Danone was the top stallion of the 2003 Swedish Koerung. His quality movement made him the deserving winner. His achievement is not surprising, considering the dressage consolidation of his bloodlines--De Niro as a sire and Weltmeyer as a damsire. His movement mechanics must be called optimal. In all three basic paces Danone moves always uphill, with much expression and action and a fantastically working hind leg.  He creates a beautiful picture, with his lovely topline and uphill build and very correct underpinnings. This young stallion, with his formidable dressage pedigree is a stallion one will hear much about in the future.
