Afternoon Delight

(Donner Bube – Highland Fling)

This 2001 mare gained Premium status in the Canadian Warmblood registry in part due to her excellent movement.

With Donner Bube (Donnerhall/Pik Bube I/Grundstein I) and Wodan (Winnetou/Luckner/Frustra II) in her immediate lineage, she is related to an astounding number of top performance horses in both dressage and showjumping. And her second dam, a mare known as Salty, has consistently produced athletes in jumping and eventing.

Afternoon Delight is a half-sibling (same dam) to a jumper (5’ 3”) and a successful eventer (national Pony Club level). The geldings Don Remarko and Daybreak Dancer in this sale are also her half siblings.

Her conformation is that of a versatile broodmare.

As a broodmare, she has been a consistent producer, which is in keeping with the fact that she hails from one of the strongest producing dam lines that the breeders have.

She is the dam of Rumblestiltskin and Rü in this sale plus Pennywise and Whitney in Sale #2.

Afternoon Delight is in foal to the Hanoverian First Pleasure (pictured below).

Trainers Perspective:

Delight is a calm, gentle mare that was broke in her youth.  She is affectionate, easy to catch, groom, lead, tack up and is well broke.  She is also a great broodmare.
