Romulus’ pedigree is filled with some of the best bloodlines available for pony breeding. His sire Premium stallion Renoir by Welsh B stallion Racket, started his career with a win of the Westphalian Riding Pony Championships and a Bronze medal at the Bundeschampionat for Riding ponies. The following year he regained his Bronze medal at the Bundeschampionat and concluded his Performance Test with outstanding marks of 8,0 for paces, 9,0 for jumping under saddle, 9.5 for rideability and 10.0 for willingness to work. These marks reflect the suitability for pony breeding as ultimately, they are bred for children to ride. After his Performance Test Renoir was trained and competed successfully to Advanced-Medium/FEI level.

His offspring include graded Pony stallion Rodrigo as well as Rembrandt DDH. Under Dutch Pony rider Maria van Dungen Rembrandt DDH achieved Dressage FEI placings never lower that 4th place and won European Team Gold in 2010 and Team Silver in 2009. Rembrandt DDH was talked about as the ‘Totilas’ of ponies and was invited to do a showcase with the ‘real’ Totilas at Zwolle International/NED. After Rembrandt’s sale to Great Britain Maisie Scruton was also selected for the European Championships in 2011, where the British Team finished 4th and Rembrandt 9th in the Individual and Kur Finals.

Romulus’ dam side is filled with State Premium mares for several generations. His dam St. Pr. St. Donna Dendera was also a winner of the Westphalian Mare Elite Show. Her sire Don Joshi I AT is also no stranger to top placings and red ribbons. The son of multi-champion Dressman I, European Pony Dressage Champion in 2002 and 2003, was Reserve Bundeschampion in 2001 , won the Bundeschampionship for 6-year old Dressage Ponies in 2002 and was subsequently nominated reserve pony for the European Championships, ironically a reserve for his sire Dressman I.

From his first crop, Depardieu AT was Stallion champion at the Westphalian stallion licensing and his daughter Diamond Lady was in the final of the Westphalian Mare Elite show.

He also produced offspring that achieved up to €50,000 at auction and with Der Kleine Prints produced a Bundeschampion in 2007.

Romulus’ great dam sire Pr.H. Dancer can be found in the pedigrees of the most successful Riding Ponies of all time including multi-European Champion Deinhard B, FS Dior de Luxe and FS Champion de Luxe to name a few.

Romulus’ pedigree is second to none within the world of pony breeding and despite the predominantly Dressage lineage, Romulus displays a jump comparable to any top modern stallion and is surely a stallion to contribute vastly to the pony/small horse industry.
