Kubinec in bronze

Osterhof stud lies in a beautiful countryside in the south of Germany. It's the home of Stöckle family and their world famous stallion Kubinec (Balaton x Kosmetika). It's not necessary to write much about the European -, World -, and All Nations Cup Champion, just have a look at his photos and those of his offspring! 

The other breeding stallions at Osterhof are Narym (Balaton x Nemara), who spent the 1999 season in Switzerland and Padishah (Drug x Purga) the promising youngster from Tersk Stud, he is in show training now. 

I was very impressed with the fine collection of beautiful mares at Osterhof, they really have some special pearls there! The fantastic Muscat daughters Promessa (out of Poslannitsa) and Reyah (out of Nariadnaia), Kobra (Balaton x Kosmetika) the full sister of Kubinec, Nostalgia (Neman x Neposa), Grenada (Kubinec x Senja) and Kalinka (Kubinec x Nida) to name only a few! And of course my personal *weakness*; the two 24 years old Aswan daughters Narada (out of Neposeda) and Nida (out of Naina)! I won't begin to describe them, because this will take too much space, so you better look at them by yourself: click here!
