Born in 2023, this beautiful young gelding is currently standing at 15.2hh and is expected to mature at approximately 15.3hh.

He is the sort of youngster that is becoming increasingly difficult to find. Sweet, kind and incredibly genuine, he has a wonderful temperament and an old head on young shoulders. Despite his age, he approaches life with maturity, confidence and a willingness to learn, making him a real pleasure to handle and work with.

With further education and schooling, he has all the ingredients to excel in whichever direction his new owner chooses. Whether you’re looking for a family horse, a mother and daughter share, a happy hacking partner, riding club all-rounder or a competition prospect, he has the versatility and attitude to develop into something very special.

He is clean limbed with no vices, lumps or bumps, has excellent manners and truly ticks all the boxes on anyones checklist.

Pedigree

His pedigree is packed with proven international bloodlines.

His sire, Sea Moon, was a high-class middle-distance racehorse with a Timeform rating of 127, winning five races and competing successfully at the very highest level. He is renowned for passing on athleticism, scope, stamina and an excellent temperament to his offspring.

Behind him sits the influential Cape Cross, one of the modern Thoroughbred breed’s great stallions. A Group 1-winning racehorse himself, Cape Cross became world famous as the sire of champions including Sea The Stars and Ouija Board, adding class, movement and versatility to generations of horses.

Further back is the legendary Green Desert, one of the most influential stallions of recent decades. A multiple Group-winning sprinter and outstanding sire, Green Desert established a dynasty recognised throughout both racing and sport horse breeding for producing athletic, trainable horses with quality, courage and exceptional movement.

This is a young gelding with the pedigree and temperament to enjoy a bright future. He combines quality breeding with a genuine, affectionate nature, making him equally appealing to someone wanting a dependable partner to enjoy every day or an ambitious rider looking to produce a quality horse for the future.

Young horses with this combination of bloodlines, sensible outlook and kind temperament don’t come along everyday.

• Warmblood

• Filly
• 2 years
• 17hh / 173cm

• Very nicely bred to realistically have enormous potential in any of the Olympic disciplines.
• Fantastic mover, very athletic & incredibly elegant. This girl is a real head turner & very stylish!
• Fantastic nature; she is level headed, genuinely kind, calm & a wise head on shoulders so young.

This lovely looking filly is bursting with calm, graceful presence. She has a beautiful head, kind eye and is a tall elegant horse with a generous nature and natural talent in abundance. She moves with expression, elevation and very pleasing balance and although primarily bred to jump; her sire GFS Illuminati is starting to make a real mark in Dubai as his career has commenced with superb national dressage results.

GFS Luminita is a lovely young horse to work with in every situation, she has been professionally handled from birth and her manners are exceptional both in and out of the stable. She is very intelligent and trusting and this makes her very calm even in situations where she is unsure. I cannot put into words how lovely the nature of this young horse is, she is simply very kind.
Luminita is vice free and a pleasure to spend time with. I think she will be wonderful too, when started under saddle as she is such a brave, confident and trusting young horse who genuinely likes people and has a strong desire to please.

The dam of this lovely girl is Quirilina Z is a Zangersheide mare who jumped with success at 1.20 on an FEI passport and has a good BSJA record with her previous amateur owner. Her sire Quirifino Z successfully competed for several years at 1.60m with Ben Maher, coming 4th in the Hickstead Derby among numerous other winnings at Grand Prix level, including competing at the Global Champions Tour 2009 & 2010. He is a very versatile stallion having produced both show jumpers and eventers. He is renowned for passing his laid back nature to his offspring.

Quidam de Revel, Quirifino's sire is one of the most influential breeding stallions of all time. His offspring are highly sought after as they have huge scopy jumps, but remain ultra careful. In 2004 Quidam topped the World Breeding Championships jumping stallion ratings for the second year, establishing him as the per-eminent (and most expensive) living sire of showjumping horses.

Quirifino's dam sire Grosso Z produced the international jumping star Goldfever and the international dressage stallion Goethe.
Her damsire Lorentin I is a famous Holsteiner dressage stallion which may well explain her phenomenal movement! He competed at Grand Prix level and sired top dressage progeny including L'Acteur and Limocello. Fleming her dams Holstein grand sire also competed at Grand Prix dressage.

