This licensed Million Dollar son has a pedigree of exceptional value and a prominent lineage, with a high stud and sport profile proven in jumping classes up to 1.60m level.
While he cannot deny his sire, you can also clearly see his dam and this combination is just unique. The combination of top Belgian blood on the sire’s side with one of the very best Holsteiner mare families has resulted in an athlete with impressive ability and very bright prospects. At the same time he has great stud value and anticipation is running high to see his influence on the breeding programme.
He carries famous horses and Million’s Way is certain to make his way in sport and at stud. In view of his sire Million Dollar and his half-brother United Way’s reliable inheritance, backed up by performance mare Carassina, this stallion can definitely be expected to pass on many positive sport horse qualities. His correctness and good foundation deserve special mention and are definitely a major plus.

Sire
Million Dollar carries a rare concentration of top level sport performance genes. Listing Plot Blue, Vigo d’Arsouilles, and Cento, his pedigree reads like the Who’s Who of international sport horse breeding. Million Dollar clearly demonstrated what he is capable of in 2022. With Sophie Hinners he shone in classes up to 1.55m and won the Bratislava and Budapest Nations Cups with the German team.
Million Dollar has also proved his genetic ability, as his daughter Kalifa became National Champion of the five-year-old jumping horses in Warendorf in 2022. At the Holsteiner auctions he was represented by several highly interesting offspring, like for example La Douce, a mare knocked down at 50,000 euros to the USA.
Damline
Million's Way’s half-brother is United Way, a licensed stallion which has been winning over the breeders with his offspring already at a young age. Their dam, Carassina, is a unique mare, seeing that she first demonstrated her exceptional class as a sport horse with Thomas Kleis and went on to have a profound influence on the breed later.
The numerous international results of this dream combination include winning the German Jumping Derby in Hamburg in 2009. The second dam, Wodka, produced the licensed stallions Arturo, Clearway, Conway I and II as well as eight show jumping offspring with results to S level, including Chika's Way, a highly successful S level mare first shown by Janne-Friederike Meyer-Zimmermann and later Katrin Eckermann.
Million's Way’s damsire, Concerto II, deserves special attention in this exceptional pedigree as this Contender son has been able to produce successful jumping horses in rare concentration. With only few of his daughters put to stud, they are considered as precious gems.
Own performance of Million's Way
Million's Way completed 50-day performance testing in Neustadt upon Dosse in the autumn of 2022. With a final jumping weighted mark of 8.40, he was given 9.0 on willingness to perform and 8.75 on rideability (test rider) and character, and 8.5 on ability and jumping technique.
Brought into the sport at five-year-old by Selina Köhl, he won a young horse jumping class at A** and was placed at L level.
Due to colic and a staff reshuffle, Million's Way was not shown in competition in 2023. However, in December he was able to follow up on his previous results by placing at L level right away with Lucas Wenz.
We have high expectations for the first foal crop by Million's Way.
