A uniform collection of more than sufficiently developed riding type foals which overall should have longer-lined conformation. The trot has sufficient stride length, but the hind legs should step more resolutely under the body in the trot transition. The canter has sufficient stride length. The neck remains slightly too upright in movement, thus somewhat compromising body use and suppleness.
Breeding recommendation (based on the performance test and offspring inspection)
Amadeus can benefit jumper breeding by passing on a good attitude, form, and scope. He is best paired with mares that have good rectangular-shaped conformation and suppleness.

Lineage
Amadeus' sire is the keur stallion Guidam (s.Quidam de Revel), a household name in jumper breeding. He produced renowned horses including Beezie Madden's Authentic, Jeffrey Welles' Armani, Billy Twomey's Luidam, and Rolf-Göran Bengtsson's Ninja la Silla. Amadeus' dam Elottie W boasts the ster, preferent, and prestatie predicates. This G Ramiro Z daughter produced 17 offspring (7 colts and 10 fillies), among them 1 preferent, 1 keur sport(jump), 1 ster PROK, 2 ster, and 1 second round viewing. Amadeus' full brother Unicum II W, who was exported to England, is a very talented show jumper and is on track for the 2012 Olympics. Elottie W is also the dam of the international Grand Prix jumper Lazuli (s.Nimmerdor, rider Schuyler Riley), the international show jumper Tenessee W (s.Concorde), and the national jumper Igon W (s.Voltaire). In addition, Elottie W is the granddam of the ZZ-level jumper Paco Ninto (s.Wolfgang) and the Z-level jumper Nulottie W (s.Burggraaf). Amadeus' granddam Oklahoma (s.Farn) also boasts the ster, preferent, and prestatie predicates. Her offspring include the international Grand Prix jumper Maybe Forever (s.Feuerschein I, rider: Bernie Traurig) and the Z-level jumpers Faunus (s.Tangelo xx) and Jadalco W (s.Ladalco). In addition, Oklahoma is the granddam of the national jumper Maxim W (s.Nimmerdor), the ZZ-level jumper Piklahoma (s.Burggraaf), the Z-level jumper Oklahoma II (s.Indoctro), the Z2-level dressage horse Edmonton (s.Rancouver), and the Z1-level dressage horse Jackson (s.Naturel). Furthermore, Oklahoma is the great-granddam of the Zangersheide-approved stallion and national show jumper Toronto (s.Concorde) and the Z-level jumpers Oklahoma S (s.Larome) and Sport Star S (s.Epilot). At the foundation of this dam-line is Amadeus' great-granddam Zottie, a keur preferent prestatie mare and full sister to Irco Polo (Marco Polo x Sinaeda). Among Zottie's offspring are the international Grand Prix jumper Chief (s.Orthos, rider: Toon Holtus) and the international jumper Heechhiem's Eottie (s.G Ramiro Z). In addition, Zottie is the granddam of the national jumper Ottawa (s.Jus de Pomme) and the Z2-level dressage horses Nottie (s.G Ramiro-Z), Jottie (s.Voltaire), and L (s.Caritas). Furthermore, Zottie is the great-granddam of the international Grand Prix jumper Springtime (s.Indorado, rider: Nathalie van der Mei), the ZZ-level jumper Lottie (s.Nimmerdor), the Z-level jumpers Kittie (s.Nimmerdor), Unbelievable (s.Clinton), and Okarlo (s.Indoctro); and the Z1-level dressage horse Sittie (s.Beaujolais).
