Velantis

Strong, Consistent, Rideable Genetics with Movement
Velantis N

VITALIS / FLORISCOUNT / WOLKENTANZ

​

Velantis N, a 2018, 17.2 hh Hanoverian stallion by Vitalis, is an exciting choice for North American breeders. When paying attention to the European breeding scene, you can’t help but notice that Velantis’ pedigree combination is highly sought after. Those horses carrying his lines show quality, ridability and are sold at record prices. In 2022 again Vitalis and Floriscount produced numerous top licensing candidates and sales for several European breed societies. Besides the high scores and rapid ascend to top performance, the ridability and ease in which they adapt to their environment is unequaled making these young horses fantastic for anyone to ride and own. That is what Christiane Noelting, breeder and owner of Velantis had in mind when combining these genetics which started with the importation of Velantis’ impressive Dam “Fleur D’Amour”

Velantis himself is true to his proven pedigree. Christian Hartung, his rider, says: "Working with Velantis has been an amazing experience from day one. He is very intelligent, focused, and a quick learner no matter what I ask of him. I was very impressed with how brave he is – showing in the large indoor in Rancho Murietta the first time at barely 4 years old, he did not even flinch. At the end of the season, we walked into the Equidome to receive our Championship awards at the LA Equestrian Center, I didn't have to worry about him being distracted by the surroundings or other horses."

In 2022 a successful first season in the showring was followed by stallion licensing and a successful stallion performance test scoring 8,7.5,8,8,8 -7.9 overall, ranking him as youngest and top 5 out of 17 stallions presented in North America. Velantis’ numerous scores over 80% in FEI classes fulfilled his performance requirements granting him lifetime breeding approval in 2023.

Velantis is a culmination of modern high-performance genetics and we have high expectations for his offspring. Exceptional quality fresh and frozen semen is now available daily for your mares.
