Follower

Information

About - Follower is a half-brother to the stallions Elton (by Escolar), competed by Madeleine Witte-Vrees (NED), and the NRW state stallion Selectric (by Sezuan), successful at Grand Prix level with Manuel Springhetti (AUT).At his Westphalian licensing, Follower delivered a standout performance and was awarded second reserve champion. Westphalia’s breeding director Thomas Münch praised him enthusiastically: “A perfectly constructed young stallion with beautifully balanced proportions. He shows exceptional shoulder freedom, natural suppleness, and impressive carrying power. After the turn in the triangle, he made himself even bigger and improved further—already very impressive. He excels not only in the extensions but also in collection. Simply an outstanding young stallion, just as he stands before us today.”

Sire - His sire Follow Him's Schönweide was a premium stallion who successfully completed highly rated stallion performance tests. For his first crop of foals, he was awarded the Ia main prize by the Oldenburg Association. After achieving top placements in riding and dressage horse evaluations, he went on to compete under Ann-Kathrin Lachemann at M* level dressage, earning scores of 9.0. Several of his sons have been approved for breeding, including the dressage championship finalist Follow Up, ridden by Gonzalo Rodriguez Diaz.

Damline - Follower's dam, Debby, produced two additional approved stallions: Elton (by Escolar), ridden by Madeleine Witte-Vrees, and the NRW state stallion, as well as the Grand Prix-successful Selectric (by Sezuan), ridden by Manuel Springhetti. Debby’s sire is the Holsteiner De Kooning, one of the last direct sons of the legendary Donnerhall to be used in breeding. His Grand Prix-winning offspring include Terhi Stegar’s Grand Prix champion Dalou Shan. Among his twelve sons is the DSP Kör winner Del Re, who competed successfully up to St. Georges level.
