In 2002, he presented the British Warmblood Champion and the British Sport Horse Champion, both originating from his first crop in Great Britain. After his return Dimaggio made a perfect debut as sire. Right from his first crop in Germany, all three presented colts, which were as well sold for top prices as foals at elite auctions, have been licensed. In the meantime, the number of licensed sons has increased to 20, thereunder FS Demiral, who was finalist at the Bundeschampionat for young dressage horses and is now winning up to Inter I.

Sophie trotted to her title of 1. Reserve Champion Mare in Rastede in 2010. The two-time record World Champion of young dressage horses Woodlander Farouche is as well out of a dam by Dimaggio. In 2006, a daughter of Dimaggio won the silver medal at the German Foal Championship in Lienen.

Among the 111 sport-tested offspring sired by Dimaggio 30 of them have current achievements in advanced (S) dressage classes.
