The "Reiter und Pferde in Westfalen" magazine published the statistics of the 2003 breedings to Westfalian licensed stallions. These figures are highly interesting if you want to know what the latest breeding trends are.
2003 breeding leader is the dressage sire Fürst Piccolo with 286 breedings. Last year the Westfalian studbook registered approximately 6600 breedings in total to Westfalian licensed stallions.
Leading sire is Furst Piccolo, a 1997 born liver chestnut stallion by Fidermark x Mephistopheles, standing 16.1 hh. Furst Piccolo was a premium stallion at the NRW main approval in 1999 and won the 100 day test in 2000 with high scores. His crop of foals were sold at the Munster Elite auctions for top prices.
