| With this Florestan son Florianus, we can offer one of the most popular and most highly profiled bloodlines in the Westphalian breed. Florianus, a premium stallion at the 2000 approval, is out of St.Pr.St. Die Dame, who is definitely a very exceptional mare in her breeding area. With a foal at foot, she still won many tests for young riding horses and went on to win several elementary level tests for jumpers. Her full sister, St.Pr.St. Dornröschen, took third place at the Bundeschampionat in Warendorf and was a top priced mare at the Elite Auction in Münste.
These two mares along with Florianus' granddam, St.Pr.St. Rebecca, were the winning family at the Westphalian Elite Broodmare Show and also represented Germany on a European level in Brussels. The Warendorf State Stud stallion, Dottore,
is a full brother of Florianus' dam, St.Pr.St. Die Dame. This dam line with Hanoverian origins also produced the licensed stallions
- Dalheim (private stallion in Rhineland),
- Doll (private stallion in Bawue),
- Falkenstern I (private stallion in Hanover),
- Falkenstern II (State Stud Celle)
- Gotthardsen (State Stud Celle).
Florianus successfully participated at the 2003 Bundeschampionat in Warendorf as well as the 2004 World Championships for young dressage horses. As one of Karin Rehbein's youngsters, he easily took the hurdle to advanced level and finished the 2005 show season, at the age of just seven, with a respectable second place in an Intermediaire I test. His strong willingness to collect in the most difficult movements of passage and piaffe showed how worthwhile it was to train him and this was rewarded in 2006 by numerous ribbons in Grand Prix. 2007 he was with an individual year profit sum of over 22.000 € the most successful Westphalian dressage horse in Germany. Nationwide he takes place 11.
