Prince Noir is the second Hanoverian stallion imported from Germany by Silverdene Stud ... joining Calypso Classic, to make their contribution to
the Australian sporthorse gene pool.

This beautiful black stallion was 100 day performance tested in Germany, receiving excellent marks for his rideability, Dressage ability and paces. 

He is by Prince Thatch - a Thoroughbred stallion with outstanding movement and quality,  who is currently enjoying immense European popularity having produced many horses with  movement and ultra elegant looks.  Prince Thatch has produced youngsters with excellent trainable temperaments and has been a significant influence on the trend favouring the lighter more athletic type.

Prince Thatch has influenced a strong trend towards the lighter more elegant Warmblood performance horse.  This is the type that is sought by the World's leading riders and trainers as they have proven their talent for self carriage and collection. 

Prince Noir's dam is by Absatz - a legendary producer of Dressage horses in the Hanoverian Stud Book.

Prince Noir is registered with the Hanoverian Horse Society of Australia.

German visitor Jöern (Jörn) Kubelke (pictured right) is a leading rider for the Hanoverian Auction (Verden).  He was interviewed by Cyberhorse's Tracy Mayhew when he conducted a 4 day clinic for members of the Queensland Dressage Squad and the Queensland Young Rider Squad at the Pine Lodge Equestrian Park in Thornlands, in March 2006. 

Jöern rides at the Hanoverian Auction and is a Pferdewirtschaftsmeister (trainer of Bereiters).  He has trained with greats such as the German team trainer, Holger Schmezer and when he completed his studies, went on to manage Arthur Kottas-Heldenberg’s private yard.  Jöern now runs is own training yard at Mulsumer Berg in Germany (www.joern-kubelke.de) where he is assisted by his wife Ulricha and staff.  Jöern rides 10-12 horses a day.

Jöern’s first visit to Australia was in September 2005 and he said that he was impressed with the high standard of horses. “On my first trip I was very surprised to see the quality of horses in Australia. You have some very good thoroughbreds and using warmblood stallions over these quality thoroughbred mares is a positive thing for your breeding programs.”

Jöern told Tracy that he doesn’t have a favourite ‘line’ of horses but mentioned that Weltmeyer and Donnerhall progeny display expressive movement and Rubinstein stock have very good temperaments and trainability. He also rates highly thoroughbred sires such as Prince Thatch (sire of Prince Noir), Laurie’s Crusader and Cardinal and acknowledges their significant contribution to German breeding programs.
