St.Pr.St. Wischhoffs Catania
Diamond x Brilliant

In 2017, we were honored to begin a breed lease on this amazing mare from Fox Creek Farm. An imported States Premium mare, Catania has been a valuable asset to our program, with her unique bloodlines, exquisite conformation and movement. Sired by the Dutch riding pony Diamond and out of a daughter of the legendary Brilliant, Catania brings German and Dutch riding pony royalty to our program. In 2021, our lease has expired and she returns back to her owner.
To her foals, Catania brought an incredible hind end with a powerful step, swinging back, correct legs, well set neck and a lovely, typey head. She is sweet and incredibly people-oriented. In May 2018, she foaled a leggy, tall palomino colt we named CGF Moone Boy, sired by the young and exciting Fox Creek's Masterpiece. This colt was awarded Premium at his Westfalen NA inspection and sold to an FEI dressage trainer. Her exquisite 2019 colt, full brother to CGF Moone Boy, also scored Premium at inspection and is currently available. In 2020, she provided us with a stunning, large colt sired by Cocktailzauber that we have opted to retain.
We are grateful for the opportunity to incorporate her into our program; she has left an indelible mark on us a breeders!
