The anglo arabian Ramzez represents one of the basic blood lines on which Holsteiner breeding has beeen founded. Ramzes gave a new dimension to sport horse breeding. Ramiro's dam is  Valine, who aquired international fame as a show jumper by the name of Corrale under Lutz Gossing. She is a daughter of the reputable thoroughbred Cottage Son, who became famous through his son Consul. Ramiro's dam is frm linage 776 one of the most valueable Holstiener female blood lines going back to Achill and Edelbert.
 

In 1969 Ramiro was the absolute top stallion of his performance year and was not only used for breeding but was successfully showjumped. He was ridden by Fritz Ligges and excelled in his puissance performances, up to 2.2 meters as well as in competition where speed was essential. Ramiro moved to the Netherlands to Studbook Zangersheide in 1979, and came to the netherlands 2 years later. on rhe basis of of his breeding efforts that had earned him worldwide fame, he was declared horse of the year at jumping Amsterdam in 1992. Ramiro Z progeny can be described with one word: sublime. He supplied a large number of stallions approved in the Netherlands and abroad as well as an impressive series of sport horses. In the Netherlands his sons Almiro, Armstrong, Bernstein, Dageraad, Damiro, Elmero and Zeoleit were approved. His daughter the super mare Ratina Z is the dream of the show jumping world, winning both gold and silver at the Barcelona Olympics and, under her new rider Ludger Beerbaum, claiming the Volvo World Cup of 1993.

Dam's dam sire: Cor de la Bryere

Cor de la Bryere was born in France, and was by the Thoroughbred Rantzau, a racehorse and a producer of fantastic jumping horses. His dam, Quenotte B, also had a jumping pedigree, as she by Lurioso who was sired by the great Furioso. Despite his fantastic pedigree, the French selection committee suggested he be gelded. His owner, Xavier Ribard, decided to sell him.

The Holsteiner Verband had noticed the success that French blood had in the Oldenburg breed, which had used the stallions Furioso II and Futuro (both by Furioso) to upgrade their stock, and wished to introduce it into their own horses. The Oldenburg breeder Alwin Schockemöhle offered to part-lease the stallion Urioso (by Furioso). An inspection committee travelled to France to evaluate the horse, and happened to find Cor de la Bryere while they were there. The Verband purchased and imported the 3-year-old to Schleswig Holstein, Germany, in 1971. The same year he was the Champion of his 100 Day Test.

On April 27th, 2000, at the age of 32, Cor de la Bryere was put down due to acute heart disease.

The Breeding Career of Cor de la Bryere

  • Approved Sons: 85 (as of 2000)
  • States Premium Mares: 86 (as of 2000)
  • Progeny Winnings to 1993: 2,000,000+ DM
  • Progeny Winnings to 1996: 5,581,229 DM

Described by breeders as a 'gift from heaven,' Cor de la Bryere has been especially successful producing jumping horses, as he passes on his incredible bascule, scope, and jumping technique. Cor de la Bryere also passed on his willingness and trainability. Romedio Graf von Thun-Hohenstein described the stallion: 'The arching back, like a taut band of steel combined with the super elastic end gives limitless, but always expedient, springing capability to the natural dynamics of each effort. Add to that ease of riding, marvelous disposition, and a floating, highly balanced canter. These qualities are absolutely to the benefit of young horses, who will no longer have to pay with premature breakdowns caused by jumping and showing solely with a raw, crude jumping talent.'

Cor de la Bryere has had an incredible impact on the Holsteiner breed, occurring in more than 70% of Holsteiner pedigrees, and is credited for improving the breed's jumping technique. He also had a huge impact on the Oldenburg breed.

His influence in France was limited, mainly due to his jumping. Although he was quick to fold his front legs, he did not have great power. When crossed with Holsteiner mares, which provided this power, his offspring were very successful in the show ring. However, the French mares did not have this power, and so they were usually a poor cross to Cor de la Bryere.

Cor de la Bryere was especially successful in breeding with certain mares. Tabelle (by Heisporn) produced 5 approved sons, including Calypso I and Calypso II. Furgund (by Colombo) bred with him 18 times, also producing five approved sons. Deka produced Caletto I, II and III, all by the stallion.

Cor de la Bryere stood at Siethwende from 1971 to 1984, Zangersheide 1985, Elmshorn 1986 to 1988, and Sollwittfeld from 1989 until his death in 2000. In his first season, he covered 70 mares and four colts from his first crop were llicensed.
