All i know is the horse I know by him is seriously talented but will never reach its potential because of its temperament....

No not much... I found it difficult to find out information about the horse but was very interested as the horse I saw a few years ago had a real affect on me (he was called Troy
)
End House Stud have a stallion by him (Heatley Avalon)... I am sure Atlantus was BWB though so might be worth contacting them

Well if it is definitely AtlantUs, then there should be loads of info to find aobut him! He was imported from Denmark and was a foundation sire of the British Warmblood. He has been acknowledged as being one of the 3 most important WB sires in early British WB breeding - along with Dutch Courage, Demonstrator and Baron B. His stock can be quirky, but are mostly exceptionally talented - just takes a horseman to get along with them IMO!

Atlantus was origionally imported to breed dressage horses but he proved popular with show jumpers. He has thrown a lot of grade A SJs, dressage horses and advanced eventers. I have an advanced event/ grade B sj by him who is extremely talented. However if they get into thw wrong hands, like any horse with 'a bit about them' they may get the upper hand

Sorry, I meant info on whether there was any frozen semen left...
I really wanted to use him on Hannah but did not get anywhere

You'd have to ring the owner up, I dont think there ever was any frozen semen though

I thought she was now in SA? I believe that he was PTS earlier this year - but could be wrong.....

He probably was PTS as he was very old. I last spoke to her a few years ago and she was only using him on a few of her own mares

Yes I heard that memo on my grand quest to use him on Hannah
Never mind eh?!
