Reference Mares

Rivendell Galadriel
Galadriel is the daughter of famous mare Greta, one of the first Hannoverian mares ever imported to RSA by Tosca Vorster. Greta produced 23 foals in her life, with Galadriel being her last filly. Due to this, Galadriel will be used as a broodmare only.

Saffron House Tao
Tao was bred by a good friend. She must have sustained an injury as a youngster, which resulted in a chronic irregularity and she could not be produced as a riding horse. Hence, she came to the stud as a broodmare, to continue with the lines of her sire, M.o.T Diaghilev.

St Pr St Calvyra Z
Calvyra was bought by Rivendell Stud in 2006 from the Lewitz Stud, owned by Paul Schockemoehle. Before becoming a broodmare, Calvyra competed at top international level for many years in show jumping.

St Pr St Wolkenfree
Wolkenfee was bought in 2010, in foal to Sir Donnerhall. She produced a black colt, Rivendell Statesman, and was then inseminated with Belissimo M semen before travelling to RSA. She produced an exquisite colt, Rivendell Beregond, and is a very valuable dressage broodmare for the stud.

Dos Con Dios
Dos Con Dios is an imported Hanoverian mare, who was brought into the country by Callaho stud. She was then purchased by a friend of mine and I had the privilege of buying her there.

St Pr St Celine Dion
Celine was bought by the stud in 2010, in foal to Clintord. As dam to the top Hannoverian stallion Salito, Celine is a very valuable component to the show-jumping component of the stud.

Rivendell Blu
Blu was backed as a three year old and went very well under saddle. Being such a tall gangly youngster with such a promising future ahead of her, it was decided to put her in foal before she starts her competitive career.
