Hanoverian Breeding News Brentano II, Hanoverian Stallion of the Year 2003
In 1983, Brentano II was born on Dr. Max Schulz-Stellenfleth's farm in Kehdingen. His dam, the Grande-daughter Glocke, descends from one of the most important mare families in Hanover, going back to the Schumann-daughter S449. The stallions Garibaldi I and II, Wolkenstein I and II and Beltain as well as Beauvalais, one of the internationally most successful dressage horses with Beatriz Ferrer-Salat, belong to this equine family. Recently, Beltain caused a sensation in Warendorf: Under Holga Finken, his son Belissimo M became federal champion of three-year-old stallions. After having won the stallion licensing, Brentano II moved to the Celle National Stud. At his stallion performance test, he presented the best dressage performances, and with a final score of 129,97, he ranked second. One year later, he achieved the fourth place at the Federal Championships of the German Riding Horse. He is trained up to advanced dressage level, and he has been belonging to the Celle Quadrilles for years now. Since 1987, he has been stationed in Artland, first in Natbergen, later on at the Ankum insemination station. That is were Brentano II met suitable mares. The chestnut stallion is the sire of 68 state premium mares and 15 licensed stallions. In 2000, his daughter Bona Dea II left the Ratje-Niebuhr-Show as the winning mare. Together with her full sister Bona Dea, she won the Ratje-Niebuhr-Prize. Brentano II supplied totally 19 horses for elite auctions, among them the first-class horses Brentina, Brasseur P, Bandito and Bon Jovi.

The
Celle state stud stallion Brentano II is the Hanoverian stallion of
the year 2003. At the Verden stallion licensing, the chestnut stallion
was awarded this prestigious title. His breeder, Dr. Max Schulz-Stellenfleth,
Stellenfleth, was honoured with a cheque for EURO 10,000.00 and a valuable
Wohlklang-statuette. The Uelzener insurance company always generously
supports this award that honours important Hanoverian stallions who
have a tremendous influence on the breed. 
At
the World Equestrian Games in Jerez, Brentina won the team bronze medal
under the American Debbie McDonald. Her right brother Barclay is just
about to start his international career with Gonnelien and Sven Rothenberger.
In the youngster division, Bernstein and Christian Ritter are a successful
and important equine pair. This year, Bon Jovi was especially successful:
He won the federal championship title of four-year-old horses in Warendorf.
Apart from that, he is the dam's sire of the Brandenburg mare Poetin
who is on everyone's lips after having won the World Breeding Championships
Dressage of Young Horses and the Federal Championships. Brentano II
is a dressage stallion with an exemplary inheritance, and his dressage
breeding evaluation reaches the above-average mark of 137 points. With
his successful offspring, he is one of the sons of the trademark stallion
Bolero who ensured a revival of this bloodline in sport. Thus in October,
Bonaparte (Heike Kemmer) was awarded the most successful dressage horse
of the world.
