Alois's sire, Ascot

French Grand Prix Showjumping Champion, Elite Stallion




Ascot's sire, Alme Z

French International Showjumper


Almé Z (16 April 1966 – 21 March 1991) was a 16.1 hh (165 cm) sport horse stallion who was a prolific sire of showjumping horses.

His sire was by the Selle Français, Ibrahim, a stallion whose influence is still incredibly strong today. His dam, Girondine, produced three full brothers to Almé, which were all licensed stallions or successful jumpers.

The young stallion was ridden by Bernard Geneste as a five-year-old, before he was purchased and competed by American Fred Lorimer Graham for two years. He was then taken as a mount by François Mathy and Johan Heins, with whom he competed internationally. He won many Grand Prix events, including the Grand Prix of the Netherlands.

Almé Z's breeding career


Almé had a successful career at stud, and his impact on the breed is often compared to that of the champion Thoroughbred stallion, Northern Dancer.

He first stood at stud as a five year old, serving France from 1971–1974, before standing at Zangersheide from 1975–1985. He was then returned to France, where he stood at the Brullemail stud farm until his retirement in 1990, covering 420 mares from across Europe. His stud fee during this time, after having proven himself so well, ranged from F14,000 to F20,000.

During his first 4 years in France, Almé sired the international show jumpers Galoubet, I Love You (2 time World Cup winner), and Jalisco B.

Jalisco B is the father of super star stallion Quidam de Revel, Galoubet A is the father of Quick Star and of the three times World Cup winner Baloubet du Rouet. While standing at Zangersheide, his offspring were registered in the Hanoverian stud book, where his blood had great influence, and he also made his way into the Holstein stud books through his sons Ahorn Z, Aloubé Z, Athlet Z, and Alexis Z. His grandson, Quidam de Revel, has also been used in Holstein breeding.

Alme is the only horse to have sired 2 World Champions and 3 Olympic horses. His son, Aerobic, became the top priced horse at the PSI Auktion in Ankum (650,000 DM).

Almé's Statistics from the 2002 FEI World Equestrian Games in Jerez

  • 92 total horses participated at the WEG: 32 stallions, 31 geldings, 29 mares
  • 5 stallions had more than one horse participating:
    • Quidam de Revel (5)
    • Capitol I (4)
    • Le Tot de Semilly (3)
    • Robin IZ (2)
    • Touchdown (2)

Quidam de Revel, Robin I Z, and Touchdown are all grandsons of Almé. Almé had a total of 21 horses (22.3%) in the WEG competition descended from him. At the end of the speed class and Nations Cup, 9 (36%) of the Top 25 horses were descended from Almé. After two rounds of the Individual Championship, 4 (40%) of the Top 10 were descended from Almé. Of the four horses in the final round, 3 (75%) were descended from Almé.

In 2002 his great grand daughter Liscalgot won World Championship individual gold for Dermott Lennon of Ireland. She is a mare by Touchdown who was by Galoubet A.

CPrH Brioni / Trak. v. Friedenfurst / Trak,. Ud Bagheerah ox v. Bagdad ox


06 Jan 2001
brown, 165cm
Breeder: Dr M Dobberthien

Premium stallion

2003 Licensed by ZSAA, recognised for Trakehner, Oldenburg, German Sport Horse, Mecklenburg


Trakehner-Rheinland reports:
"A clear refiner of the best design, Brioni represents a successful symbiosis of Trakehner and Arabs. He knew how to please with his gait, uphill tendency, charm and charisma"


Brioni was licensed in Alsfeld in 2003 by the Breeding Association for Shagya Arabs, Anglo-Arabs and Arabs eV ( ZSAA ) and shortly thereafter recognized by the Trakehner Association.

As a premium stallion and reserve winner , he received
9 marks for type and trot.

