STARNBERG (imp)

Further Information

Starnberg was imported by Pamela Maine at the end of 2009 and is simply an astonishing individual. Pamela has a more than full-time job in the centre of Sydney and so Starnberg is now stabled here at the Newcastle Equestrian Centre.

Starnberg is the most glorious type with seriously correct conformation. He is a licensed stallion, having passed the Westphalian 30 day test in Germany. Starnberg has a very soft and round way of going. His walk has a deliberate walk march rhythm, which is pretty well so steady that it is unflappable. The trot is simply mesmerising with a wonderful, mechanical swing and rhythm. He has a natural moment of suspension and is very beautiful with the bend in his knees and hocks. The trot is spectacular. The canter is magically up in front, is very round and very soft. Starnberg has a natural affiliation with collection and although the canter is very bouyant, he is already able to produce a short canter conducive to canter pirouettes and the most collected Grand Prix movements. All the while he is ever so light and steady in the rein contact and naturally maintains a very steady head carriage. Starnberg will be entering the Australian dressage competition arena in mid-2010 and we expect him to be a run away success.

Starnberg has already stood one season in Germany and we do have a video of his very first foal which is sensational.
