Sire Sandro Hit: Sandro Hit has started a new dynasty in the world dressage scene and is rewriting sporting and breeding history. National Young Horse Champion, and Young Dressage World Champion, Sandro Hit, progeny are breaking all price-records, are regularly winning championships and Approval Championships. His offspring completely dominated the 2006 Oldenburg approvals. His success in breeding is no coincidence. His sire Sandro Song was Oldenburger Champion Young Stallion and Main Premium Champion. His dam, elite mare Loretta is as a dominant producer virtually unbeatable. She produced the Reserve World Champion and Reserve German Young Horse Champion Diamond Hit and the highly elegant 1c premium stallion Royal Hit. Her sire Ramino was Stallion Performance Test Champion and later on five times Italian Champion. Welt As from the third generation is one of the most influential producers over the last years, amongst others he sired Olympic gold medallist Bonfire ridden by Anky van Grunsven. Sandro Hit, a strikingly beautiful black horse, brilliant type with quality movement, has a sheer black gene. The supporters of Hanoverian stud found him particularly interesting and once again he brought the highest price at every single foal auction in Verden. Modernity at it's optimum. Dam Very Best was imported from Germany. She was awarded the St Premium status in Germany winning all mare tests she entered. She produced the BWP approved stallion Fal Turro.  Dam's sire - Varus, is an especially lovely type, impressive, and full of vitality. Big outline though very together, endowed with lots of muscle. Very gifted in Dressage, outstanding in Jumping (successful in both class M and S). First class basic paces. Dam's grand sire Vollkorn xx was famed for siring easy to ride, willing, and capable performance horses. He had 248 offspring competing in Dressage and 191 in show jumping. Many Olympic jumpers carried his name in their bloodlines. His progeny won well over one million DM by 1994, and his name continuously shows up in today's competition horses' pedigrees.
