Dubliner brims with energy and willingness to perform. Boasting long lines and a very good top-line, the stallion displays perfectly rhythmic and very ground-covering movement, always with an up-hill tendency. His first foal crops have shown him to pass on movement and elasticity to his offspring. His jumping is characterized by extraordinary front leg technique resulting from his natural carefulness as a jumper. Dubliner is a very sensitive stallion with tremendous potential. Under the saddle of Lucas Wenz, he has placed up to M* level in the past season.
Dubliner offspring are characterized by modernity, movement, and remarkable jumping quality. Take care to breed him to easy-going, well-adjusted mares.

Sire
His sire Dinken is among those stallions in the Holsteiner breeding programme attracting more and more attention for their quality offspring. He won Holsteiner six-year-old jumping horse State Champion and qualified for the Warendorf National Championships at five- and six-year-old. A severe tendon injury prevented Dinken from further pursuing his sport horse career. By now the Diarado son has succeeded in convincing breeders and riders with his ability to produce quality offspring. Dinken’s dam, Inken by Cassini I-Caretino, is one of the best brood mares in the Holsteiner breeding programme.
Damline
Dubliner’s damline traces back to stem 95, a long-time and reliable producer of exceptional sport horses and breeding stock, representatives including for example Romantika (W. Peters/D. Hafemeister) or Claudio (Bo Kristoffersen).
Dubliner is the first foal out of Cantura. Her dam’s produce includes the successful S level competitor Queichtal. The third dam, Maroni, used to be successfully shown to S level, herself. Most significantly, the damline carries three highly successful international stallions - Canturo, Cassini I and Coriano – in direct succession.
Own Performance of Dubliner
Dubliner underwent 14-day testing at Schlieckau in May 2021 with a final mark of 8.45 (jumping weighted). The same year, the stallion completed sport testing with a weighted final mark of 8.45 in Verden. In 2022, Dubliner completed the Verden sport test with a jumping weighted final mark of 8.37. He received 8.5 on ability, 8.4 on technique and overall impression and 8.3 on canter.
At his first outing in competition, Dubliner won the first test of the Holsteiner state championship right away, scoring 8.8. In the finale of the four-year-old jumping horses, the stallion finished fourth with Massimo Bonomi.
At five- and six-year-old, with Dubliner adopting a calmer approach in the arena, his results include a number of placings in young horse jumping classes at L level. Since Lucas Wenz has taken over the reins of this Dinken son, Dubliner has placed up to M* level.

Offspring of Dubliner
Dubliner had some very interesting offspring from his first foal crops, with two foals selected for and sold at Holsteiner foal auctions, one of them the extremely typey Dubliner-Chello I colt Dynamite, bred by Sönke Eggers, Struvenhütten and the other a Dubliner-Casall daughter, bred by Hof am Sylvert-Rörden GbR, Witsum/Föhr. The first Dubliner offspring having started their career under saddle allow for a positive impression of the stallion’s inheritance. His daughters stood out in particular in the 2024 mare performance tests: a Dubliner-Ikarus Son daughter excelled in the test at station with her performance attitude and good free jumping (8.5, each), completing the test with a total mark of 8.05 in the top range of the mares tested. A daughter out of a Cyrkon/TB dam completed field testing with the second best result (8.55) of the group. In particular her free jumping turned heads and the judges awarded the top mark 10. She also scored a remarkable 9.0 on rideabilty. Another mare by Dubliner-Quidam de Revel qualified for the Elmshorn Holsteiner Verband mare show.
