Harmsworth Elfinesque
 |
2004 Bay Trakehner Mare 16.0hh by Tycoon x Elfennymphe
Elfinesque (Elf) is the youngest broodmare in the Volatis herd. Elf is a modern stamp, very elegant and feminine, with outstanding suspension and elasticity in her gaits. She still has some maturing and growing to do and so the decision has been made to present her for grading in 2008 as a 4 year old. Elf carries some exceedingly valuable and interesting bloodlines.
For her first foal Elf was bred to the Elite Grand Prix stallion Latimer, and the resulting filly, Volatis Elfentime, is absolutely magnificent. Very typey, very feminine and elegant and with super conformation. A great start to Elf's broodmare career.
Offspring:
2008 - Volatis Elfentime bay filly by Latimer
Elf is a daughter of the extravagent moving stallion Tycoon. Tycoon is a powerful and large framed stallion, who competed successfully in both show jumping and dressage in Germany. One of Elf's attractions is the quality of Tycoon's female offspring. He was the sire of the Champion Trakehner mare in Germany in 2000, and is the dam sire of both the Champion and Reserve Champion Stallion in 2004 (Le Rouge and C'Est Bon). He also has daughters successfully show jumping and eventing, including a winner at the Bundeschampionate, the now advanced mare Amazing Grace. In 2007 he produced the Champion of the TBF mare grading, Godington Umbria.
His own sire was an international show jumper, and his damline has produced a number of Grade A jumpers and Champion stallions.
Elf's damsire is the Elite stallion Consul, a hugely important influence in both the Trakehner and Hanoverian breeds and a family that appears prominently in the Volatis breeding program. Consul not only sired Olympic dressage contenders and many graded sons and daughters, but is also a very exciting name to see in the bottom half of a pedigree. He is the damsire of leading Hanvoerian dressage stallion Don Frederico and Olympic dressage contender Bon Bonaparte. Elf's dam Elfennymphe took very strongly after her sire in apperance. She descends from the famous 'Elfe' family, that produced many premium mares and stallions such as Erzsand. The Champion of the 2002 Stallion Grading, Elfengeist is a half brother to Elfennymphe.
