Falentine is by the well-known Elite Stallion, Wertherson (Werther), and out of the States Premium mare, SPS Pik Dame. SPS Pik Dame was the ONLY states premium full sister to the well known stallions Pik Bube I and II. She presented numerous excellent foals, including the stallion prospect Willkommen Q. 

Wertherson was foaled in Germany in 1983 and was 100 days tested at Adelheidsdorf in 1986. He was a son of the very popular Werther out of the States Premium mare Walesca by Waldhorn. Wertherson was a strikingly beautiful coppery chestnut stallion standing 16.3 hands. His sire, Werther, was awarded the first Hanoverian Stallion of the Year Award in Germany and because his FN rank for siring dressage, materiale, jumping and driving horses was at or near the top for nearly a decade, he earned the title of "Versatile Werther."

Wertherson himself was an extremely successful FEI competitor, and in his last year of competition earned a median score of over 65% at Prix St. Georges and over 66% at Intermediare I.

Wertherson has been recognized as a filly sire. He has to his credit numerous Elite Mares and many inspection site champion mares.

Falentine is a multitalented mare who competed successfully at the Preliminary level in eventing and was an exceptional dressage horse. At her mare inspection, Falentine scored 7s and 8s, and received a 9 for her head.

Her previous foal, Saphira, by ES Scimitar (Silvio x Carballina - Cor de la Bryere), was presented with excellent comments at the Hanoverian inspection at Hilltop Farm. The Judge's comments included "lovey foal, with good type, beautiful head and neck like the dam..." Saphira was Falentine's first foal and proved Falentine to be an exceptional broodmare.

The Rapture R / Falentine 2008 foal is offered for sale in utero for $15,000.
