Hofrat showed a uniform collection of foals with more than sufficient to good development and good dressage horse conformation. The foals have nobility, presence, and a remarkably well-developed wither. The front leg is constricted in several foals. The walk has good scope and elasticity. The trot is light-footed with more than sufficient carriage, but the hind leg should step under the body more convincingly. The canter is light-footed with good scope and carriage. Two foals showed irregular movement in the trot. Several foals which were scored at their home location had a toed-in front leg and a tight topline. These traits were not evident in foals selected by their registered parties.
Number of registered offspring in 2013: 17 fillies and 19 colts
Number of foals scored at their home location in 2013: 22 foals
Number of foals present: 6 foals
Breeding Recommendation
Hofrat can add nobility and light-footed movement to dressage horse breeding when paired with long-lined mares with a powerful hind leg.
