Sir Donnerhall I – Fürst Heinrich I – Brentano II
Color: Black

||||||||||||||
This charismatic, handsome black stallion offers three high-quality gaits and is quickly building an impressive competition record. He has competed the last two years at the USEF Young Horse Championships and was ranked 2nd at his Stallion Sport Test with all categories earning an 8.5. In 2023, he ranked 8th nationally & 1st for All-Breeds awards in the FEI Five-Year olds and was 5th nationally and 2nd for All-Breeds at First Level with a median score of 75.81%. His walk is a true highlight and we anticipate he will add length of leg and an uphill frame for his foals which will arrive in the spring of 2024.
Sir Real is by the influential sire Sir Donnerhall I who is currently ranked #3 in the world on the WBFSH Dressage Sire Rankings. Sir Donnerhall has over 100 licensed sons, 200 premium mares, and more than 200 offspring that have competed at the upper levels. Backing up the genetics of this line include the legendary stallions Sandro Hit and Donnerhall in a combination that was particularly effective and utilized with great success in breeding for top dressage athletes.
Sir Real’s damsire, Fürst Heinrich, was Champion of his 70-Day Test, Reserve Champion at Bundeschampionship Final, and World Young Horse Champion as a 5-Year old. His influence as in breeding is strongly felt with numerous state premium mares and over 40 approved sons. Sir Real’s maternal granddam Bella has produced three licensed stallions and grandsire Brentano II has sired top dressage horses.

Breeding Information
Breeding Fees & Contracts
Mare Information
At Hilltop Farm we want to work closely with you and your veterinarian to ensure a successful breeding season and are available for questions at any time. The following information includes some basic suggestions as well as reminders on a few requirements for your breeding contract.
A Breeding Soundness Exam including a uterine culture is recommended, but not required, for all mares prior to breeding. If a mare fails to settle after two breeding cycles, Hilltop Farm will require a culture and cytology to be done at that time prior to any additional shipments of semen. We always recommend your vet checking your mare post-breeding to confirm ovulation. If a mare hangs on to a follicle longer than expected, it can be less expensive to ship additional semen than it would be to breed a second complete cycle. Getting your mare settled in foal is just the beginning. We recommend multiple pregnancy checks to help prevent cases of twins, misdiagnosed pregnancies, or lost time in the breeding season. The following schedule is what we recommend; only the first and fourth checks however are required by your breeding contract.
- 1st check (Required): 14-16 days post ovulation – optimum time for vet to pinch off a twin if more than a single ovulation is noted.
- 2nd check (Recommended): 28 days post ovulation – to confirm a viable pregnancy as the heartbeat normally appears by day 25.
- 3rd check (Recommended): 35-40 days post ovulation – to confirm maintained pregnancy prior to endometrial cup formation. Mares that slip foals early may not come back into heat.
- 4th check (Required): 55-60 days post ovulation – final confirmation of pregnancy in its critical first trimester.
Following your mare’s 14-16 day pregnancy check, please have your vet complete the Mare Breeding Passport received with your semen shipment and return it to Hilltop Farm. Any changes in pregnancy status after the 14-16 day check must be communicated to Hilltop Farm immediately. This Passport is used in all stallion reports to various breed registries and is used to generate a Breeding Certificate so that you can register your foal.

Registration & Futurity Information
Your mare’s registration and approval play just as important of a role as the stallion’s approvals when determining registration options for your foal. Please keep in mind that in order to register your foal with a specific association, your mare may first need to be presented to that registry for approval. In addition to the registries a stallion is approved with, there may be additional registration options based on your mare’s eligibility and the stallion’s credentials. If you are confused at all on registration options for a potential foal, please speak with Hilltop Farm and your breed registry PRIOR to booking your breeding.
