Segnorita is confirmed in foal to Ferdeaux (Bordeaux keur/Ferro pref) due Spring 2025 - available to reserve in utero
Segnorita is a lovely, well bred mare. She is confident and forward thinking, with just the right amount of sensitivity. Her walk is exceptionally correct, has swing and ample freedom in the shoulder. Her trot is cadenced, with great rhythm and lift and her canter is uphill, bold, and ground covering.
Segnorita started her dressage career in Germany prior to being imported to Canada and then later the US. She was accepted into a top Knapstrupper breeding program where she was graded Premium by Westfalen. Both her 2021 Knabstrupper colt and her 2022 Knapstrupper filly, were awarded Premium by Westfalen, with remarks on their exceptional build and elastic and uphill movement.
Segnorita has been inspected by the American Hanoverian Society, accepted into the AHS and ARS Main Mare Books and was awarded High Scoring AHS Mare at her inspection. Her 2024 AHS filly was praised for her excellent type, phenomenal confirmation, and expressive movement.
Pedigree
Segnorita’s sire - Scuderia
Sir Donnerhall I x Esmiralda (Escudo)
Segnorita’s sire, Scuderia, produced 15 state premium mares and 3 licensed stallions during his breeding career before being purchased by German rider, Selina Söder, who rode him through PSG/Inter I. Notably, Scuderia is the grandsire of stallion, Be Sure, who stands at Helgstrand in Denmark. During his stallion performance test, Be Sure was awarded reserve champion, with consistently high scores of 9.0 for his trot, canter, rideability and performance. Scuderia’s sire, Sir Donnerhall I, needs little introduction. He is a foundation stallion, producing 101 licensed stallions. As of 2022, he is ranked 4th on the FEI World Ranking for dressage horses. He was second reserve champion at his licensing, stallion performance test winner, Ia main premium sire in 2005 and in 2006 Bundeschampion, and vice World Champion of five year old dressage horses.
Segnorita’s dam - Windsor World
Weltmeyer x Baronin (Bretano II)
Segnoita’s dam, Windsor World, is by the legendary Weltmeyer. According to the American Hanoverian Society, “Weltmeyer continues to almost single-handedly reshape the Hanoverian breed." He was the 1986 winner of the stallion licensing in Verden, and the 1987 winner of the stallion performance test in Adelheidsdorf. In the same year Weltmeyer also won the three-year-old stallions classification at the Federal Championships of German Riding Horses in Warendorf. In 1988 he was honored in Verden as best stallion of his age-group and awarded with the "Freiherr von Stenglin-Prize". One year later he became DLG Champion 1989 in Frankfurt. And last but not least he became "Hanoverian Stallion of the Year" in 1998. As of today, Weltmeyer has produced 70 licensed sons, all of them are excellent stallions.
