Fürst Wilhelm

Information

About - Fürst Wilhelm is a stallion with an enviable pedigree, and a modern, elegant type. He moves with notable spring and cadence, with a fluid, expressive trot and a rhythmic, balanced canter. 

Performance - Fürst Wilhelm won several young horse classes and competed at medium level, being trained to advanced level before being used mostly for breeding. He took his 30-day performance test in Neustadt-Dosse in 2009, finishing with good scores, and then qualified easily for the Bundeschampionat to complete the licensing requirements. 

Sire - Fürst Heinrich was a World Champion as a young horse before his untimely death as seven-year-old. He only sired a few crops of foals, yet they included numerous top horses such as Fürstenball, who was the Oldenburg champion stallion in 2008, and Woodlander Farouche, double World Young Horse Champion and unbeaten internationally. His influence in such a short time is overwhelmingly positive, and he has more than 40 licensed sons including Franz Ferdinand, Fürst Wilhelm, Feinrich and Fürst Schufro. 

Damline - Fürst Wilhelm is from the mother line that produced the famous mare Love Story. His dam's pedigree of Sandro Hit x De Niro x Rubinstein contains grand prix horses at every level. Sandro Hit was World Champion and Bundeschampion, while De Niro has sired countless grand prix horses and championship medallists, and has led the WBFSH Sire Rankings four times in five seasons. 

Progeny - Fürst WIlhelm's progeny include the licensed sons Freetown, Frascino, Fürst William, Fair Game and Festivo, as well as a number of premium foals and Verbands premium mares. They are tall, athletic horses like their sire, with good temperaments and ground covering movement. Fair Game particularly stands out from the 16 licensed sons of Fürst Wilhelm. As a former foal price peak (€100,000) and performance test winner, he provided the Westphalian champion stallion in 2020, which was sold for €800,000.
