Honest and reliable. He has very much willingness to work and he works very well. The walk is big, active and pure in tact. He has much scope in the trot. He has good self carriage and has more than sufficient impulsion and suppleness. He closes very well. The stallion has much impulsion and scope in the canter. The foreleg should have a little more reach. Roman Nature has very much talent for dressage and gives his rider a very good feeling. He jumps with much take-off; he leaves the ground quickly.

Nothing out of the ordinary.

Pedigree information 2000
The Rheinlander bred Roman Nature comes from the same dam line as the popular stallion Florestan I. Both dam and grandmother have excellent conformation. Great grandmother Goldika is a full sister to Warendorfer state stallion Gardist. The pedigree is interesting with the combination of the Grand Prix stallion Rohdiamant, one of the better Rubinstein I sons, and Ehrentusch, whose full brother (Ehrengold, rider Klaus Balkenhol) was a successful Grand Prix horse. Roman Nature is an appealing stallion that has an excellent walk and a good trot and canter.
Type 2000
Roman Nature is an appealing stallion that should have longer lines. The foreleg should be a little longer.
