Alexandra Duncan Imports Oldenburg Licensed Stallion Elantic

Canada

Wellington based Canadian Grand Prix rider Alexandra Duncan has imported the Oldenburg licensed stallion Elantic.

He will be standing up for stud in the U.S.A. while owner Duncan produces him to Grand Prix Level

Licensed and Approved

Elantic is a 6-year old Oldenburg stallion by Erdinger out of Bella Bella S (by Belantis x Samba Hit I x Rubinstein). He is bred by Fritz Schulze Jr. His paternal grand sire is former international Grand Prix horse Escolar, who also sired the highly popular Escamillo.

Initially owned by Gestut Sprehe, Elantic was first licensed by the Mecklenburger breeding society at a private licensing at Sprehe's in Löningen in November 2022. He was then further approved for the Oldenburg and Westfalian breeding society in the early spring of 2021.

Elantic did his 14-day suitability test in Neustadt Dosse in September 2021 scoring 8.30 for dressage and 7.75 for show jumping. He finished on a strong total of 8.08 score in a group of 34 participating stallions. He completed his mandatory sport test in March 2023 in Munich, scoring 8.15 for his dressage qualities and potential.

Italian Residency

Elantic was initially trained by the team at Gestut Sprehe and then moved to Italy, where he was first competed in the 6-year old FEI young horse tests by Simone Citelli.

At their debut show they won both the preliminary and finals test with an 81% mark. Citelli showed the stallion twice more in the spring in the young horse classes, each time placing first or second.

Elantic was developed under the supervision of Italian Grand Prix rider Nausicaa Maroni.

Next Chapter in the U.S.A.

The bay stallion has now begun the next chapter in his career in Wellington, Florida, in the training and care of new owner Alexandra Duncan.

"I discovered him at Maroni's stable Il Cavallino in Italy and my goal is to develop him to Grand Prix," said Duncan, who is based at the Palm Beach Equine Sports complex. "I am very excited to have this young stallion available for US breeding and produce a top sport horse."

Elantic will be available next breeding season with frozen and fresh semen. He will stand at stud alongside Duncan's KWPN licensed stallion Mckenzy JHL (by Alexandro P x WV Saron), whom Duncan imported last year and who did his first year of breeding in America in 2024.

"My goal has been looking for stallions to have available for USA to introduce more accessibility for American breeders and access to top bloodlines," Alexandre explained. "Elantic is no stranger to top sport already with exceptional scores and marks for breeding."

Duncan has two further Grand Prix horses in training, King (by Lord Leatherdale x Ferro) and Illusionist M (by Charmeur x Vivaldi) as well as small tour horse Kopperfield C-Two (by Toto Jr x Ferro). She has also expanded working with M&G stables, a show jumping facility run by Maria Gabrielli and Gracey Grainer.
