Victories at will
Once again, our Oldenburg Ic main premium winner Fair Deal dominated the shows and auctions with his offspring. In sport, he shone with serial victories with Linda Casper/GER in tests for young dressage horses, including the Moritzburg Young Horse Championships and the Saxon Regional Championships, which also qualified him for the German Championships, where he received 9.0 for trot, rideability and overall impression. Fair Deal made his debut in sport as bronze medallist at the Oldenburg Regional Championships in Rastede/GER after winning the riding horse test at the Moritzburg Young Horse Competition. He was very well placed at his stallion performance test in Schlieckau/GER with a final score of 8.52. His scores of 9,0 for both trot and canter and 9.25 for rideability were particularly noteworthy.
His sire, the elite stallion Franklin, began his career as KWPN Champion Stallion, winner of his stallion performance test in the Netherlands, finalist at the World Championships for young dressage horses and has been placed in international Small Tour competitions. Ridden by Malin Wahlkamp-Nilsson/SWE, he has since been successful in Grand Prix. 20 of his sons have been licensed, including Kaliber/Andrea Woodard/USA, successful in Grand Prix, the Reserve Champions Franklin’s Love PS and Kadans, the winner of the Ravn’s Trophy, Slangerupgaard’s Flottenheimer, and the Swedish stallion performance test winner Knockando VH. He has produced numerous offspring who are successful in sport, amongst whom Fendi/Sönke Rothenberger/GER, Louisdor Prize winner, victorious in the Aachen Nations Cup and German Vice Champion, Elektra di Fonte Abeti/Juliette Ramel/SWE, placed in international St. Georges competitions, and Francis Drake OLD/Leonie Richter/GER, placed eighth at the World Championships for young dressage horses, particularly stand out.
His dam, Fairytale PS, is the full sister of our Ib main premium winner Fürst Toto (by Fürstenball) and the half sister of the licensed stallion Donier (by De Niro). She also produced our German and Oldenburg Regional Champion, double stallion performance test record winner and main premium winner Escanto PS (by Escamillo). A half brother of his dam Fairytale PS, Benjamin’s Button (by Baron), was sold at a high price at the P.S.I. Auction.
His dam’s sire, Fürstenball, himself a record-priced auction foal, Oldenburg licensing and main premium winner, German Champion, finalist at the World Championships for young dressage horses and victorious at advanced (S) level up to Prix St. Georges, is already in 14th place in the WBFSH ranking of the world’s best dressage sires.
His great-grand-sire, Totilas, won double gold at the European Championships in Windsor/GBR in 2009 and triple gold at the World Equestrian Games in Lexington/USA in 2010. In 2010, he also won the World Cup final in ’s-Hertogenbosch/NED. Several times he set new records in Grand Prix.

His great-great-grand-dam Sunny-Girl produced the licensed stallion Lord Schufro OLD (by L’Espoir), Regional Reserve Champion and placed twice at the German Championships, and the premium stallion Fürsten Hit (by Fürstenball). Her daughter, Funny-Girl (by Fürst Romancier), produced the licensed stallion San Bordeaux (by San Amour I).
