SOLD in 2007 Congratulations Cilla! Commander has joined Cooldanz in England. We look forward to a bright future with Commander and John Whitaker.
No short cuts have been taken with this stunning young pinto Contango stallion son. His progress in training is carefully monitored, and always appropriate for his level of physical and mental development... with the long term goal of competing at GP, though true to his pedigree, Commander seems to want to jump. We are all very impressed by this talented athletic young stallion and look forward to a promising future. Serious inquiries invited. Commander was the high scoring colt for movement at his 2004 Oldenburg Registry North America Inspection. Commander is not related to Samber (or Samber's dam Tina). Click here for Commander's pedigree.
Contango's sire Contender
Commander's dam - Fancy Ruler - is a 1982 Main Mare Book Oldenburg mare (Bold Ruler line 7/8ths TB). Fancy Ruler was presented to the German Oldenburg Verband / Oldenburg Registry North America in 1995 at an Inspection at which Dr. Roland Ramsauer officiated. Dr. Ramsauer was the German Breeding Director for the German Oldenburg Verband (in Germany) and the Breeding Director for the Oldenburg Registry North America in the United States. In 1995 there was only one Oldenburg Registry in North America (which was called Oldenburg Registry North America) and it was the only legal licensee of the German Oldenburg Verband operating in the US. Dr. Ramsauer felt that Fancy ruler was of exceptional quality with respect to her conformation, movement and pedigree and well worthy of acceptance into the Oldenburg Main Mare Book. What Dr. Ramsauer did in 1995 is much the same as years ago, when some Dutch inspector approved Samber’s dam - Tina. Essentially, in 1995 Dr. Rolland Ramsauer had the authority and subsequently approved Fancy Ruler as a Main Mare Book Oldenburg Mare for both the German Oldenburg Verband and the Oldenburg Registry North America, adding a new source of approved pinto color for Oldenburg breeding. (For more about Fancy Ruler see her page.)
