Forenz is an incredibly bred stallion, combining some of the top European Stallions and Mare Families. Forenz is a stunning young stallion, with exceptional trainability. He has a super character, friendly personality, and a happy and willing attitude.  He has a great body shape and hind leg structure, and movement is very correct and expressive. He has been an absolute delight to start under saddle, and has literally never put a foot wrong. His willingness and rideability traits are extraordinary. So much so that Young Victorian rider, Maddi Growcott broke him in herself while she was here riding other horses.

His sire, For Romance was Champion Stallion of the Oldenburger Licensing in 2011 and sold to Dressurpferde Leistungszentrum Lodbergen for 700,000 euros. Carefully schooled by former auction rider Kira Wulferding and successful in dressage horse tests in classes A through M, this gorgeous stallion celebrated his first triumph in 2016 in advanced classes as well as a place in the top ten at the Nürnberger Burg-Pokal finals in the same year. In late 2017, For Romance’s further athletic development was taken over by Lodbergen’s head trainer, Therese Nilshagen. The pair won silver in both the Intermediaire II tests and the Short Grand Prix.

From Therese, “Romance possesses extremely good rideability and collection. Working together with our trainer Klaus Balkenhol, we now want to concentrate on making him stronger, making optimal use of his excellent hindquarters and work carefully towards Grand Prix sport. Although he is in great demand as a breeding stallion, he is incredibly sweet and will do almost anything for a lump of sugar. He’s also extremely well-behaved, even when other horses are in the arena.”

In 2019 For Romance was awarded Oldenburger Stallion of the Year. He has sired more than 80 premium mares, licensed stallions and numerous championship winners. The dam line of For Romance is the famous Gesina mare family. There are many top stallions, mares and competition horses from this line, including the full brothers to For Romance; For Romance II, Feinrich and Fürst Donnerhall, a full sister Fasine, and half siblings, Best of All, Don Romance, Golden Romance amongst others.

For Romance progeny are in high demand due to their wonderful rideability traits and dressage talent. Forenz has inherited these same traits and offers breeders the added bonus of the incredible Grand Prix blood of Jazz, through his dam Anouk (imp).

Forenz’s dam, Anouk was a Finalist in the PAVO Cup as a 5 year old. She has produced the Licensed KWPN stallion Fellini and his full brother Emerald S, who is a successful Grand Prix competitor. They are both full brothers to Amarouk, who is also standing at stud with us at Bloomfield Farm. Anouk is a 3/4  sibling to the sensational KWPN Stallion of the Year, Dark President. The granddam of Anouk and Dark President also produced the famous Dutch stallion, Houston.  

Forenz was started under saddle as a rising 4 year old and his training will continue in the coming Spring. 

He is a very exciting young stallion who we are very proud to have standing at stud.
