Sire Dr Doolittle

.

DON LAURIES HIT

This particularly beautiful and blood made son of the very much appreciated German dressage horse inheritor Dr. Doolittle is a special acquisition for dressage breeding. Don Lauries Hit conducts the blood of the absolute best dressage inheritors of this time. His father, Dr.Doolittle, is a son of Donnerhall, the best German dressage sire ever, and the thoroughbred Lauries Crusador xx. With, as grandfather the very interesting Trakhener stallion Argument. Don Lauries Hit’s mother is a daughter of two times World Champion Sandro Hit, from a mother of Fugger, which is a descendant of the very much appreciated stud Frusta II, and Arsenik. Don Lauries Hit comes from the fine German mare-line "Schluppera" which is a branch of the "Friedenkatzchen" line. This line posseses much Trakhener blood which stands out with al lof these fantastic dressage stallions, Dr Doolittle, Donnerhall, Lauries Crusador xx, Argument, Sandro Hit, Fugger, Frustra II and Arsenik.

 The Sire, Dr. Doolittle combines the bloodlines of the legendary Donnerhall, with those of Laurie's Crusador, a breed-shaping Thoroughbred stallion destined to play a primary role in warmblood pedigrees. A dressage specialist with a shiny black coat, Dr. Doolittle possesses three exquisite basic paces and top-class rideability values. The blending of two of the most significant dressage makers of our day--Donnerhall and Lauries Crusador xx--support this hope for even the most demanding. Argument, a black Trakehner in the third generation, well-known as the sire of the top dressage horse, Antony FRH / Isabell Werth, adds special bloodlines. The dam line is based on the mare, Jägerherz (by Jägersmann - Lorlot). Dr. Doolittle is closely related to the stallions, Acaro and For Paragon and also the 1980 DLG Champion Mare, Ascona (by Argentan I - Seefischer). This performance-oriented dam line also produced the sires, April-Scherz, Dagobert, Don Vino, Gold Dollar, Rheingau, Servus, Vagabund, Van Eyck, Van Gogh, Vasall, Volltreffer, Weinstock and Westgote as well as the internationally successful jumpers, G-Line and Werra 24 (both Nick Skelton / GB) and Dünenelfe / Gerd Wiltfang and Luigi / Otto Becker.

 The Damsire, Sandro Hit absolved his stallion performance test in Medingen in 1997 and in 1999 he became federal champion six-year old dressage horses as well as world champion juvenile horse in Arnheim. He has meanwhile been trained up to advanced class.Right from the outset, Sandro Hit set standards not only in sport, but also in breeding. His first crops of foals are convincing by their exceptionally aesthetic imprint of type as well as their outstanding motions. His son Sandrit was the 1999 approval winner in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, while Sommerhit was runner-up in Berlin-Brandenburg and Sandro Ace became vice-champion in Oldenburg. Sunny Boy in turn, was awarded a premium in Oldenburg, whereas Sommeliere likewise belonged to the approval Oldenburgers of 1999. In the year 2000, Sandro Hit made the headlines once more: His Brandemburg bred daughter Poetin won the Federal Championship of Three-year old mares and geldings under Hans-Heinrich Meyer zu Strohen. A number of his offspring attained peak prices at different German auction sites, including inter alia, his daughter Starlet, who at DM 140,000 was the top lot of the collection of broodmares at the 2000 Vechta spring auction. On top of that, two Sandro Hit progeny were awarded the desired status “approved” at the Oldenburg approval, as well as at the NRW approvals.
