In
Style toonde een uniforme collectie goed ontwikkelde, aansprekende en
hoogbenige veulens. De veulens staan
ruim voldoende in het rechthoekmodel en beschikken over veel uitstraling en een
goed gevormde voorhand, waarbij vooral de halsvorm positief opvalt in gebruik.
In de bovenlijn zijn de veulens een enkele keer wat week. De croupe is correct
gebouwd. Het fundament is correct en straalt kwaliteit uit. Bij de door de
eigenaar gepresenteerde veulens is een enkele maal een sabelbenig achterbeen
waargenomen. De stap is ruim voldoende van ruimte met een goede souplesse. De
draf is krachtig met een goede ruimte, veel souplesse en goede balans. De
veulens galopperen makkelijk aan. De galop is eveneens krachtig, goed van
ruimte met veel souplesse en ruim voldoende tot veel balans. Meerdere van de
door de eigenaar gepresenteerde veulens toonden een heel goed achterbeengebruik.

Lineage:

(s.Heraldik xx), ridden by Franziska Hoffmann. This Holsteiner dam-line
continues with daughters by Raimondo, Toledo and Fasching.
