For
many years the main sire at St. Ludwig, Donnerschlag left his distinctive
mark on an era of breeding at the
respected
stud. His career had many high
points,". . . enough to fill a book." At his 1990 stallion performance
test, he showed a multitude of talents. In 1993 he was winner of a finals class
at the Federal Championship for dressage horses, at Manheim. Donnerschlag posted
many wins and placings at Grand Prix and World Cup , Intermediare level. His
sire, Donnerhall was a stallion of legendary proportions, who achieved the
unbelievable sire production index for dressage of 274 points! His dam, Pirola
was a full sister to Pik Bube I and II. Bred to Raphael she bred the stallion
Regazzo, now in Sweden. Her dam line is based on international jumper Dohlenfürsten.
As a sire Donnerschlag has excelled--he has over two dozen offspring competing
in "S" dressage, and a large number of gold medal and high-priced
auction foals. He also has a large number of approved sons, including Dream
