Isabell Werth has connected her name to the 5-year old Hanoverian licensed stallion Valdiviani for the horse's future in sport.
Her long-time sponsor Madeleine Winter-Schulze owns the 5-year old stallion.
The colt is marketed through two stallion stations, through show jumper Ludger Beerbaum (who is also sponsored by Winter-Schulze) and through Tobias Schult with whom Isabell Werth has a long-time standing collaboration.
For the 2021 stallion catalogue, pictures were made with Isabell Werth riding him. However already in 2019 Werth's assistant rider Lisa Wernitznig rode Valdiviani at the Schult stallion show with Werth providing the commentary. In 2020 Werth's assistant rider Niklaas Feilzer rode him in the sport test.
Premium Stallion
Valdiviani is by Veneno out of the Rhinelander mare Fairlight R.B (by Fidertanz x Pit I x Landino). He is bred by Roger Ballmann at Hof auf der Hardt in St.Vith, Belgium.
The bright bay was presented at the 2018 Hanoverian stallion licensing in Verden, where he was proclaimed premium stallion. He was not offered for sale and was listed as owned by Tobias Schult in the catalog.
He did his 14-day suitability test in April 2019 in Neustadt/Dosse, where he scored 8.13 for dressage and 7.73 for show jumping, totalling 8.03 points. In February 2020 he did the sport test in Munster, where scored 8.27 for dressage.
The 5-year old stallion has not yet been competed in Germany.
