Take a look at my Holsteiner stallion Condios at http://morningside-stud.com
He's producing very good eventers and showjumpers with high rideability.

A 6-y-o gelding by Condios just won a novice event in Ireland. (That horse was the 4-y-o Future Event Horse League Vice-Champion.) There are several successful eventers by Condios in the UK, also.

His chilled semen can be sent to the UK with EU health papers.

Condios is approved by 12 studbooks so there are many options to register the foal.

I would be a little wary about putting Stedinger onto a TB, as his youngsters can be hot. Should know...have one at home out of a half TB mare by Prince Thatch, and boy does she have attitude just now...

Have you looked at any of the Quainton Stallions as there are many there from Holstein origins as well. As Tom has said Morningside have some lovely stallions as well. Or there are the stallions of Brookhouse or the Pidgleys. Or look through the various breed society websites at their stallions to see if any catch your eye..

Or what about some of the Catherston stallions?

Sambertino is nearly half TB & good at putting a "sensible" head on his progeny - last year a 5yr old daughter out of a TB dam won at BE Novice & qualified for the PAVO Eventing champs.

Souvenir is another stallion who may be worth considering - he is a 17.0hh Black Hanoverian & Oldenburg approved stallion who had good jumping scores on his performance test, although he competes in Dressage. He also has a calm temperament & is line bred to Argentan.

Holstein and Oldenburg aren't the best known stud books when it comes to producing eventers.

Kannan has had kids in the World Championships at Le Lion d'Angers, he's known for temperament, movement, scope and a good mouth, but you must be using a true blood type mare: http://www.frenchstallions.org/french_stallion_detail.php?stallion=2007016

Hoggar Mail is also producing eventers, again giving movement, temperament and scope. He's also the uncle of Jaguar Mail: http://www.frenchstallions.org/french_stallion_detail.php?stallion=2007023

Lord Calando is a Holsteiner if that's what you're looking for. He's the uterine brother of Carthago Z, but carries a lot of blood. He's a proven sire of international jumpers, but is also well used as an eventing sire in France, he gives movement and looks: http://www.frenchstallions.org/french_stallion_detail.php?stallion=2007017

Then the obvious Jaguar Mail, who has covered all of the best eventing mares in the UK, there has to be a reason for that. The youngstock I've seen in the UK already, is truly stunning: http://www.frenchstallions.org/french_stallion_detail.php?stallion=2007009

The semen from these stallions is already in the UK and ready to ship.

Take a look at the Quainton Stud Stallions (Holsteiner, Zangersheide, Westphalian). In particular you may want to look at Chadron Quainton, a lot of eventers have been breeding to him as he has lovely dressage quality movement, a big forward reaching jump and a very easy going and willing personality. He also has good bone and size to him.

I too like Chadron Quainton. Of the Quainton boys I am also partial to Stallone Quainton and Classic Quainton - both their younger stallions.
Have a look also at Caretino Glory and Brendon Stud. He is being used a LOT for producing eventing stock and does throw bigger stock if you want to put some size on the foal. We have one at my yard by him and out of an eventing mare and he really is a top class eventing type yearling. I also teach a couple people with Caretino Glory sired pot eventers coming up who are nice and Pippa Funnel's eventer grand prix mare, The Tourmaline Rose has also had a couple of foals to him.
Another couple of good continental stallions are Chico's Boy (sire of BEF event champ. Classic Primitive) and also a young stallion called Sandro Beast who stands at Enterbrook stud (www.enterbrook.nl). He is classically bred, being by Sandro Boy and so having very classic SJ and Dressage bloodlines. He himself could easily SJ or do pure Dressage and recently graded as Excellent with the Zangersheide studbook.

The deceased Holsteiner stallion Cavalier Royale was been the best or one of the best sires of international eventing horses in recent years, according to the WBFSH rankings. He made his contribution when bred to mares in Ireland.

If one consults the data one will find that there are many internatioanal eventing horses that are Holsteiner or have 50% or more Holsteiner blood. For a studbook that produces only 3,500 foals a year it makes a major contribution to eventing breeding. And it is a studbook and breeding culture that puts a high value on rideability.

My advanced mare is half Holstein by Landino.
I'd also give a thuimbs up for Chico's Boy as eventrider said, moves and jumps!
Wouldn't consider Sir Donnerhall for an eventer, wrong movement IMHO - those Xc shots are just from the performance test which all stallions have to do in Germany, dressage bred or not.

Get yourself to the stallion parade on Easter monday as plenty of jumping stallions there
