\"Flemmingh<\/a><\/h1>\n

1987 – 2007 \u2013 171 cm Bay<\/strong><\/p>\n

Breeder: H. C. Albertsen\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

The famed Dutch breeder, Wiepke van der Lageweg found his key foundation stock in neighbouring Germany, particularly in the Holstein area. One of his best buys was the bay colt, Flemmingh, although I am sure that Wiepke, who is a jumping man at heart, had no idea he was buying a stallion who would found a dressage line!<\/p>\n

Flemmingh has all the great Holstein jumping names on his pedigree. His dam line combines the blood of the French import Cor de la Bry\u00e8re with the Holstein stalwart, Farnese, with a double dose of Thoroughbred on his grand-dam\u2019s line.<\/p>\n

Flemmingh placed third in his performance test in 1990, scoring three 9s, including a 9 for jumping. In the 1992\/3 edition of Jacob Melissen\u2019s The Leading Sires of The Netherlands<\/em>, Flemmingh is described as having \u2018fine movements, an active, roomy walk, a rich trot and a good canter. He is a careful jumper with a lot of talent. He showed to be a willing worker and never seems to tire. In the jury report, Flemmingh was described as having sufficient talent in dressage and a lot of promise as a jumper. His first offspring are distinguished by their size and splendid movements.\u2019 But even so, the promotional photo, shows Flemmingh over a jump.<\/p>\n

\"Competing<\/a><\/p>\n

Competing for Holland, Lingh and Edward Gal\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

Fourteen years later in Jacob\u2019s latest directory, the jump shot has gone and the emphasis is on Flemmingh the dressage sire, and with good reason: two of his stallion sons, Krack C and Lingh have competed in the Dutch dressage team. In Holland there are dozens of his offspring competing at a national level, and Flemmingh has been an internationally successful sire of young horse competitors \u2013 Wladimir was the champion of the Swedish 3 year old dressage horses, while Up To Date was the champion of the 5 year olds in the USA.<\/p>\n

Flemmingh was ranked 6th on the WBFSH dressage sires standings for 2008. In 2013, he is ranked 50th<\/sup>, with points earned by Wipsy vh Heihof and Reve d\u2019Or.<\/p>\n

On the KWPN 2015\/16 breeding values, he is in 28th place on the ranking of stallions with a reliability of over 90%, with a value of 123 (98%). He has produced 3122 progeny over 4, with 1051 competitors, a ratio of 33.664%.<\/p>\n

This graph, compiled by Gemma Alexander in April 2021, shows how influential Flemmingh continues to be:<\/p>\n
