Cooldanz -  Oldenburg Registry North America’s 2005  Horse of the Year DSHB 3 Year Old Colt/Gelding Materiale - with scores to 75.1% .

In April '06 Cooldanz was chosen for the cover of Horse Deals, a UK magazine distributed in England. Australia and New Zealand. Cooldanz’s rider in the cover photo is Elly Schobel. Cooldanz is by Hilltop Farm’s Caprimond son Contucci.

Cooldanz was bred by Izabela Jedral of Brandywine Maryland USA (see our sales page for Ms. Jedral's contact information) and is out of Ms. Jedral's branded Oldenburg Main Mare Book mare Dressen Fancy (who is currently in foal to Sandro Hit for 2006).

4 Mar 2006:  Just giving you a quick update. Cooldanz has started to be ridden and he is truly fantastic, he is unbelievably well schooled and so well behaved , it is hard to believe he hasn’t been ridden for 2 months , he’s an absolute saint. It such a shame we have to send him off to training as we enjoy him so much having him so close to home, being able to nip across the road whenever I want, to see him. But he won’t be putting pintos on the map there so unfortunately he will have to go out there and show everyone what he is made of, and make us all proud ( or should I say make all the pintos out there proud). Just to finish I would like to add what an amazing job Ellie has done with this horse, it will give him a massive advantage for the future.

 Cooldanz was trained by Elly Schobel. Elly Schobel was the winning rider of the 2004 North American Breeders Futurity on her six year-old AWR gelding Raison d'Etre.  Elly's superb care and her skill, dedication  and discipline allowed Cooldanz to blossom in training, fulfilling all the promise of his pedigree.  

At the time of his sale to England, Cooldanz and Elly were on track to compete in 2006 at First Level Test One in preparation for the Four Year-Old Championships in Lexington Kentucky and and the  Four Year-Old North American Breeders Futurity (NABF) at Devon, PA as well as the Four Year-Old Dressage Futurity in 2006. 

Photos above taken by Elly Schobel in mid September 2005.  Elly always referred to Cooldanz as The Cool One (TCO).

Cooldanz's dam Dressen Fancy (pictured left with her 2004 Rosenthal filly), is a Main Mare Book Oldenburg mare, branded with the Oldenburg  O and Crown in 1995. Dressen Fancy was a PREMIUM GOV -  Oldenburg Registry North America filly who went on to be the  GOV ~ Oldenburg Registry North America 1995  Reserve North American Foal Champion.  In 2005 Dressen Fancy's Sandro Hit colt Sandanz was awarded PREMIUM (with an 8.5 for movement) and went on to be named Colt Champion at his Oldenburg Registry North America ~ Mare Foal Inspection held on July 26, 2005 at Silverwood Farm. Dressen Fancy's dam is also the dam of the 2005 Colt Champion at Hilltop Farm.  Dressen Fancy is by Duellglanz (Han) who sired the winner of the the 2002 One Hundred Days Test and many other FEI horses.    

Cooldanz is by the Elite Hanoverian Stallion Contucci (Caprimond/Lungau/Akzent II.)  Cooldanz's sire Contucci (Hanoverian owned by Hilltop Farm), is the top producer in the US for the 3rd year in a row, producing nearly double the number of USDF/Cosequin Champions than any other stallion, domestic or imported.  Contucci's sire Caprimond is ranked #1 on the VhW "Jahrbuch's" ranking of stallions for production of "Type." He is also listed as #11 on their ranking of dressage sires (500 stallions ranked). Reserve Champion at the 1987 stallion approvals in Neumunster, Caprimond later became Champion of his 100-Day test in Adelheidsdorf with a dressage index of 147.76. At the very early age of seven, Caprimond was successfully partaking in FEI dressage competition and had a successful career at Grand Prix. 

As a breeding stallion, Cooldanz provides new world-class bloodlines to pinto breeding. He is not related to Samber (or Samber's dam Tina). Therefore he is not related to Art Deco, Ico, Rainbow, Sempatico or any Samber line decedents.  Cooldanz can be safely bred to virtually every colored SportHorse mare in the world.    

So, here's to Cooldanz's future, while looking back with a smile...
