Franzmann

Franzmann was celebrated as the undisputed champion stallion in March 2023. Born in the Netherlands on the island of Texel, notorious for its dressage horse breeding, he brings the advantages of German and Dutch genetics together in ideal symbiosis. His
charm and nobility, his supple movements that just flow through his body and his optimal working attitude are the heritage of his
sire Fürstenball. At the same time, he is able to move powerfully with great agility and freedom of shoulder, attributes that may be attributed to his great dam's sire Jazz and the Dutch background that followed. Whether on the pavement, on the lunge or in free running, at the Showcase of the Best, Franzmann impressively announced his claim to the winner's sash at every opportunity. His sire, Fürstenball, won the licensing and main premium in Vechta, was a Bundeschampion and was victorious
in the dressage ring up to advanced (S) level. As the sire of more than 90 licensed sons and five Bundeschampions, he is one of the most successful sires of his generation. He carried the legacy of his father Fürst Heinrich, who died much too early, into a new era. Among many internationally successful offspring of Fürstenball, the Team World Champion Heiline's Danciera/Carina Cassøe Krüth (DEN) stands out.
The dam Fyorieta Texel is a daughter of the Dutch Jazz, who himself was successful in the Grand Prix arena and as a breeding stallion was listed several times in the WBFSH ranking as the most successful dressage sire in the world. His daughter Fyorieta Texel proved her talent with a strong KWPN performance test under saddle (IBOP), scoring 80.0. She is the maternal half-sister of four dressage horses successful at advanced level, including the Grand Prix-placed Dark Knight Texel (by Wynton). On her dam's side, Fyorieta Texel leads with Caritas,
the half-breed Nabuur and the Thoroughbred Pastrocio xx. Franzmann's mare family, which also produced the Grand Prix horses Opartout Texel and Belle Lady Texel, has already produced many breeding highlights.
