L'Oreal (Chantalle) is a fancy 2016 Dutch Warmblood filly with a big personality and a bold attitude. We feel that with her bloodlines and athleticism, Chantalle will be an ideal FEI prospect. We expect Chantalle to mature around 16.2 hands. 

 

The sire, Diamond Stud offers the most powerful Oldenburg bloodlines of today. His phenomenal sire Diamond Hit is a Champion many times over, including titles earned at the World Championships for Young Horses and the Bundeschampionat. The German Ministry of Agriculture honored Diamond Hit as the Best Licensed and Performance Tested stallion of all breeds in 2001. Diamond Hit is sired by international Grand Prix stallion Don Schufro. Diamond Hit's dam, Elite Mare Loretta, is also the dam of legendary Sandro Hit as well as the Premium Stallion Royal Hit. In March 2009, Diamond Stud successfully completed his 30 day test at Silver Creek Farms where he was the highest scoring stallion in his walk, trot & ride-ability and 2nd highest scoring stallion for canter & jumping. This noble black stallion presents a striking appearance with his uphill build and all black coat, complete with four white stockings and a star. His movement is powerful, supple and athletic. Equally impressive is his gentlemanly demeanor in the barn and with people.

 

The dam, Chiquita Briar is a 16.3 hand Swedish Warmblood mare who at her inspection scored 8.5’s for her head, neck and body. She also scored 8’s on her trot and type. Chi Chi was trained to 3rd level dressage. Chichi was shown with her dam at Dressage At Devon in 2002 and was 4th in the 2002 Fillies class. Chi Chi has fantastic conformation with a long, elegant neck which she has passed this onto her three foals. Her movement is breathtaking, elastic shoulder with great reach and an active hind leg that reaches well under her body. She has gone through the SWANA inspection and inspectors say: this mare needs to be bred time and time again as she will produce top foals for the US. Chi Chi’s dam, Chanel was a Swedish Diploma mare and was also Elite Eligible with the American Hanoverian Society. Chanel was the Champion Non-Hanoverian mare at her inspection with an overall score of 7.5.

 

Chi Chi's sire, Briar has over 30 International Grand Prix wins including 3 Olympic games, 6 World Cups, 6 times Swedish Champion, and 9 time ranked #1 horse in the World by the World Federation of Sport Horse Breeders. He is the only horse both as a breeding stallion or individual competitor to ever accomplish this feat. Briar has had the longest career of any Sporthorse on record and competed at the International GP level for a record 10 years with no unsoundness in mind or limb. He was ranked as the #1 Happiest Competition Horse in the World by both International Judges and fellow competitors alike. Briar has produced many approved sons in Europe, Australia, Scandinavia and North America. Many of these are currently or previously competing to the Grand Prix levels in both Dressage and Jumping.
