The name of the Diarado has long been synonymous with world-class performance. This is also confirmed by his absolutely impressive statistics: More than 100 of his sons have been licensed worldwide, more than 50 of his offspring can boast successes in 1.60 metre courses up to the Olympic Games and six eventing horses have CCI5* format. This phenomenal heredity performance has earned Diarado currently 13th place in the WBFSH ranking of the world’s best show jumping sires. In the eventing fathers, he was able to defend his top position again this year, which he achieved for the first time in 2022. In 2025, Diarado was also awarded the title of elite stallion by the Oldenburg Association.

His references in the course currently include the European Championship team sixth Denver/Michael Greeve/NED, the EEF Nations Cup winner Dante MM/Alain Jufer/SUI, the Madrid, Doha and London winner Dexter Fontenis Z/Simon Delestre/FRA, the Wellington winner Donatello/Ashlee Bond/ISR and the fourth in the Grand Prix of Williamsburg/USA, Dicas/Margie Goldstein-Engle/USA. And then there are the Olympic and European Championship jumpers Dourados/Duarte Seabra/POR, the Vienna winner Kilmister/Philipp Weishaupt and the Herning winner and Oslo fourth Diarado’s Rose Elith/Jens Fredericson/SWE. Dialo/Jolie Marie Kühner won team gold and individual bronze at the European Children’s Championships in Gorla Minore/ITA as well as gold at the DJM.

The cross-country successful offspring of Diarado are led by the team Olympic champion from Paris/FRA and European Championship individual bronze medallist in Blenheim/GBR, JL Dublin/Tom McEwen/GBR, who previously secured team and individual gold at the European Championships in Avenches/SUI with Nicola Wilson/GBR, and the Olympic team eighth Hiarado/Jonelle Price/NZL. And then there are the team fifth in Olympic eventing in Tokyo/JPN, Diachello/Jesse Campbell/NZL, the CCI4* Lexington winner Diabolo/William Coleman, the CCI4* Aachen sixth Ducati D’Arville/Lara de Liederkerke-Meier/BEL, the CCI5* Lexington/USA ninth and German runner-up D’accord FRH/Christoph Wahler, the second in the CCIO4* Nations Cup, Dacapo/Laura Collett/GBR and the Junior European Championship team silver medallist Rohan van het Avenhof/Lien de Dycker/BEL.

His more than 100 licensed sons include our double German Champion and internationally highly successful Diaron OLD as well as the Olympic jumper and World Championship team bronze medallist Don Diarado/Maurice Tebbel, the World Championships successful Eurostar/James Arkins/AUS, the German Championships bronze medallist in the international Youngster Tour and silver winner in the Holstein Championships, Davis/Rolf-Göran Bengtsson/SWE, and Oreo Brownie H., sixth at the World Championships for young show jumpers.

The daughters of Diarado include the OS Champion Mare Jurwina, the Champion Mare of the Franz Strahl-Schäfer Show in Baden-Württemberg, Sleeping Beauty, and the mare Edwina, from whom the Holsteiner Kösieger of the Year 2018, Cadilo, comes, as well as the Oldenburg Vice Regional Champion Dakkara PS.

The immensely shapely Holstein licensing winner, stallion performance test record winner, bronze medallist at the German Championships (twice 9.0) and successful in 1.45 metre show jumping competitions Diarado is preparing to follow in the great footsteps of his legendary sire Diamant de Semilly, who won World Championship team gold in 2002 and European Championship team silver in 2003 and has been one of the world’s best show jumping sires according to the WBFSH ranking for years.

The dam Roxette I also produced the licensed and successful Diarado full brother Diadorado, who was successful up to 1.40 m show jumping.

Through the dam’s side, Diarado connects the Holstein sire legends Corrado I, Contender, Lord and Ramiro.

The granddam Kimberly III produced the licensed Crawford (1.50 m jump) as a full sibling to Roxette I./Philip Rüping and the mare Concordia la Silla (by Corrado I; 1.60 m-Spr.)/Alberto Michan/MEX, who in turn became the dam of the licensed stallion Honduras la Silla (by Mylord Carthago; 1.40 m-Spr.) and five other internationally successful offspring. Kimbery III also produced the two 1.60 metre jumpers C-Jay (by Carthago)/Johannes Ehning and Fortender (by For Pleasure) as well as Halo, descended from Humphrey, who competed in the British team at the European Eventing Championships in Blenheim/GBR in 2025 under Piggy March, and the mare Austera (by Carthago), who produced the licensed stallion Coloredus (by Corrado I).

The Roxette half-brother Halo (by Humphrey) stood. The half-brother won the Grand Prix of Riesenbeck under Johannes Ehning.

Diarado’s prosperous Holstein dam line 318 d 2 also produces the licensed stallions Chello I to III, Castelan I and II, Crawford, Coriano, Corofino I and II, Martell I to IV, and the show jumpers Cabrio/Felix Haßmann, Carlucci/Richard Robinson/GBR, Carthago’s Sun/Andreas Kreuzer, Curtis/Daniel Deußer and Isny/Felix Haßmann.
