Valkyree

2005 dark bay Trakehner mare
Bred by Sovereign Farm
Sired by Kostolany, out of Victree by Kaspareit

Valkyree is a very athletic mare by the renowned German FEI dressage stallion Kostolany out of the Kaspareit daughter Victree. Kostolany has a long list of highly accomplished offspring including the Grand Prix dressage stallions Gribaldi (approval Champion) and Showmaster. Her dam, Victree, by the late FEI German stallion Kaspareit, had an excellent start to a show career, placing third in the 2003 American Trakehner Association Futurity. Valkyree has every expectation of following in her parent's footsteps.

Valkyree shows all the promise of a highly competitive dressage mount. She has good activity and articulation in her movement. She has been under saddle for just over a year and has very balanced and rhythmical gaits. Her tempo is steady with unhurried up and down transitions.

Even more impressive than her performance proven bloodlines and naturally balanced gaits, is her calm willingness to please. She has shown herself to be level-headed and quick to pick up new ideas. Her "no muss, no fuss" attitude is hard to find in such a talented individual. Valkyree will remain in training with the goal of attending dressage shows in summer 2010. She stands 16.3 hands.

Congratulations to JoAnne Brinkman and Twelve Oaks Farm on the purchase of Valkyree! She is a wonderful addition to your already stellar line-up of high quality horses!
