This gorgeous imported son of the renowned black hanoverian stallion, Lauries As, is set to be a huge asset to the New Zealand warmblood breeders.

With proven dressage breeding and wonderful paces and work ethic Lion King is proving to be a versatile stallion for breeding across disciplines. He has a wonderful and kind nature with super rideability.
Premium Sire Line
Lauries As needs no introduction. He was a Premium Stallion at the German Hanoverian licensing 2004 and after his 30 day performance test went on to qualify for the 5 and 6 year old Bundeschampionates and the World Young Horse Championship. He was purchased at the Elite Auction and exported to Remi Stud in Australia where he became Australia's Advanced Champion in 2010 and multiple Prix St George Champion in 2011.
Remi Lion King's grand-sire, Londonderry, also needs no introduction being the 1997 Licensing Champion as well as becoming the German Riding Horse Champion in Verden, and then winning the Bundeschampionate for 4 year olds in Warendorf. He is also the sire of the 2006 Bundeschampionate winner, Locksley II. Londonderry, who passed away in 2017, was competing successfully at FEI level.
His sire, Lauries Crusader xx, has produced a dynasty in his own lifetime and, in 2006, became the only TB stallion to be awarded the coveted ‘Hanoverian Stallion of the Year’ trophy.
The beautiful State Premium mare Pik Lady isfrom a very accomplished performance pedigree. She is already dam of 2 successful dressage horses, Rubina S and Rubin S both by Rohdiamant.
Her sire, Pik Bube I is considered one of the most versatile sires in recent German breeding history. He competed very successfully at Grand Prix dressage with Herbert Rehbein.
Pik Lady’s dam, Goldika, produced successful dressage horses, in particular Dac by Donnerhall, who competed successfully at Prix St George level.
Also in the pedigree is the high-class showjumper, Golden Miller, who was successful in showjumping with Albert Riesenbeck. He was winner of the Rastede Grand Prix and the Oldenburg Stallion Championship. Golden Miller went on to produce numerous top showjumpers.
Prestigious Dam Line
On his damside, Remi Lion King also has top performing bloodlines. He is from the mare Remi Waltzing Matilda, a half-sister to the eventing horse Underdiscussion (formerly Remi Lethal Weapon). Underdiscussion was winner of the CCI 2* at Tattersalls in Ireland and the CICO3* at the World Equestrian Festival at Aachen in 2012.
