Limbo King was bred by famous breeder Johan van der Decken in Germany. He was sired by Lauries Crusador xx and out of renown dam sire Bolero. In 2002 he was brought to Valhalla Farm, North Florida and trained up to FEI levels by Jean and Erin Brinkman. He returned to Germany in 2005 resuming training and showing at compelling competitions by Julia Schmid, Lonsee-Urspringe, Germany. In January 2007 Limbo King once again came back to Florida and has been shown up to Intermediate 2. At Whispering Dream he is now trained as 14-year-old with the goal to be shown at Grand Prix in 2008. Watch a training session with Limbo King in Passage and Piaffe here.
2004 Hanoverian sired by Rotspon (Rubinstein I) and dam sire Werther came from Germany in fall 2006. He was selected and trained by German coach and talent scout Rudi Rehkamp, Bersenbrueck, Germany. He stands at 17.1 hands with being just 4 year old and has actually been showed in 2008 in 4-year-old FEI tests. Rehkamp's Opal - nick-named Rehki - qualified for the 2008 Regional Championships in Georgia.
Bolero Ultimo is the very last offspring of two of the most famous Hanoverian bloodlines in Germany: Sire is the world-renowned Brentano II and dam sire Weltmeyer has earned international fame with his outstanding Dressage offspring. Both stallions have been retired in 2006 and thus Brentano Ultimo has to carry on the pride of his famous ancestors. He has been started at Rudi Rehkamp's stables in Bersenbrueck, Germany, in 2008 and was shipped to Whispering Dream Farm in December 2009. Under the supervision of Grand Prix Judge and Dressage Trainer Wolfgang Kutting, Brentano Ultimo - a look-a-like half-brother of retired famous Brentina under Debbie McDonald - was first trained in the arena in late April of 2009.

She will take you to some of the most renowned State Stallion and Breeding Farms but also to a few small farms known to insiders as hidden gems when looking at affordable but still outstanding young horses.
