Breeding

Riverman, R-Ventures dams sire is an honest, reliable stallion. He exemplifies a beautiful, modern type with an excellent friendly character, easy going temperament and willingness to work. All three of Riverman’s gaits have excellent reach. His walk is pure and his trot shows impulsion and power. The canter is especially nice with lots of power and balance. Riverman is one of those rare stallions with all-around athletic ability. At his stallion test in Ermelo in 2001, he was the Champion of the test – placing 3rd in the dressage portion and 2nd in jumping – one of the few stallions to show such talent and then go on to compete successfully in both disciplines. As a jumper Riverman has very good form, a great approach to the fences and good take off technique. His has a nice bascule and excellent hind end use, finishing the jump well. He is very careful and shows a good deal of scope. Riverman is now competing in dressage. He loves the work and makes changes look easy!

His offspring are also talented jumpers and beautiful, supple movers with fantastic minds. To date Riverman has sired 17 Star mares, 2 keur mares, and 17 sons have been selected for the stallion show. His offspring have competed in the Pavo Cup and Vion Trophy championships for young dressage horses and jumpers in the Netherlands.

R-ventures dams, dam line is also exceptional. Risula is by Flemmingh who is an internationally recognized stallion, he has established a fine stallion line, and is considered by many to be the greatest producer of dressage horses of today. His most famous progeny are grand prix stallion Krack-C ridden by Anky Van Grunsven. He is a true ambassador of sport and breeding for the KWPN and Lingh ridden by Edward Gal. Flemmingh has a high dressage index though his lines are predominantly jumping he carries the blood of the movement upgrader carneval. Landgfaf 1, son of Lacapo goes back on the dam side via Capitano to the famous sport mare Sarbit, who caused a international sensation under the name Gera, she is Grandam and Great Grandam of grand prix horses Cera and Fein Cera. Flemmingh's famous dam line 3558 is responsible a series of first class show jumpers. Flemmingh's progeny like work and are very quick to learn and are saught after by dressage riders.

Perhaps the most important aspect regarding venturas breeding is the double input of the showjumping great "Voltaire". Voltaire jumped internationally under Jos Lansink and Emile Hendrix. Voltaire, is one of the most influential showjumping sires of the present day, and is the result of crossing two outstanding bloodlines: Furioso II and Gotthard. Furioso II produced over 200 state premium mares and at least 70 approved stallions of which several are standing at stud in other continents. The full brother of Furioso II is the French stallion Mexico. His son Le Mexico is a familiar name in breeding and frequently appears in the pedigrees of showjumping superstars. The dams sire Gotthard is, now more than 15 years after his death, almost a legend in German sport horse breeding and his name is simply a synonym for the Hannoverian showjumper. Offspring such as Goldika, Goya, Queensway and Genius to name but a few of the best of Gotthard’s top class performing progeny. Gotthard’s strength is continued in his sons and grandsons but also indirectly on the dam side of, for example, Grundstein and Grannus.
