Figaro B's sire, Pavarotti vd Helle has consistently produced offspring at the highest levels of both dressage and jumping competition. Pavarotti himself was the reserve champion of the jumping test for Rheinland and Westfalen as well as the BWP. Following a trailer accident, Pavarotti became a champion dressage performer. The descendants of Pavarotti are notable for their good looks. As well, they combine super movement with excellent jumping technique.

Figaro B's grandsire, Pilot is without doubt the best Westphalian producer of jumpers. Pilot has produced about thirty Grand Prix horses including Priamos, Bugatti Pedro, Piro, and Panama. Damsire Wellington was reserve champion of the stallion testing in 1983 and went on to place 3rd in the National stallion competition in 1985, 2nd in the 1987 competition, and 1st in the stallion competition category C. He also starred in dressage at Z-level and jumped nationally. He earned his "keur" predicate by siring many "ster" and "keur" mares, and approved stallions like Emilion, Farrington, and Glennridge. He has also sired many international show jumpers like VDL Jupiter, Jerome, SP Deka and What a Game. Wellington has also sired top dressage horses like Bolvorms Ceylon and Luxaflex.

True to his pedigree, Figaro B shows exceptional talent for both dressage and show jumping. A powerful jumper, with beautiful movement Figaro B should shine in both arenas. Adding a "10" temperament to his talent and good looks, Figaro B should be an important stallion in the future. Multi-talented, Figaro B will be lightly ridden for the remainder of 2008, and should make his dressage debut in the spring of 2009. We also hope to show in in the hunter ring by the summer of 2009 before he gets back to his jumper roots in 2010! Owned by Bobburk Farm, Figaro B will stand at Rising Star Farm. His first foal will arrive in 2009. Figaro B is EVA negative and vaccinated.

I'm hoping my hunter stallion dreams are going to come true with Fig. The last couple of months have been so exciting, watching Fig working and starting over fences with our hunter rider.

Here's a picture from today (third day over fences)!

I love his rhythmic canter and the fact that he gets to the base of the jump every time! He also is about 75% for lead changes - with great natural ability! Hooray, I think I finally have my hunter stallion :clap:
