Benidetto
Approved Hanoverian Stallion by Belissimo M. (Belissimo M X Crispy sweet X Cordoba)
After an extremely successful small tour career, Benidetto has proven to be a solid Grand Prix horse stepping foot into the International ring for the first time in the winter of 2017.
While he continues to grow at the Grand Prix Level, getting better and better each time, his offspring continue to impress. The success of his offspring is no surprise when looking at his past and lineage. His sire, Belissimo M, finished his own 30-Day Test with superior results, no less than four scores of perfect 10s! He also won the Bundeschampionat at four years of age. Benidetto’s dam, SPS Crispy Sweet, stems from a successful damline too. Her granddam, SPS Wienerin, was suc-essful in Grand Prix dressage with Inge Schmezer, and later with Marcela Krinke-Susmeli/SUI Westwall was second ranked after Weltmeyer at his Stallion Test.
Offspring
Benidetto’s offspring have both correct conformation and exceptional temperaments making them easy to train. Many of his older offspring are showing promise for the FEI!
