Shu Fu

Description

Modern in cut, a made-to-measure pedigree and three exceptional basic gaits, this is how this chic chestnut stallion was discovered at the DSP Stallion Days 2020.

His brilliant talent for movement is based on the best dressage horses: Sire Sezuan was World Champion of young dressage horses at the age of five, six and seven and is undoubtedly one of the most sought-after dressage stallions of the present day. Under his trainer Dorothee Schneider, he won international competitions up to Inter I and is now trained up to Grand Prix level. On the breeding stage, the Danish Champion Stallion, record stallion performance test winner and Danish Dressage Horse Champion also dominates the action. He produced the two-time record stallion performance test winner Sezuan’s Donnerhall, the Vice World Champion and German Champion for young dressage horses Secret, the World Championships bronze medallist for young dressage horses Queenparks Wendy and the Oldenburg Reserve Champion Stallion So Perfect, to name just a few highlights.

Shu Fu’s dam’s sire Fürst Heinrich, who retired much too early, was Champion Stallion in 2001 in the 30-day test, Champion Stallion of the four-year-old main premium stallions at the Oldenburg licensing in 2002 and celebrated World Champion of five-year-old dressage horses in Verden in 2003. Within a few years, he developed into an absolute star sire with almost 50 licensed stallions and over 100 state premium mares.

With Weltmeyer and Donnerhall in the third and fourth generation, Shu Fu Blut combines two more legendary stamp stallions.

Shu Fu goes back to the mare line of Suse. This line produced the stallions Fürst Samarant, Videostar and Dark Sensation, among others. The successful sport horses of this line include the advanced (S) level dressage horses Fontainebleau by Fidermark and Donovan by Don Vino as well as numerous show jumpers, including Corey Z by Chellano Z (int.1.40m), Shaqiri (int.1.40m) and Stakkata (int.1.45m) by Stakkato and many more.In

his 50-day test in Schlieckau, ShuFu impressed the evaluation committee. Especially in the canter – “A galloping machine”, it said in the commentary. For this, Shu Fu received a smooth 10 (walk and trot 8.0 each), 9.0 for his interior values and willingness to perform, for rideability and overall impression. Of the foreign riders – Philipp Hess and Tessa Frank (in the intermediate test) – there was even a 9.5 in rideability. In addition, the chestnut stallion showed himself sovereign in gymnastics jumping (8.5), so that in the end a weighted dressage final score of 8.84 was calculated for him.

In his first tournament season, Shu Fu can qualify for the 2022 German Championships at the first attempt. He continued his successful career in 2023 and was rated with the dream score of 9.3 in a dressage horse test class M. In another start at this level, he qualified for the German Championships. In the meantime, he has arrived in the advanced class and can also record top placings here.

Shu Fu is also highly sought-after as a sire: With Sir Colorful
by Shu Fu – De Niro, he set the top price at the Verden Foal Spring, which was sold to Canada for €21,500.
