Buddenbrock was stallion of the year in 2010. Buddenbrock has sired many approved sons including the elite stallions E.H. Connery and E.H. King Arthur. Damsire: Beauté was born in 1965 in Canada, bred by Gerda Friedrichs, Keswick, ON. He was brought to the U.S. and approved for breeding in 1975. In 1976 Judy Yancey, a 3-day event athlete read an article in Chronicle of the Horse about warmbloods and to Judy the idea of a warmblood for competing was exciting. She researched and decided on a Trakehner Stallion named BEAUTÉ who became her eventing and dressage partner for many years. BEAUTÉ was the first warmblood to come west of the Mississippi in the U.S. Beauté is a grandson of TOTILAS, one of the most influential sires post war. TOTILAS made the trek from Trakehnen to western Germany and barely escaped being “gifted” to Russia for their efforts in defeating Germany. The comments by the Verband inspectors for TOTILAS read “Very good stallion with a strikingly racy head, lots of neck, lots of shoulders, very deep, also wide, pressure behind the withers, good ribs; short, good medium strong, correct foundation. Good gear. ” Beauté had a wonderful temperament and during his life with Judy Yancey, he was often used to demonstrate the temperament of Trakehners by allowing riders to have a spin on him.