The sire of this exciting youngster is GFS Illuminatii a young home bred stallion who has proven himself a sire of potentially exceptional foals in 2023, he once again produced two more fantastic foals for us in 2024 before being sold to a professional home in Dubai where he has started his career under saddle and already showing tremendous talent and achieving great results!
His sire is also a home bred and we produced his sire to Novice eventing - Paddy of Liosin. His dam was a Premium Graded Holsteiner mare and ex show jumper with placings German Kl.L + Kl.M and her breeding was exceptional. She was by Corrado I (Cor de la Bryere/Capitol I x X Landgraf/Caletto )

Corrado combines the blood of the two great Cs – Cor de la Bryère and Capitol. He won the Grand Prix of Leeuwarden in 1993, and were second in the Nations Cup at La Baule. In 1994, Corrado won the World Cup Qualifier at Dortmund and finished third in the Nations Cup at Aachen. He also won the German Championship that year. In 1996, he won the Danish World Cup Qualifier at Aarhus, and the Grand Prix of Neumünster and Kiel. In 1997, Franke and Corrado were third in the Hamburg Grand Prix and fourth in the Grand Prix of Göteborg.
As a sire, Corrado was again, an instant success. His international jumpers were numerous and too many to list; perhaps his most spectacular son is the grey stallion, Clinton, who was individually 4th at the Olympic Games in Athens, and second behind Shutterfly at Aachen in 2005.
Fifteen Corrado sons have been approved for breeding in Holstein and his sons, Corofino I, Coriano, Coronado and Clinton have themselves already produced licensed sons.
By the end of 2006, Corrado I recorded with 95 progeny who had jumped at an international level.

His maternal G.Grandsires are none other than the legendary Cor de la Bryère and Landgraf. Described by breeders as a 'gift from heaven', Cor de la Bryère has had an incredible impact on the Holsteiner breed, occurring in more than 70% of Holsteiner pedigrees, and is credited for improving the breed's jumping technique. He also had a huge impact on the Oldenburg breed.

‘Landgraf dominated the breeding scene in Schleswig-Holstein for over ten years. The success of his offspring both in terms of breeding and sport performance led to the demand for the stallion becoming almost insatiable. Nearly sixty colts by Landgraf I have been licensed for the Holsteiner studbook.

Illuminati's dam, It's Magic was a remarkable mare of both quality and talent. Graded into the Westfalian Head Stud Book, she is by Hogwart the International Grand Prix showjumping stallion and Westfalian Stallion Champion (Concorde/Voltaire/Nimmerdor) This is a stallion of such quality that he is Licensed into the Belgium Warmblood, Holsteiner, KWPN, NRPS (Dutch) and Westfalian Studbooks. She was out of a Cassini/Caletto mare whose pedigree is steeped in International showjumpers.

Magic was something of a dream mare to own. Aside from her obvious talent, incredible movement and rare beauty, she had the greatest attitude and most generous nature imaginable. This is something that is a common theme throughout Illuminati's pedigree. Having owned or bred many generations of this young stallions parentage, I know them to be of faultless temperament, unquestionable rideability and horses who have the talent and attitude to be exceptional in every way.

Before her retirement due to injury and sadly prior to actually fulfilling her huge potential in competition, she jumped successfully to 1.20, with wins to BSJA Foxhunter and Notational winnings of £1153 (There are video's of her competing on our Broodmare Page.
Her paternal G.Sire Concorde was solidly bred to jump on both sides. Aside from his sire, Voltaire, his dam, Flyer, was by the legendary Marco Polo.

Concorde was an international jumper with Jos Lansink. They won the Grand Prix of Nordrhein-Westfalen at Aachen and they were Champion of the Netherlands in 1994. For three years in a row, Concorde was the sire with the most offspring at the World Breeding Championships for Young Jumping Horses. In the year 2001 alone, Concorde produced 17 jumpers who entered Grand Prix ranks.

It's Magic's maternal G.Sires were the International breeding stallion Cassini I and Lord Caletto GZ. Cassini was one of the most successful Holstein stallions of all time, sired by Capitol I out of the mare Wisma who is a daughter of Caletto II. Lord Caletto was a Life Approved Holstein stallion. His International Sports Stallion status made Lord Calletto gz in a class of his own ! He won his 100 day performance test with 145 points in dressage (1st) and 138 points in jumping (1st) Lord Caletto is also one of the few stallions to have received Elite status Grading from the AES awarded by Kees Van Den Oetelaar . He was also graded with the swiss fed and the BWBS . Lord Caletto is also on the GOLD BRITISH SHOWJUMPING ELTE REGISTER OF STALLIONS . He won several times over 2,10m and higher, won six-bars at 1,80-1,90-2,00-2,10men
