VJENTO – A Successful Start to 2025

The start of 2025 could hardly have been better for VJENTO. He completed the short aptitude test for dressage in Vechta at the end of January with a final dressage score of 8.56, achieving the third-best result in the examination—further increasing the excitement for what lies ahead.

Individual Scores:

• Trot: 9.00
• Canter: 8.60
• Walk: 7.50
• Rideability: 8.80
• Willingness to Perform: 9.00

A Spectacular Career Start

VJENTO’s career began with spectacular performances at the Hannoveraner licensing in 2023, where he returned to his stable in Hünxe as a premium stallion.

His first victory in a young horse dressage test in October 2024 under Lisa Lindner with a score of 8.4 already demonstrated his extraordinary talent. Particularly remarkable: His trot was awarded a perfect 10.0 at the licensing—another clear indicator of his potential.

Sire Valdiviani – Sporting Success at the Highest Level

His sire Valdiviani placed 5th in the final of the World Championships for Young Dressage Horses (7 y.o.) in Ermelo 2023 under Isabell Werth.

In 2024, the Veneno son out of a Fidertanz dam was victorious up to S* Intermediaire II.

Valdiviani impresses not only in sport but also as a top sire—his offspring have already been sold for high prices at auctions.

Since Valdiviani will remain focused on his sporting career in 2025, the nine-year-old is available exclusively via frozen semen. This makes us all the more excited to offer his highly talented son VJENTO via fresh semen for breeding.

Dam’s Sire Sir Donnerhall I – A Proven Producer of Champions

Dam’s sire Sir Donnerhall I—the sire of 128 licensed sons—is a son of the legendary Sandro Hit, whose offspring have earned a lifetime winnings total of nearly €2 million.

Sir Donnerhall in Numbers:

• 209 licensed sons
• Bundeschampion & Vice World Champion (5 y.o.)
• Trained up to Grand Prix level

His dam, Contenance D, is a daughter of Donnerhall, who achieved extraordinary success both as a sport horse with Karin Rehbein and as a stallion.

A Proven Maternal Line of Success

VJENTO’s maternal lineage is steeped in success.

His dam, St.Pr.St. Sri Lanka (Sir Donnerhall – Riccio), completed an excellent mare performance test and produced the Hanoverian premium mare Veluwe, who was nominated for the Herwart von der Decken Show and awarded 1e premium there.

His granddam St.Pr.St. Rafaela (by Riccio) also produced:

• Santander (by Sandro Hit) – Bundeschampionat finalist & Grand Prix successful up to 74%

His great-granddam Donna-Rafaela produced Fürstin Fee, who was victorious up to St. Georg level, when paired with Fürst Fohlenhof.

Other top horses from this maternal line include:

• Rom (by Revolution) – Hanoverian premium stallion
• Solo Mio (by Stanford) – Premium stallion Verden 2016, World Championships finalist for Young Dressage Horses, Grand Prix successful up to 74%

Great Expectations for VJENTO

The genetics, outstanding potential, and proven performance of VJENTO create high expectations. The anticipation is even greater for his first foal crop, set to arrive in 2025.
