2007 was another great year for Roadster under Tanja Lammers. He again won a series of dressage tests up to Inter I, also winning the Weser-Ems Champion title. He had already won gold at the 2005 Oldenburg State Championships in Rastede after having qualified for the Nürnberg Burg Pokal the year before. In 2003 Roadster took second place at the State Championships and qualified for the World Championships for young dressage horses. He finished his performance test in 2000 in Neustadt/Dosse with a total index of 130.98 which meant fourth place overall and a dressage index of 140.53 which put him on second place in the 51-strong group of competitors.
A Roadster daughter named Lotti participated in the 2007 Bundeschampionat final for driving horses after having won silver in Rastede. In 2004, a Roadster son named Royal Touch Stone (dam by Don Gregory) was licensed in Vechta and then placed in a large number of tests for young riding horses under Heike Kind, also taking bronze at the State Championships. Four of Roadster's daughters have received State Premium and many other off-spring win ribbons in tests for young dressage horses. At the 2003 Hanoverian Show in Great Britain, Roadster was the sire of the Champion Filly.
Roadster
Roadster is a son of another multi-champion stationed in Cappeln: Rohdiamant. The dam, Verb.Pr.St. Malta, also produced two jumpers, Leroy (by Lapis Lazuli) and Inschallah (by Inschallah AA). Her daughter Reine Seide was the 1998 Oldenburg Champion Mare and represented the Oldenburg Verband at the German Broodmare Show. The dam's sire Furioso II, an Anglo-Norman stallion, influenced warmblood breeding practically throughout Europe from Gestüt Vorwerk. The life-time earnings of his progeny such as the two-time Olympic winner For Pleasure/Marcus Ehning and Lars Nieberg, Friesengeist alias Heisman/Michael Matz/USA, Voltaire/Jos Lansink/BEL, Cocktail/Anky van Grunsven/NED and currently Ferrari/Steve Guerdat/SUI had reached more than 3.7 million Euros by the end of 2007.
