In his stallion test Routinier received 9's for Conformation, Walk, Trot, Canter and Jumping Under Saddle and a 10 for Willingness to Work.
Prince's dam is a really nice mare with a bomb-proof temperament and this big colt has the best I've seen yet. Her full sister was Virginia State Hunter Champion and she has very comfortable gaits and is naturally forward moving. Prince is a modern type with an extravagant uphill trot, very good ground covering walk and a super fluid canter. This colt has FEI written all over him for Dressage or Jumping, or he would excel in the Hunters as well. Currently standing 16.1 hands and should mature to 16.3 to 17+ hands. **Sold - Congratulations to Sallie Spenard. Good luck on your journey to Grand Prix Dressage.


2003 Oldenburg gelding by the fabulous stallion Routinier/Rhodiamant/Rubinstein, out of our very nice mare Romantic Elegance/Son of a Roman XX. Romeo is a wonderful Dressage or Hunter prospect. The sire line is well known for high rideability and trainability and Romeo certainly has inherited all of the great traits his sire line and his dam line passes on. The dam's full sister won the Virginia State Hunter Championship and the sire scored a 10 for Willingness to Work and an incredible 9 for Jumping Under Saddle as well as 9's for Conformation, Trot, Walk and Canter. I believe this talented young horse would excell in either discipline and is suited for the amateur or the professional. He currently stands 16 hands and should mature to 16.2 to 16.3 hands. Romeo is showing great aptitude as he begins his under saddle training. I give him a 10 for his willingness to work everyday and his eagerness to learn.

SOLD Congratulations to Sandy and Cortne Retzlaff. "Romeo is a real gentleman with a great work ethic and a loving heart. With his athletic ability he promises to excel in both Dressage and Jumping.

Their conformation, athletic ability and great minds show the knowledge behind the Hendershot's breeding program. The Horsefeathers Syndicate purchased a hunter and a jumper prospect. Both Rocketeer and Rainier are quiet, easy to train and work with. Sunbridge Farm is excited to add these horses to their training and show program. From the vetting, paper work and transport arrangements the Hendershots are very proffesional and great to work with. Capriole Farm is definitely the place to shop."
