Furioso II: A Pillar of Modern Sport Horse Breeding 🐴

Furioso II, a French-bred Anglo-Norman stallion, is celebrated as one of the most influential sires in the history of warmblood breeding. Imported to Germany in 1968, he revolutionized breeding programs across Europe.

🏇 Legacy Highlights:

▪️Sired over 70 approved stallions, including For Pleasure and Voltaire, two monumental names in showjumping.
▪️Known for passing on athleticism, trainability, and versatility, making his progeny successful in showjumping, dressage, and eventing.
▪️Influenced the development of multiple studbooks, including Hanoverian, Oldenburg, and Holsteiner.

Furioso II’s ability to consistently produce top-tier performance horses solidified his place as a cornerstone in warmblood genetics. His bloodlines continue to shape equestrian sports worldwide.

Several top-ranked stallions today carry the influence of Furioso II in their bloodlines, particularly in disciplines like showjumping and dressage. For example, For Pleasure, a hugely successful jumping sire in Germany, carries Furioso II genetics, as does Voltaire, another influential sire. Additionally, Florestan (a Westfalien grandson of Furioso II) and his descendants, such as Fidertanz and Farewell, have left a significant mark in the dressage world.

In Holland, Furioso II's influence also extends through sons like Le Mexico and Ulft, whose offspring include famous sires such as Ferro and Negro. Ferro's influence is especially prominent in modern dressage with his grandson, Valegro, being one of the most decorated horses in the sport. These stallions not only maintain but amplify the qualities associated with Furioso II, such as strength, stamina, and versatility in competition.
