Desert Storm is a magnificent imported black stallion representing just the very best Olympic bloodlines in the world today. Desert Storm is owned by Greg Dean who is a huge ethusiast. He is a beautiful type with an artistic head and neck. His movement is big and correct with super bend through the hocks and knees. He is a winning eventer who carries amazing dressage genetics. He has, however, now switched to straight dressage. Currently trained and campaigned by Sappho Ransan- Elliott, Desert Storm has progressed through the dressage grades and has now won and placed at Grand Prix level including 3rd at the recent Australian National Dressage Championships. As an eventer he does love to jump and approaches the fences with a careful watchfulness and then bascules up over the fences with perfect technique. As a dressage horse he is a natural and finds piaffe and passage and one-time flying changes and pirouettes just so easy. For the breeding connoisseurs, Desert Storm is bred to win an Olympic dressage medal. He is by Dr Doolittle who is by Donnerhall. Donnerhall represents the number one dressage dynasty in the world. Most of the top 25 horses at the past two Olympics and World Championships carry Donnerhall influence. Rubinstein can be found on Desert Storm’s dam line and this blood is also extraordinary and exerts a whopping 21% influence in the genetics of the top 25 Olympic and World Championship horses. For a breeding buff these are lines to die for. Desert Storm is special on all counts.
