BKS Chain Reaction

Colt   •   Born: 1 June 2009  •   Height: To make 147cm   •   Breed: Deutsches Reitpony   •   Breeder: Francesca Walker

His dam, St Pr St Bella Bagira, has stunning paces and fabulous conformation. She won her two qualifying rounds to compete at the Elite Mare Show at the Westphalian Championships 2007, with mostly 8s. She became reserve champion of her ring at the Elite Mare Show, gaining her State Premium title. She is a half sister to one of our other mares, St Pr St Naturell, and a full sister to St Pr St Bella Donna, who competed at the Elite Mare Show at the Westphalian Championships in 2004, finishing 9th in the championship ring.

His sire, Casino Royale K, became the Weser-Ems Stallion Licensing Champion in 2007, with a standing ovation from the audience. He received high praise from the licensing committee for his very good type and excellent paces, especially his "spectacularly impressive trot". This superb young stallion again demonstrated his quality by becoming Champion of the 3-year-old Riding Pony Stallion class at the Bundes-championate held in September 2008. More of his outstanding progeny, may be seen here.

Chain Reaction's damsire, Batman, was Reserve Champion of his licensing in 1998. He was second at the Westphalian Stallion Championships, and third in his Stallion Performance Test. He was ridden and presented by his owners' thirteen-year-old daughter and had many wins and placings from L Level through to Advanced in jumping and dressage. He competed at the Bundeschampionate in 2001 in dressage and jumping class  A in 5-year-old stallion classes, and in 2002 came 8th at the Bundeschampionate in the finals at class  L dressage. In 2002 he was Vice Champion at the Westphalian Championships in the 5 and 6-year-old stallion dressage pony class. He has 4 State Premium daughters, 4 Verband Premium daughters, and one licensed son. He is a son of the 1992 Licensing Champion, Bavarottie, and a grandson of the great champion stallion Black Boy.

Chain Reaction, the second colt born to his dam, St Pr St Bella Bagira, is a lovely chestnut with white blaze and is extremely uphill, with a super-active hindleg and expressive front. He has a sweet, biddable temper-ament and is an exciting stallion prospect for the future.
