His sire, Diarado is one of the most popular, and highest-ranked, stallions in Germany - a sire who impresses with exemplary ease at the jump, superior scope, a willingness to perform that is second to none, manoeuvrability and intelligence ... all attributes so necessary for today’s technical courses. Combined in his dam´s pedigree are Corrado I, Contender, Lord and Ramiro : four top sires in one line !
