Meet OO7, the new Special Agent in our barn equipped with all the best spy abilities and now licensed to breed!

BOND was approved at the 2008 stallion inspection in Maine (USA) by the American Trakehner Association, impressing the spectators and judges with his undeniable stallion presence. Bond scored a 9 for Type!
Comments from the American judges;
Bond James Bond MB has both very good Trakehner and stallion type. Nobility, masculinity and harmony of body parts are exemplary in this stallion. His frame illustrates the desired strength in the top line. The shoulder is good. Saddle position is obvious. Bond had a fairly good walk with a four-beat rhythm. At the trot, he uses his joints well. The result was a gait that showed lightness, suspension, impulsion and engagement. Likewise, his canter had impulsion but could have had slightly more freedom in the shoulder. In his free jump phase, his front leg technique was good. Overall, Bond James Bond MB is a noble stallion, showing the desired "stallion presence". In-hand temperament is good.
Peron *Pg*
BOND is the first approved son of highly talented dressage stallion Oskar out of Barina by Graditz *E* (Peron *Pg*). From his Sire's Russian World Class lineage to his Dam's Premium and Olympic bloodlines….this athlete holds an impressive pedigree. Bond's Sire, Oskar II was imported from the famous Kirov Stud in Russia and shown successfully in Dressage up to Grand Prix Level! His Dam's Sire, Graditz *
E *, a Premium stallion whose reputation precedes him and his Great Grand Sire, Peron *Pg* the highest scoring stallion in Olympic history, also a winner of an Olympic Bronze Medal in 1996.

Bond fills a large space in our hearts for many reasons…his incredibly sweet nature, beauty, intelligence and movement hold us captive but mainly, it's because he is our first homebred approved stallion. Right from the moment of his birth, it was hard to deny what his purpose was going to be in life. We never dreamed one of our goals as breeders would be reached so soon! Well, here he is and I must say “the future looks bright for this young stallion as a breeding sire and in the show ring”.
