Avelina descends from very famous and internationally successful bloodlines. Her movement illustrates what this type of breeding can create. She is a fluid mover with a long reaching walk, lofty suspension at the trot and round rhythmic canter and a Presence about her. Beautiful head, neck and topline, great hind end, good feet and legs. Easy to work with and loves people. She is a very sane uncomplicated young filly with no vices.   Avelina should mature to 16.1+hh.

Sire Olivi is a Jazz son and also the sire of Iron Spring Farm's UB40. Olivi was the Reserve Champion of his Performance Test Ermelo 1999  From his performance report;  

Olivi is an honest, reliable stallion. He is very willing to work and works well.
The walk has scope, tact and is well carried. In the trot Olivi has good scope, tact and balance. He trots with good horizontal balance. The canter has scope and is well carried. Olivi should carry himself better through the transitions. Olivi has a great deal of aptitude for dressage and gives his rider a more than adequate to good feeling.
Olivi scored 8's for walk and trot with a 7 for canter and a dressge index of 164.   His first foal report indicated that Olivi showed a sufficiently uniform collection of moderately to sufficiently developed, riding type foals that stand in moderate to sufficient rectangular model and that have charisma.

Dam Polina is by Olympic Lancet - Lancet descends from a valuable, exemplary combination of bloodlines from the legendary Hanoverian Breeding Station Stedebergen: Wenzel I x Shogun xx. His sire Wenzel I produced expensive Verden Auction horses as well as Bundeschampions. Besides Lancet, his most famous offspring is the World Cup Finals’ winner Walk on Top (Louise Nathhorst). Lancet is a highly refined dressage stallion thanks to his thoroughbred dam sire Shogun xx and comes from a first class dam line. His grand dam Anika is a full sister to Argentan I (Hanoverian Stallion of the Year 1994) and Argentan II. They represent the same line as DLG-Champion mare Goldlady, who is the queen at multiple elite mare shows. Her sons Frenchman I and Frenchman II are highly asked for sires. In Holstein, this Mare Family carries the number 8777 and also produced the top class half brother Calvin Z, Lansing, and the shining star Cantus, who are all outstanding jumper sires.

Lancet participated in the 2004 Olympics and placed 11th individually and 4th in team placement riding for the Netherlands.  In 2005, Emma Hindle and Lancet had their first show season together and placed high at the CHIO Aachen. In 2006, they were the best performing British pair at the World Equestrian Games in Aachen. 2006 season highlights were the victory in the Grand Prix and Special at the CDI Fritzens and the win in the Grand Prix and a second place in the Special at the CDI Stadl-Paura. An absolute highpoint of the year was the 5-year old Uzzo becoming World Champion at the 2006 World Young Dressage Horse Championships in Verden. Uzzo is by Lancet out of a C-Indoctro dam and was ridden by his owner Patrick van der Meer. Lancet’s first crop of foals in Germany produced many highly placed premium foals.  HIs dressage index stands at 143 with 79% reliability

And then there is Doruto......... polina's dam, Enalina, hails from some of the most sought after bloodlines for dressage - Doruto x Amor and her line is full of predicates.  Her dressage breeding index of
2007: KWPN fokwaarde dressuur 134 39%.  Having Doruto this close up in a pedigree is becoming more and more difficult to find. Doruto is considered to be one of the most influential dressage sires of all time. Unlike the Amor offspring who were flashy and showy from a young age, the Doruto offspring were often plain in appearance, with common heads and ordinary movement. However, as these offspring matured, their desire to please the rider and ease in the FEI movements became apparent. Gert van der Veen described Doruto offspring in an article for a Dutch magazine. "The Doruto offspring have such a character. Even though they are not duds, they allow themselves to be worked- they do not oppose to the input of the rider. One of the essential traits for a dressage horse is that he must be able to easily handle the physical demands of the sport... They are very trainable. They allow themselves, some a little earlier than others, to become gymnasts. They don't break down mentally and they stay happy." Some of the notable international Doruto offspring from the 1980s and 1990s include Ideaal (ridden by Jo Hinneman, trainer of Olympic Ferro, to numerous German, European and World Championships), Olympic Barbria (1996 Team Silver Medal at the Olympics), Urion, (ridden by Nadine Capellmann, World Champion) and Heruto (Grand Prix horse under Coby van Baalen).

Doruto was the leading Dressage Sire in the World Breed Rankings for 1998/1999 for his best achieving descendants.

Polina was imported from Holland as a yearling by DG Bar Ranch.
