Furioso II-Furioso II
was imported in 1968 to Germany by George
Vorwerk, a legendary breeder of
Oldenburg horses. His dam, Dame de
Renville, produced several great horses,
including Mexico, Laeken, Jexico de Parc and
Heur de Bratand. The stallion was approved
for the Oldenburg
stud book in 1967, and won his 100-day
test performed in 1968 at
Westercelle. He was incredibly
influential to the
Oldenburg breed, which used his
Thoroughbred bloodlines through his sire
to introduce a more modern type of sport
horse without resporting to a pure
Thoroughbred. Known as the "Stamp Stallion",
because his offspring inheirited his ‘very
good feet and legs, his outstanding neck and
shoulder, striking dappled chocolate
chestnut coat with flaxen tail and white
markings', Furioso II was later approved for
the
Hanoverian, Rhineland, and
Westphalian studbooks. Based on money
earned by offspring, Furioso II was the top
producing stallion in Germany from 1979-89.
In 1990 he was the top producer of
Dressage horses. During his lifetime,
the stallion produced over 200 state premium
mares and at least 70 approved sons,
including: Mexico: sire of 20 approved sons,
20 dams of stallions, and numerous show
jumping horses FBI: show jumper Heisman:

Furioso-Born in England
in 1939, the Thoroughbred colt, Furioso was
to become one of the most influential sires
in modern performance horse breeding, even
though he never won a single race in his 21
starts! He was as ‘well balanced but with
slightly knock kneed forelegs and tight
hocks’. The authoritative De L’etalon Sport
Français of 1992, remarked: ‘he had good
bone, and walked liked a Lord, with a
magnificent pace, very energetic and showing
a great deal of amplitude, his tail swinging
at each step. Though full of life he was
docile and had a good temperament.’
