Avebury WF is an incredibly athletic and kind young stallion that is the result of over 40 years of genetic selection at Watermark Farm. Avebury WF draws attention first with his lovely dark grey dapples, beautiful head and then with his calm and relaxed demeanor. His large powerful gaits are all correct and elastic, and his jumping technique is phenomenal. Avebury’s affectionate nature and respectful demeanor make him a delight to work around and a pleasure to ride. He is an intelligent stallion who is well aware of his masculinity but constantly focused on the human near him. His effortless engagement and powerful motions are pleasing to both the eye and the rider. His canter is ground covering with great reach of the foreleg and engagement of the hindquarter. Avebury’s trot covers ground with clearly defined freedom in the shoulder and overstep. Over fences he is careful, quick and bold with good technique and excellent scope.

Through his father line of Adamant, “Dillon” (as he is known around the barn) has brought together the strong qualities of Absatz, Dominus, Duellant and Goldfish II. Celle's action trotter Absatz can be proud of this descendant! The combination of the proven Hanoverian ‘A’ line with "D", "R" and "G" offers breeders access to some of the best German bloodlines in the world. Through his dam line, Avebury WF stems from Dekor, imported from the legendary Vornholz stud farm and a grandson of Duellant, as well as a grandson of the immortal Ramses AA. Avebury’s beautiful face clearly shows the stamp of the ‘R’ line.

We at Watermark Farm are delighted with Avebury’s good nature and exemplary work ethic; he is a credit to his sire Adamant.  Like all of our other Dekor offspring, his superior gaits please the eye but are very comfortable, balanced and light to the aids. His damline has produced several FEI horses, multiple A/O jumpers and one of Watermark Farm’s finest foxhunters. Even though Avebury is destined for the dressage arena, the dual talent of his ancestral heritage should not be overlooked.

Avebury WF’s cooled and frozen semen is offered with a 2-year LFG, via Select Breeders Services of Colora, MD. SBS will be performing all Watermark Farm breeding services in 2006. Due to competition scheduling, Avebury WF may be unavailable for breeding service from time to time. Please contact us so that any conflicts can be avoided. We will post any dates well in advance (6-8 weeks) so that Mare Owners are aware of his itinerary. Frozen semen will be available in lieu of Fresh Cooled during these dates.
