Free-To-Be – Fidertanz / SPS Don Bosco / SPS Prince Orac xx, 2008
MSB Free-To Be, born here at SunnyDays, and has returned to join the broodmare band. She has always been a sweet, charming and affectionate girl (see weanling picture, at side), with lots of presence and good movement.
“Freebie” – is by “Altpremiumhengst” Fidertanz (Fidermark / SPS Ravallo), who was selected Licensing Champion, and 30-day Test Champion. Fidertanz then earned the title 2005 Reserve Bundeschampion, scoring 9.5 for conformation, 9 for trot, 9 for canter, 8 for walk , and two 9.5s for rideability. His offspring have been top notch, including many licensed sons, States Premium daughters, Bundeschampion and World Young Horse Champion finalists, plus high priced auction foals and riding horses.
Free-To-Be’s dam is our own SPS Ditana (Don Bosco / SPS Prix d’Amerique), a beautiful mare who is from an excellent damline. She contributes the performance genes of Donnerhall, Pik Bube and Ramiro, together with the refinement of Thoroughbred sires Prince Orac xx and Shogun xx.
We were delighted to welcome Freebie’s 1st foal by Fabregas (Florencio / DeNiro) born May 18, 2014. He was selected Champion Dressage Foal 2014 from 22 quality foals, at his German Hanoverian Inspection. A full brother “Flying Machine” was born in May 2015 – with the same movement, flash and conformation as his older sibling. See the Youngstock page for links.
In October 2016, Freebie left to join the Little River Hanoverians mareband in Nova Scotia. Downsizing is painful, but I know this is a good move for our Freebie, who will deliver her third Fabregas foal, for Shannon, next May 2017. Video was taken when Freebie returned to SunnyDays in September 2013.Pictured at right, Freebie on her 1st day in her new home, Little River Hanoverians.
