Woodside Raphael
Chestnut Gelding
19/10/13 Mature 16.1hh
Riverside (imp) x Revelwood Florentine
On account of Bowral Estate Wines
Riverside has a breeding index of 138.5 points. To put this into perspective, his overall index is higher than many highly regarded stallions such as Alabaster, Brentano II and Londonderry. In 2006 Riverside was a finalist in the World Championships for young dressage horses in Verden. He was the most highly qualified horse with a score of 9.0 for the Federal Championships (Bundeschampionat). Riverside has produced premium foals and top quality riding horses in Germany, for example, his son Rodrigo sold at Elite Auction in Verden in 2007 for €€200,000. Woodside Raphael’s dam is Revelwood Florentine, a chestnut mare 17.1hh, sire Ferrero Rocher (imp) and dam, Donna Prima (imp) by Donnerhall. Ferrero Rocher is a fabulous type with big loose, swinging paces and performed successfully at Grand Prix level with Amanda Shoobridge. Woodside Raphael is broken in, and going very kindly under the expert guidance of David and Robbie McKinnon. He has an incredible temperament, combined with three correct expressive paces. We believe he will be very competitive in both dressage and showing, and a perfect candidate for Dressage and Jumping with the Stars in 2018.