The licensing protocol says: “ An expressive Partbred stallion who embodies an Arabized Trakehner type and appears masculine despite his young age. Well, medium-framed, harmonious with a suitable belt depth, curved topline and delicate, correct foundation. "Step:" comes to pace in rhythm "; Trot: “In a trot, full of energy and energetic thrust from the active hindquarters in beautiful balance; Gallop: rhythmic, balanced canter from which a safely appraising and capable jumping ensues. "












Highly decorated in basic tests, Brioni was successful in all 3 disciplines. 


He was qualified for the Bundeschampionat in eventing, he jumped up to class M, in dressage he was high placed in class M.

Brioni was recognized by the Trakehner Association on April 18, 2004 in Kerken.

In his assessment it says: “ The strong type and very impressive in his habitus Brioni embodies the successful symbiosis of a large-framed Trakehner dressage stallion with a noble thoroughbred Arabian mare. He is closed and shapely in physique and stands on a solid foundation. With a good step he moves at a trot with beautiful mechanics ”.

The Trakehner booklets wrote (TH, 5/2004, p. 8) : “Brioni v. Prince of Peace from the purely Russian-bred Bagheerah ox presented himself as a refiner of the highest quality. He is one of the first stallions of the last few years, which comes from the mating of one with a thoroughbred Arabian mare "

The Trakehner booklets wrote (TH, 5/2004, p. 45)
“ Brioni… was one of the eye-catchers at the licensing. The three-year-old bay, bred from Russian lines on his mother's side, not only made hearts melt with his type and charm, but also convinced the commission with his harmonious, correct conformation and his particularly lively trot, developed from active hindquarters, which was rewarded with a 9 ."


Trakehner International wrote:

“ This bay stallion displayed excellent Trakehner type and was one of the more gifted colts in the free jumping performance, proving again that this sire, the late EH Friedensfuerst carried excellent jumper blood that he was able to pass on despite his son success as a dressage horse. Brioni is currently the only Trakehner stallion in the Stallion Book I with a pure Arabian dam, which makes him an interesting addition to the gene pool. ”













Brioni's sire Friedenfürst was successful in dressage under Lisa Wilcox on major tours. ü


Friedensfürst: by Rondo out of Frieda by Gelria, Trakehner.

First approved for the Hannovarian breed, this very tall chestnut stallion passed an excellent performance test before he was also approved for the Trakehner breed.

He completed an excellent stallion licensing with 126.99 points (132.18 points for rideability).

Already winning at 4th level dressage, Friedensfürst was then given to Vorwerk stud, home of Rubinstein, where Nicole Uphoff took over his training and very quickly showed him at PSG level and beyond.

They won the reserve title at the Nürnberg Burgpokal and after Nicole had left Vorwerk, American rider Lisa Wilcox too Friedensfürst to Grand Prix.

Recognized as one of the most talented German dressage horses in recent times, Friedensfürst stood at the very beginning of a big international career when a fatal heart disease caused the death of this shining star. A big loss for the dressage world and the Trakehner breed, as he was also becoming a popular sire.







Brioni's Arab dam, Bagheerah ox, goes back to the best Tersk bloodlines, several times with Priboj ox and Pomeranets ox in the pedigree, both sires of successful Russian high-performance horses. In addition to her ability to perform and willingness to perform, she has given Brioni her Arabic beauty and smoothness as well as a lot of liveliness, perseverance and human focus.

Beryllium's dam Numees has a good SLP, is an elite mare and is registered in the FN's A + D performance studbooks .

Beryllium MD's mother Numees is also the mother of the isabel-colored PrH Quasi Gold MD, a popular favorite at the South German licensing in Neustadt / D. 2011.

Their offspring are all awarded prizes.

Numees has roots in Brandenburg, Hanover, Oldenburg, Kinsky and Czech. 

Her pedigree is rounded off with the noble blood of the Anglo Arabs Inschallah AA and Ramzes AA , the Trakehner Marduc , Magister , Abglanz and Vers I , as well as the thoroughbreds Novum xx , Alpsee xx, Diadem xx and Der Löwe xx .
