2019 Approx 16hh AES licensed Knabstrupper PATN/LP homozygous

This eye-catching and uniquely marked AES graded stallion with an exceptional temperament is the product of proven performance lines on both sides of his pedigree meaning there is no need to choose between producing a foal for sport or temperament when you can have both - and you get the bonus of spots guaranteed!

Both of Donatello’s parents are Elite graded with the Holsteiner Society and this pairing has also already produced the licensed showjumping stallion Dinoso, currently standing in Dubai. Donatello’s lines include the two Knabustrupper greats Apollon and Conetti Lynghoj as well as prolific showjumping super-sires Landgraf and Cor de la Bryere.

Donatello is well put together with good bone, limbs and feet and drew super comments at his grading for his temperament, feet, paces and conformation.
