His name has become well-established on the current breeding scene. He seems to have inherited his quality and the ability to pass it on from his dam in particular.
United Way is a sire with an impressive ability to stamp his offspring. His offspring attract attention at nearly all foal and young stock sites. He passes on in particular his rectangular frame, his athleticism, and his terrific rideability to his offspring. Other qualities making this sire stand out from the crowd are his personality which makes him easy to be around and his positive attitude.
Willingness to perform and high-quality jumping – every breeder knows about these qualities exhibited by United Way. And also his offspring turn out to be greatly influenced by their TB ancestors and are always willing to perform. A particularly good group of 2023 stallion candidates demonstrates the reliability of his inheritance and his general ability for improvement on the basis of the mares he is bred to. At all inspection sites his foals are easily recognizable due to their distinctive type and way of moving. At a young age, this stallion is already known to stamp his offspring.

Sire
His sire Uriko is successfully shown to S*** level and is establishing more and more of a reputation for his quality offspring. A number of licensed sons, including champion and reserve champion at the Neumünster stallion grading, as well as showjumping offspring highly successful in young horse classes testify to Uriko’s class and importance for the breed.
Damline
Wodka ist die Mutter der gekörten Hengste Arturo, Clearway sowie Conway I und II. Acht ihrer Nachkommen haben Erfolge in Springen der Klasse S aufzuweisen! Darunter die Concerto II-Tochter Carassina, die Mutter von United Way. Diese erzielte unter dem Sattel von Nisse Lüneburg bereits Erfolge bis zur Klasse S***. 2008 wechselte sie in den Besitz von Udo Chistee – Schlosshotel Wendorf. Somit gelangte Carassina in den Beritt von Thomas Kleis. Neben zahlreichen internationalen Erfolgen siegte dieses Erfolgspaar im Deutschen Springderby im Jahre 2009 in Hamburg.
Nach ihrer sportlichen Laufbahn kehrte Carassina wieder zurück in die Zucht. Sie hatte bereits als Vierjährige aus der Anpaarung mit Cardino einen inzwischen in Australien erfolgreichen Nachkommen gebracht. Ihr erster Nachkomme nach der Sportkarriere ist der 2015 geborene United Way.
United Way’s bloodline deserves special attention for his dam sire, Concerto II. This Contender son which died from colic at just 5-year-old produced a rare count of successful showjumping offspring. With only a few daughters put to stud, these are considered exceptional gems.

Offspring of United Way
United Way had several championship foals from his first crops, including the winning colt of the Pinneberg breeding district, by United Way-Casall in 2020. In 2022, the United Way-Colman filly Paisley (Klaus Thiedemann, Oesterwurth), the highest priced lot of the Holsteiner elite foal auction was knocked down at 25,000 euros to France.
United Way produced a licensed son right away in his first season: Update was stallion graded at the main licensing in Neumünster in 2021 with the breeding director describing him as a “very leggy young stallion who thrilled the grading committee with awesome reflexes and speedy jumping”. Update is also available to the breeders through the Holsteiner Verband stallion keeping GmbH at Elmshorn.
