Character – Temperament – Talent – Pedigree – Show Results-   Finale has it ALL!

“Finale is an incredible stallion. He is extremely rideable and anyone can ride him. He has the best temperament and work ethic and will do anything I ask of him.”

Finale was bred and trained to FEI Grand Prix by his owner and rider Chelsey Sibley. Read this interview with Chelsey about Finale: https://kwpn-na.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/Gelders-Horses-in-North-America.pdf

Pedigree information: 
Finale’s sire, Contester II has an impressive pedigree. Contender, Contester II’s Sire, dominated German breeding values for many years and produced a number of Olympic jumping stallions and mares. Both Contender’s Sire Calypso II and Grandsire Ramiro Z were also successful showjumpers at the highest levels
Contester is out of the mare ‘F-Lilianes’ who is by Lancetto. Lancetto showed Grand Prix dressage and was a son of the famous Landgraf I. Landgraf is one of the most important foundation stallions of the Holsteiner studbook. He is known for passing on incredible qualities for top sport and great minds to his offspring.

Finale’s dam is by Vosmaer Keur, a Gelders approved FEI Grand Prix stallion that was exported to the USA and also ridden by Chelsey. Vosmaer has a very high percentage of offspring performing at top levels in relation to the number of offspring he has. Vosmaer’s approved son IJsselmeer was very successful at Grand Prix but also a talented jumper. From the direct line of Finale’s dam come several other upper level dressage horses.
