| Riccochet BMW Born April 25 2010 Hanoverian Colt Jumper Breeding Program
Rico was bred to be a top prospect for the H/J ring. Coming from a long line of performance horses Rico is already showing incredible balance, athletic ability and type. Rico is part of the Hanoverian Jumper Breeding Program as both his parents were accepted into the JBP book. Rico's dam, Greta, competed through 1.45m in Germany before a successful show career on the east coast hunter circuit. Greta was also named Champion at her Hanoverian Keuring at the age of 17 impressing all that saw her.
Rico's sire Romantic Star has become one of the most popular choices in breeding sporthorses. Romantic Star's distinctly beautiful form and tremendous presence instantly grabs the attention of all those in his wake. This modern, elegant stallion provides the extraordinary qualities which make the hearts of hunter riders and breeders beat faster: supermodel looks, supple, balanced gaits, sensational jumping form and ability, extreme rideability, and a truly noble and charming disposition. After a lengthy dressage career, he has now emerged as a shooting star among hunter stallions, winning nearly every class he has entered in the hunter ring. At his performance test in Germany, Romantic Star received a 10 for his character, 9's for temperament, willingness, and 8's for constitution, walk, canter, and rideability.
Romantic Star has proven his worth in the breeding shed, producing many premium awarded offspring who have then gone on to compete successfully in not only the hunters, but jumpers and dressage as well.
Rico is a very sweet, confident and outgoing colt. There is no question this boy has what is takes to be a star.
