Fabuleux is a Class I Stallion who successfully completed his 100-Day Test in Adelheidsdorf where his exceptional scores included Walk 9, Trot 9, Canter 10, Temperament 9, Rideability 9, Willingness to Work 9. He received the outstanding dressage score of 130.45 points. After his licensing in Verden, he was purchased by leading international dressage stable, Gestüt Hoeftehof, where he competed successfully with rider Holga Finken.
Fabuleux’s sire, Fabriano was Champion of his 100-Day Test. According to the Hengtesbuch 2003, Fabriano scored 136 on his mare’s dressage qualities, 125 on their jumping abilities and 157 on their foundation (leg scores/correctness) making him one of the very few stallions on the Hanoverian Verband’s “Toplist” for siring both outstanding dressage and jumping qualities. Dr. Wilkens, managing director of the VhW, calls Fabriano “one of the best performance horse producers of Hanover’s breeding program today”.
Fabuleux’s dam, SPS Auguste (Augustinus xx/Absatz), full sister to licensed stallion Aquamarin, was an immensely successful broodmare and producer of four state premium mares and two licensed stallions. She represents six generations of SPS mares. Her offspring have in turn produced States Premium mares and successful German sport horses.
Fabuleux’s 2005 foals are exceeding expectations and excelling at breed shows and inspections across the United States and Canada. Facette was Filly Champion, Young Horse Champion and Reserve Grand Champion at the 2005 KDA Breeders Classic as a two month old. She repeated these honors and was again Reserve Grand Champion at five months of age at the MSEDA Breed Show. Facette, along with Faust won the Get of Sire Class at Eden Park DSHB with a 78+ score. Finian, Facette, Future Perfect, Fortunato WSHS, Farley, Florian RW, Figaro, Fancy Curtain Call and Frangelica are among the Fabuleux offspring who have been named Champion or Reserve Champion Foals at their inspections in 2005.
