www.brockhurststud.com/stallion.htm
Brockhurst, established by Scott Donner and Georgie Ray is located in the picturesque Adelaide hills. The property is located adjacent to the extensive Kuitpo forest.
We have been watching the amazing development of sport horse breeding in Australia for the last 10 years. Australia can produce International Quality Horses! With this in mind we have developed our small group of broodmares. All with superior bloodlines – Jazz (Fz), Falkland (Fz), Contango II (Imp) and Salute (Imp).
In 2008 the unexpected opportunity to purchase 'Capone' – an imported Oldenburger Stallion – widely known for producing outstanding progeny from all types of mares. As a sire Capone has the essential ingredients for success at the highest level- movement, athleticism and proven dominant genetics. As a sire he has one non-negotiable quality - temperament. This is often referred to as the 'Capone Temperament'.
Since his arrival in June 2008 Capone has lived up to his reputation. He is a joy to handle and an outstanding ride. We are looking forward to his impact on the South Australian Breeding Scene. His Chilled semen will of course be available to breeders throughout Australasia.

This week's featured stallion is the AWHA Approved Stallion Sandrels (Imp) (Sandro Hit/Pik Bube I/Duellschütz) who stands in Mangrove Mountain, New South Wales, with his owners Karen and Martin Waterman at Karingal Equestrian. Born on 19 April, 2001, standing at 175cms. Sandrels undertook his 30 Day Stallion Performance Test in November, 2004, at Neustadt-Dösse, Germany, placing third with Ulf Muller on 8.75. He received the following marks:
- Character: 8.75,
- Walk: 8.00,
- Trot: 8.00,
- Canter: 8.25,
- Rideability: 8.25,
- Jumping: 7.75.
Sandrels is an elegant type, with amazing disposition and showing great trainability. He is very athletic with uphill paces and plenty of jump in the canter. Sandrels has proven himself as a sire with his foals achieving scores greater than 75.00% with ACE Group German assessors. In the ring his progeny are winning in hand championships, being leggy, elegant types with super movement. They are friendly and sensible with Sandrels' lovely nature.
Sandrels' pedigree shows his ability to produce highly competitive showjumpers and eventers as well as dressage horses through his sire line of Sandro Hit (Sandro Song/Ramino/Welt As). Sandro Hit is by the outstanding jumping stallion Sandro Song (Sandro/Gepard/Adlerorden), who is by the well known top sire of showjumping stallions and founder of his own successful sire line Sandro (Sacremento Song xx/Wahnfried/Duhnen). Sandro, who has over 44 graded sons, is also a source of world class dressage horses.

The immediate issues are critical and far-reaching across Queensland. Hundreds of horses are lost, traumatised and injured – entire studs have had their stock simply swept away. Many horses that have been located alive are in immediate need of assistance due to injury and many which have survived, whether injured or unscathed will suffer health issues from contamination of food and water sources and bacterial infections which will build over the coming weeks from mosquito plagues, lesions and skin conditions such as greasy heel and rain scald. Read more from Equestrian Queensland.
Equestrian Australia and Equestrian Queensland have launched the Flood Emergency and Recovery Assistance website to aid those in need of assistance with flood stricken horses during Queensland's current flood crisis.
