Legendary Stallion Sandro Hit Passed Away

The legendary breeding stallion Sandro Hit has passed away at age 28. Sandro Hit created a totally new bloodline for dressage horse breeding and gave new impetus to the dressage wing of Paul Schockemöhle's stallion station in the 2000s.

"At the blessed age of 28 year the foundation stallion and line creator had to be let go of with a heavy heart," Schockemöhle communicated. "Due to a brief infection, his general condition deteriorated. The painful treatment was something we didn't want to put him through out of respect for him, because according to the vet team, there was no prospect for improvement."
