By the outstanding stallion Sir Donnerhall, Secret Romance inherits exceptional movement, presence, and proven performance ability. Sir Donnerhall has been a champion throughout his career—winning his performance test, becoming Bundeschampion as a five-year-old, and later Vice World Young Horse Champion. Trained to Grand Prix himself, he is ranked among the top dressage sires, known for producing horses with both talent and rideability.

On the dam side, Secret Romance is out of the homebred mare Faside Victoria’s Secret, a daughter of the exceptional Vitalis. Vitalis is one of the most influential modern dressage stallions, known for his huge, elastic trot, rhythmic canter, and exceptional rideability. His offspring have dominated young horse championships and elite auctions, consistently demonstrating quality, athleticism, and scope for the highest levels of sport.

His sire Sir Donnerhall is by the legendary Sandro Hit, a Bundeschampion and World Champion who has shaped modern dressage breeding worldwide. Combined with the influence of Donnerhall—one of the greatest foundation sires in dressage history—Sir Donnerhall’s pedigree represents a perfect balance of movement, rideability, and proven performance.

On the dam side, Faside Victoria’s Secret brings the powerful influence of Vitalis, whose sire Vivaldi and grandsire Jazz have produced countless Grand Prix horses and leading sires. This damline combines elasticity, modern type, and proven competition success, with generations of performance horses behind it.

The combination of Sir Donnerhall x Vitalis is particularly sought-after, blending expressive movement with rideability and a strong genetic foundation for high-level sport.

Secret Romance is a standout young colt with all the attributes to develop into a top-class dressage horse or future breeding stallion.
