The sire
Guzzi was approved as a premium stallion in 1997 and bought at auction, along with the champion EH Münchhausen TSF, by Gestüt Wiesenhof in Krefeld. A year later he won his 100 day test in a most impressive manner, as the champion in both dressage and jumping. He was trained and shown to S-level in dressage in Germany and most recently sold to Belgium.Guzzi's sire EH Herzzauber is the breed's only Verband elite stallion in North America and stands at stud in Canada. He was the champion in Neumünster in 1990 and his influence on the breed, even though he was sold in the mid 90s, remains big, mostly through his outstanding daughters. Guzzi's dam line traces back to the Angloarabian mare Galante II AA, and has produced a row of premium mares, including the Neumünster champion mare Gräfin Irina (a full sister to Guzzi).
