Donauperle
was an exceptional broodmare owned
by Rolling Oaks Farm. She produced 17 foals in 19 breeding
seasons. She always settled on her 30-day heat cycle,
foaling at the same time every year. Her wonderful
temperament made her easy to handle and breed, and her offspring were always the best regardless of what stallion she was bred to. Like their mother, "Perle's" daughters also have
wonderful temperaments, are athletic movers, and produce excellent foals.
In 1999 Donauperle earned Rolling Oaks Farm the Gerda Friedrichs Memorial
Award from the American Trakehner Association. The award recognizes outstanding breeding success of a Studbook
mare and her offspring. In 2000, after producing her last
foal Deperla, Donauperle was sadly euthanized. |
