For Christmas I want perfect Qredit! Includes video to die for

I've done a few articles on the stallion Quaterback when he was the hotsy-totsy stallion du jour.   I was, and am, a big fan, and was thrilled to  see  one of his sons, Qredit, at Devon as a yearling.  Then I was distracted by Totilas, and... Well if you get the Hilltop Farm newsletter, as I do, you learn things. Qredit is now owned by Hilltop.  He's coming 3 years old and is now a big, gorgeous grown-up boy. He was named the Champion Stallion at ISR/Oldenburg Licensing.  Congrats to Hilltop, to former owner Michelle, and to  breeder Judy Yancey who must be busting buttons over this. Below is an excerpt from the Hilltop Newsletter, and if you need an adrenalin rush, check out his video (adult footage starts at 45 seconds)!

About Qredit

New to the Hilltop Farm line-up in 2011 is the Oldenburg stallion  Qredit.  Bred by Judy Yancey of Florida, Qredit represents three generations of her  breeding program and traces back to her foundation Trakehner mare Helena whom she imported  in 1977.  Qredit’s dam, Dream Rubina, is  a Premium Oldenburg mare that is by the Grand Prix stallion Dream of Glory  (grandsire to our Grand Prix horse Douglas Hilltop).  From the legendary Donnerhall-Pik Bube  combination, Dream of Glory proved his value as a breeding stallion siring 4  licensed stallions and over 20 S-level competitors, Bundeschampionat winners,  and high-priced auction offspring.   Granddam Reina H has produced an impressive 8 Premium offspring with the  GOV and is the dam of the licensed stallion Sirringo (Sir Donnerhall).

  4. Drrrroooool! He is gorgeous. I can't get over that lofty trot; actually, why do some horses trot that way and others not so much? Thanks for sharing!!!

  6. Lovely, lovely. But I get worn out watching the handler run with him. Boy, do you have to be fit to show a horse like that in hand!

    Love the suspension.

  14. Wow. Well, if you`re offering... I suppose I could oblige ;) I know you`re not supposed to buy a horse for their colour or markings, but seriously; talk about gorgeous!
