DAMONTEZ LS was a beautiful stallion of outstanding quality, bred from a well proven and prolific family that all jump.
DAMONTEZ LS was much admired for his lovely exterior, movement and trainability and noted for his 'European' appearance. Ridden and competed by Tina Fagan, DAMONTEZ LS was a winner and placegetter in 7 year old and amateur show jumping classes. DAMONTEZ LS also delighted crowds with his liberty and ridden demonstrations. With his movement, rhythm and temperament he also lends himself well to competing and producing dressage horses.
DAMONTEZ LS is by the accoladed and versatile jumper SAM I AM LS; whom was originally trained and ridden by John Cottle. SAM I AM is a full brother to DIOMEDES LS, who many will remember as a Grand Prix Show Jumper with Phillip Steiner. DIOMEDES LS was sold to Australia. Another full brother to SAM I AM LS is DELVIN LS; who is presently competing at top level showjumping in the USA.
The first dam of DAMONTEZ LS is DUCHESS LS. DUCHESS LS show jumped successfully up to 1.25m and Novice Horse Trialed in only two seasons under saddle; which once again proves this bloodline to be bold, brave and talented. DUCHESS LS is a full sister to DELTA DAWN LS, who has also produced a SAM I AM LS son, SUNSET SAM LS who currently stands at Longspring Sport Horses.
Breeders: It is an important note to that DAMONTEZ LS’ is a double cross back to his legendary NZ Hanoverian grandsire DISTELFINK by DISKUS out of DOREEN by DUEKER. DISTELFINK was performance
tested in Germany before been imported to New Zealand where he became one of the
countries top sires before his death in 2004, he produced numerous domestic and international
performers. Some of these include jumping sensations: JEEP SUPERMOTH, NRM FALCON, DUTY FREE, DEALER, DIOMEDES and world class eventers: NRM DENVER, GV BRAVEHEART, DANZAR……..
DISTELFINK was not only successful at producing performers but also his broodmare
daughters are now highly sort after in NZ by breeders for producing jumping and dressage
horses!
DISTELFINK was by DISKUS the only stallion by DOMSPATZ to go into the services of the Celle state
stud and produced a number of first class show jumpers including DENIZEN ridden by Tim
Grubb, DOREEN ridden by Tjark Nagel and World Cup winner in 1987 THE NATURAL ridden by
Katherine Burdsall. DOMSPATZ like his son DISKUS was an outstanding sire of
jumpers also and both sires are highly regarded in mare lines today. As late as 1981, on the official
German FN figures of progeny winnings in the sport, DOMSPATZ made it to 8th place in a
very illustrious top ten. (1. Gotthard, 2. Ferdinand, 3.Der Lowe xx, 4.Furioso II, 5.Grande,
6.Ehrenschild, 7.Sender, 8.DOMSPATZ, 9.Perser xx, 10.Ladykiller xx.
DAMONTEZ LS added size, bone and quality to his offspring; in addition to trainable temperaments. All are proving to be easy, sensible and very ridable. When free jumped the the DAMONTEZ LS young stock are loose, natural athletes and jumpers. His oldest progeny are already out performing successfully across all disciplines.
