Comments:

Raffaello is an imported 16.3hh 100 day tested an approved Hannoverian stallion. His is by the proven producer Raphael sire of numerous top level international jumping and dressage horses including Radiator, Robinson, Rio Grande, Ravallo, Ragazoni and more.
Raffaello's dam, Fiola, is by the sadly deceased Foxhunter (Spruce Meadows) who is by Watzmann. Watzmann produced an Olympic gold medallist. Foxhunter's dam carries the blood of both Inschallah and Absatz. Fiola's dam is by Don Juan from the same D line that produced the International show jumper Dollar Girl amongst many other top jumpers and successful stallions such as Drosselklang.
In his 100 day test, Raffaello scored 9's for his temperament, willingness to work, ability to work, character and jumping, placing him 4th out of 37 stallions in the jumping component of his test. The judges at his 100 day test in Germany stated 'He is very careful and has tremendous scope over fences. He is also a nice type and very good mover'.
Raffaello competed extensively in 2005, his first year showing and at stud, winning in showjumping and placing in the Pacific Regional Dressage Championship show.
In Zangersheide magazine 2000, Raffaello was chosen by Henk Bouwman amoungst the ten stallions selected as outstanding jumper talents, out of all the stallion inspections for Hanover, Holsteiner, Oldenberg, Westfalian and Trakehner studbooks in 1999. Raffaello is now competing and reaching his potential.
