Lord Europe

What were 2023 and 2024 2 great years for our stallion Lord Europe and Leonie Richter. They have run many victories and many mega high scores together. He ran his first Light Tour competition in Syke and won it immediately with 73.294%. Together they won a qualification for the Nünberger Burg Pokal with a great score of almost 78%. Together they won the Agravis Cup 2023 in the Weser Ems Halle in Oldenburg with a mega score of 78.578%. Their highlight in December was of course the Final of the Nurnberger burg Bokal in Frankfurt. In this strong competition for 7-year-old dressage horses they became 2nd with a score of 75.366%. The best 3 were allowed to give a free presentation in the evening for the 'Siegerpreis' and the roof really came off at Lord Europe and Leonie. How mega this was and what an atmosphere in this great hall. They received a whopping 95% from the public and jury. What a highlight!

His breeding has been very well-received in recent years. Lord Europe offspring are at the top of several young horse competitions. No fewer than 4 Lord Europe children were selected for the VSN Final 2024, including our young top talents Lamborghini U.S. (Step 7.8 - Trot 9.5 - Gallop 9.5) and Piccobello (Step 8.2 - Trot 9.5 - Gallop 9.0) bred by Henri & Esther van den Bosch van der Bruggen. The talent Perfect Ritme (Lord Europe x Negro) bred by A.G. op 't Hoog is the winner of several young horse competitions under José van Haaren, including the KWPN Young Dressage Talents in Huijbergen.

2022

Lord Europe is a stallion as we would all like to see. A strongly built stallion with a lot of charisma, strong basic gaits and a fantastic canter with a lot of jump. It is located with our colleague and co-owner Andreas Helgstrand at the German location in Syke. This stable is run by Ulf & Eva Möller and Lord Europe is trained there by Leonie Richter.

His first offspring, born in 2020, appeared at the Stallion Inspections throughout Europe this year. One of the striking sons of Lord Europe is our stallion Lamborghini U.S. (sire Sir Donnerhall I). This stallion is approved for Mecklenburg and we purchased half of it from our colleague Paul Schockemöhle. At the Westphalian Stallion Inspection, Lord Europe supplied the strong moving reserve champion (ds. Don Frederic), who was sold in the subsequent auction for € 401,000.-. One of his stallions was also approved in Hannover and two in Mecklenburg. In the Netherlands during the KWPN pre-selection, our special son Pique became mv. Bordeaux designated for the second viewing. Unfortunately, due to a minor injury, we were unable to show him in Den Bosch, but we will certainly present him under saddle later at the KWPN performance test.

2019

Lord Europe was one of the Top Stallions during the Hanoverian Stallion Inspection in 2019. In this extremely strong inspection, he was applauded by the public and jury and declared a Prämien stallion. This winter, Hannover could be seen as one of the strongest Stallion Inspections in the whole of Germany. That it was popular was evident from the auction where it was sold for the enormous sum of € 800,000 to the triumvirate of Joop van Uytert, Paul Schockemöhle and Andreas Helgstrand. We are happy and proud to be co-owners of this stallion!

Father Lord Leatherdale impresses with his Grand Prix sons Everdale, Chippendale and Glamourdale, who achieved very high scores under Charlotte Fry. This in combination with the stallion Boston, who unfortunately died much too early, Siegerhengst 2008, successful under Isabell Werth and who also has a strong record in breeding, including with the Siegerhengst van Westfalen Borsalino. Lord Europe's grandmother, the St.Pr. mare Lasjen P, produces the successful dressage horse Lady Leatherdale and she is a half-sister of the Grand Prix horse Krack (by Krack C) and Lolly Pop (by Lancer III) at 1.45m. successful.

This very strong mother line is anchored with many good dressage and jumping horses that originated with the Limburg breeder Henk van Wylick from Velden. From his foundation mother Iegola (by Ramiro) he bred Bodina W (by Balou du Rouet), who is the mother of no fewer than 3 approved stallions, including Eldorado de Hus (by Diarado).
